Oakville Firehall #8 reconsiders what is possible when looking at the construction of a building type that is meant to be robust. This building will combine known technology – Glulam (Glue Laminated Timber) and CLT (Cross Laminated Timber) – and provide both structural and envelope elements as a complete mass timber solution that is modular, panelized and easily repeatable.

The renovations of the Peterborough Social Services Division and the Peterborough Employment Resource Centre took place across 30,000 sq.ft. of office space over 4 floors in 3 buildings. The project was subdivided into two major tenders, with as many as 5 phases within each tender as it was critical to ensure that both departments remained operational throughout construction, and to limit disruption of daily operations for all staff.

The concept for the Barrie-Simcoe Emergency Services Campus is to bring together the Barrie Police Service, Barrie Fire and Emergency Service and Simcoe County Paramedic Services together on a shared campus in a partnership arrangement where each party will benefit. Through shared space and staff amenities, each partner will have access to more efficient and improved facilities as compared to what would be feasible or affordable in separate standalone buildings.
