Marcon fabricated the heavy-duty ring girders that provide critical structural reinforcement to the penstock, ensuring it remains secure during a major seismic event.
Precision metalwork was required to meet the exacting tolerances necessary for integration into BC Hydro’s existing infrastructure.
All components were delivered on time and on spec, supporting a seamless installation timeline for Kiewit and BC Hydro.
The project required close coordination with engineering teams to meet rigorous seismic safety standards.
Fabricated electrical boxes and hatch covers were customized to site-specific needs, balancing durability with ease of access for maintenance teams.
This work forms part of BC Hydro’s long-term commitment to infrastructure resilience and public safety in the event of an earthquake.
