PORTFOLIO
NICOL BUILDING (CARLETON UNIVERSITY CAMPUS), OTTAWA, ON
Josh was the Civil Engineering Lead and Engineer of Record for this project. This 115,000-square-foot, six-storey facility included classrooms, event spaces, and collaborative areas. The project involved working on a congested campus that required detailed designs of the existing buried utilities, underground pedestrian tunnels, large- diameter storm sewers, and sanitary and water mains running beneath existing buildings. Providing pedestrian connection points to the nearby bus route and bicycle parking was essential to the university. This project involved detailed designs in support of Site Plan Approval, producing specifications and unit items for the tender, assistance during the tender process, contract administration for civil items, periodic inspections throughout construction, and project close-out services.

KING EAST PHASE 2 SUBDIVISION, RICHMOND HILL, ON Our involvement in the comprehensive residential project encompassing the development of 171 new residential lots has been an exciting venture for us at Aplin Martin. The project's technical features include the integration of new municipal roads, alongside the incorporation of essential components such as storm sewers, sanitary sewers, and water mains along these roads, enhancing the overall infrastructure of the community. Notably, the construction of a 1650mm diameter bypass storm sewer was a significant highlight, facilitating the efficient conveyance of existing overland flows within the pipe, further bolstering the site's stormwater management capabilities. Additionally, our team implemented on-lot LID features, emphasizing the importance of achieving water balance criteria for sustainable and environmentally conscious development.
Aplin Martin played a pivotal role in preparing all essential civil engineering deliverables, including the site grading plan, site servicing plan, stormwater management report, and erosion and sediment control plan, all crucial in supporting the Subdivision Agreement. Moreover, our commitment extended to providing comprehensive civil contract administration services during the construction phase, ensuring the smooth and efficient execution of the project. Despite the challenges presented by the coordination and approval processes from York Region for work on King Road, as well as the intricate task of integrating an existing overland flow route into a 1650mm diameter concrete storm sewer, our team remained dedicated to overcoming these obstacles and delivering a successful and sustainable residential development.
PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS
Total Site Area = 9.0 ha Residential Lot Count = 171 Lots New municipal road = >1,000 m
Storm bypass sewer = 1650 mm diameter Water Balance = Infiltration swales/galleries and 300 mm topsoil

125 STEACY GARDENS, BROCKVILLE, ON
Josh acted as the Civil Project Manager and Engineering Lead for this 4-storey, 32-unit residential slab-on- grade building, which included an outdoor parking lot and a small landscaped area. This project required confirming the legal boundaries of the site, verifying the existing services available within the road, and working around a large storm sewer that ran through the property within an easement. Protection measures for the large storm sewer were required. A mix of surface and underground stormwater storage was utilized to protect existing vegetation along the perimeter of the site in order to avoid retaining walls. Grading along the property lines and building was designed to ensure all site runoff was captured and treated onsite. An oil and grit separator was installed in order to meet the requirements of the City and local conservation authority.
