Completed lined channel A total of 10,150m 2 of CC material was installed by Ledcor Group on scheldule in under six weeks, on a remote site and in difficult weather conditions. Ledcor were impressed with their first experience of installing CC, noting several advantages of using CC compared to traditional concreting methods: speed and ease of installation, minimal amount of training or specialist equipment required, ability to install CC in all weather conditions, minimal waste material compared to shotcreting. CC also provided substantial cost savings for the project.
“The end result is that there would have been an extra zero on the end of the price quote, if we had elected to use Shotcrete.”
Bud Fassnacht Ledcor Group, Superintendent
“As an engineer, I liked the fact that CC was adaptable to changes in channel shape as we had segments of trapezoidal shape that had to transition to a rectangular shape. The drape characteristic allowed the CC to be placed on a pretty rough surface. Finally it seems that any future damages to the CC will be easily fixed by patching. This should result in very low maintenance costs.” Michael Graham Senior Geotechnical Engineer, Norwest Corporation
