The primary challenge of the project was the building’s unique design – inspired by a Japanese lantern and designed by OSO from Tokyo. The building form is a series of stacked boxes cantilevered with a steel structure. This design required intricate mechanical system collaboration with multiple construction disciplines and tenants.

Prefabrication

Our prefabrication hangar has the capacity to address large scale mechanical contracting needs while ensuring quality and precision. Our collaborative process ensures a high-quality product that fits accurately and saves on build time.

Trade Partner Services

Whatever a client is looking for, if we don’t have the capability in-house, we know the right people for the job. We work with like-minded companies that take pride in their work and have an affinity for innovation and collaboration.

Project Outcomes

Due to the difficult nature of building mechanical systems within the steel structure, our team found success in implementing solutions through VDC. Specific systems that were prefabricated allowed us to mitigate time and space and spatial contraints were full fabrication of public bathroom groups, mechnical and water entry rooms, and distribution routing. Our commissioning process was designed to accomodate the different stakeholders including base building and multiple tenant improvements.

“Working with True Mechanical at 400 West Georgia was a pleasure and a perfect example of professionalism and teamwork!”
