  • Seismic Design of Bridges in British Columbia: Ten-Year Review
    SEISMIC DESIGN OF BRIDGES IN BRITISH COLUMBIA: TEN-YEAR REVIEW Jamie McINTYRE Structural Engineer, Hatch Mott MacDonald, Vancouver Canada [email protected] Marc GÉRIN Consultant, Ottawa Canada [email protected] Casey LEGGETT Structural Engineer, Hatch Mott MacDonald, Vancouver Canada [email protected] ABSTRACT: Seismic design of bridges in British Columbia has evolved significantly in the last ten years. Developments have comprised three major changes in seismic design practice: (1) improved understanding of seismic hazard—including raising the design earthquake from a 475-year return period to 2475-year return period and better knowledge of the contribution of the nearby Cascadia subduction zone; (2) a shift to a performance-based design philosophy with emphasis on improved post-earthquake performance—including multiple service and damage objectives for multiple levels of ground motions; and (3) increased sophistication of seismic analyses—including both inertial analyses and analyses for liquefaction hazards. The result of these changes should be bridges that perform better and remain functional post-earthquake. These changes are expected to encourage alternatives to the traditional use of column plastic hinging, such as base-isolation. Over the last ten years, base-isolation has been used on few bridges in British Columbia—primarily retrofits of existing structures; however, given its ability to preserve post-earthquake functionality, base-isolation should be a serious consideration for any project. 1. Introduction – Evolution of Seismic Design Practice Seismic design of bridges in British Columbia has evolved significantly in the last ten years, going from a bridge design code using outdated principles to a state of the art new code that implements performance- based design.

  • Response to the KPMG Study: Pickering Lands Aviation Sector Analysis
    Response to the KPMG Study: Pickering Lands Aviation Sector Analysis Land Over Landings April 18, 2020 (rev. April 26, 2020) © Land Over Landings, 2020 1 Contents Overview and General Observations / 3 Extracts and Detailed Comments on the Reports / 5 The Supply and Demand Report / 6 The Contextual Bridge Report / 27 The Airport Type and Role Report / 28 The Revenue Generation and Economic Impact Assessment Report / 47 End Note / 49 2 Overview and General Observations In 2016, Transport Canada tasked KPMG to forecast capacity and demand in the southern Ontario airport system for the 20-year period 2016 to 2036. Following completion of the supply and demand study, KPMG conducted an additional three studies, which took so long to produce that some details of the December 2016 forecast report are now significantly out of date, and the later, newer sections diverge from the first report in tone, intent, and perspective. Because of the disjointed structure (four separate reports purporting to be one) and the extended timeline, a lot of material is repeated – and even contradicted – in subsequent reports. Regardless, the essential conclusion is clear, and is expressed frequently and unequivocally in the Supply and Demand Report (December 2016) – in fact, it is repeated no fewer than eighteen times, not counting five times in the executive summary. No additional airport in southern Ontario will be needed to meet 2036 demand. The report shows that, with modest capacity expansions of some existing airports, southern Ontario airport capacity will not only meet forecasted demand but will exceed it by a huge margin. The report further states that adequate runway and terminal building capacity exists within the system as a whole, with the introduction of high-speed rail services in the region.

  • August 1, 2017 Newsletter
    NEWSLETTER AUGUST 2017 “A national organization dedicated to promoting the viability of Regional and Community Airports across Canada” www.rcacc.ca RCAC MEMBER AIRPORT PROFILEJJul: Sunshine Coast Regional Airport (CYHS), BC The District of Sechelt, an incorporated municipal government under the statutes of British Columbia, is the owner and current operator of the previously-known Sechelt-Gibsons Municipal Airport. On September 13, 2014, Sechelt Airport was renamed the Sunshine Coast Regional Airport. The existing facilities were first developed in 1966 by the Elphinstone Aero Club with a gravel runway, which was paved in 1975.
