Starting a new project next month

Was informed today by one of my clients (Active Fire and safety) that my services (coring) will be needed here beginning next month. He mentioned it was a 44 floor project. Looking forward to the views

Sounds great. Might be some great views next summer. Maybe Vancouver House will be done by then.

they shotcrete to allow the excavation to proceed and then depending on design leave a 2' or so gap and form a wall and after fill the void with drain rock after the wall is waterproofed. second option has been insulation and then pour a one side wall against the shotcrete or existing building.
