Project Detail
The Tsawwassen Ferry Terminal is BC Ferries largest and most environmentally exposed terminal. The North and South breakwaters protect vessels from adverse weather conditions and provide landing zones and navigational protection against tidal current flows.
This Project was for the structural life extension to the North and South Breakwaters and consisted of coordinating deliveries with steel pipe pile supplier appointed by BC Ferries; transfer of site steel pipe piles stored at BC Ferries Fleet Maintenance Unit; temporarily remove and reinstate electrical, utilities and slab hardware; replace select cathodic protection components affected by construction staging and activities; install steel pipe piles; supply and install two levels of steel straps across the face of the cells and connect the straps to the piles; supply and install patching of the steel sheet piles as required; supply, install, and tension anchor rods through the pile pairs at the cell intersection; supply and install new guardrails, handrails and bollards as indicated; replace all fall protection points as indicated; install BC Ferries-supplied timber fender panel at N10 on North breakwater; and supply and install timber elements at S10 on South Breakwater.
