Webinar  - 0.075 CEU

Duration: 42 m

Presented by Félix Bédard, P.Eng. M.Eng., Vice President and Co-Founder, Elema and Tarana Haque, M.A.Sc., P.Eng., Technical Sales Manager, Cast Connex 

This presentation will explore the design and engineering of the Longueuil Downtown Lot 2 project, which is part of a multi-million-dollar real estate development for the city’s transit-oriented development (TOD) initiative – an upcoming urban centre in the Greater Montreal region.

This project is made up of two 33-storey residential towers, each located on either side of the Longueuil–Université-de-Sherbrooke metro terminal tunnel. Its podium feature allows the towers above to overhang the infrastructures of the tunnels and platforms of the metro station while providing access for STM (Société de transport de Montréal) transit users to the station below. To provide commercial space and a food court in the podium feature, the design includes impressive “tree-shaped” steel structures which span the tunnels and platforms of the metro station below.

In this presentation, learn about the design and engineering of this structural steel project, along with the challenges of building over an existing transit line. Learn how the design team incorporated flexible design practices to account for existing yet imprecise infrastructure. Explore the architectural programming and how the architecturally exposed structural steel (AESS) trees complete with custom-designed cast steel nodes enabled large free-spans and architecture for commercial space and access for transit users to the metro tunnels and platform.
