Modernization of the John Hart Dam in Canada

On the picturesque east coast of Vancouver Island, in the middle of the “Salmon Capital of the World”, Campbell River, BAUER Foundations Canada Inc. successfully carried out modernization work on the John Hart Dam. A plastic concrete cut-off wall was installed here to increase the seismic stability and ensure protection of the downstream communities. In addition to the cut-off wall work, our experts carried out soil improvement on soft sediments. This project is not only an integral component of power supply and flood protection, but also aims at safeguarding the reliability of the facilities. Despite wintry cold and tight working conditions, our team managed the construction tasks thanks to the latest methods and highly specialized equipment – including digital tools like b-tronic and the Virtual Site Installer.
