McTavish Pump Station
Montreal, Quebec
The historic McTavish Pump Station belongs to the City of Montréal, constructed in 1928-1932 and in operation every day, this critical post-disaster building ensures efficient distribution of drinking water throughout Montreal.
Our team performed several rapid tests using our wireless Larzé technology through our data-driven, sensing-based structural analysis approach. Global and localized tests of the building were completed to:
-
Evaluate the integrity between building wings
-
Evaluate in-plane and out-of-plane flexibility of floors
-
Evaluate the properties and integrity of the masonry walls
-
Determine the zero seismic level
-
Conduct Sensequake’s patented seismic evaluation without structural drawings or finite-element models
ent models
Our analysis team was able to take a deep look into the structure, providing in-depth integrity and full seismic performance evaluations for both structural and non-structural components based solely on the measured data using our patented methodology.
As a result of this approach, the design loads were greatly reduced through the optimization of the model. This led to a much more reduced retrofit approach, saving time and greatly reducing material costs.
