Our client had asked to come up with a way to permanently add load to column with less than two inches of space to fit the jack in.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>

Using a specialized flat jack that fills up with grout and hardens and can be used in the most adverse conditions. The flat jack was able to accomplish this and achieve the desired load.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>

It was such a success there was an article written in Pile Driver Magazine to illustrate how it was achieved.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The Fort Rouge Transit Garage is Winnipeg Transit \u2019s central and primary maintenance and repair facility, handling the majority of the total upkeep for the city \u2019s transit fleet. Built in 1969, Fort Rouge Garage\u00a0\u00a0was considered state-of-the-art; the Storage Garage features a special drive-through wash bay, as well as additional areas to check oil, water, tires and lights of each bus after the day\u2019s run.\u00a0<\/p>

A separate maintenance and repair building also handles scheduled maintenance inspections and major repairs.Now more than a half-century old, the original buildings at the facility could no longer handle the capacity required of a larger bus fleet. Therefore, the City of Winnipeg made the decision back in 2016 to expand the Maintenance and Repair Garage to better meet current and future needs.<\/p>
