      SHAPE

      CALGARY, ALBERTA . The Destination Deerfoot City project involves the redevelopment of the existing Deerfoot Mall
      located in northeast Calgary. The project includes the conversion of the mall into an open-air regional centre, offering
      a unique new shopping experience in Calgary.
          The construction of Phase 1 (now completed) included building a 12,500 ft 2 (1,260 m2) single-story structure with
      a drive-thru on the west side, and a two-storey, 38,000 ft 2 (3,530 m2) building with retail units on the lower level,
      professional office space on the upper level and an atrium with an architecturally designed staircase and elevator.
          The existing north mall run was converted into two new commercial retail units of approximately 14,000 ft 2 (1,300
      m ) and 35,000 ft 2 (3,250 m2). New façades on the north building frontage were built to preserve as much of the

      THEIA PARTNERS & DREAM UNLIMITED

      OTTAWA, ONTARIO. Zibi is a multi-phased redevelopment project in the downtown cores of both Ottawa, Ontario and
      Gatineau, Quebec. The master-planned community overlooks the Ottawa River and is framed by the Portage Bridge
      and Waterfront Quarter to the east and Chaudière Crossing and Albert Island to the west. The 34-acre project spans
      two provinces and is partnered with the local Algonquin First Nation.
         The first residential building, O Condominiums, was completed in December with the first residents now moved in.
      The modern six-storey building has 70 units —each with bright, open-concept layouts and up to three-bedrooms. The
      ground floor offers commercial retail space, and the building is topped off with a shared rooftop terrace offering views
      of Parliament and the waterfront.
         Ledcor is providing construction management services on the Zibi project; supplying pre-construction expertise
      throughout the design development phase of each project; and directing construction through to substantial
      completion.
         A few of the complexities of this project include substantial remediation, working in Canada’s two official

       BAYONNE, NEW JERSEY. In March 2019, Ledcor completed a new

       located in Bayonne, New Jersey, is over 158,000 ft 2 (14,680 m2) and
       includes an 18-pump fuel station.
           Costco is the anchor tenant for Harbor View Marketplace at
       Bayonne’s Military Ocean Terminal which is under redevelopment.
       Initially designed as a port terminal in the 1930s, the man-made
       peninsula became a U.S. Navy dry-docking center in World War II
       and later became a U.S. Army base in 1967.
           Soil conditions on this man-made peninsula required the use
       of 2,188 rigid inclusion piles ranging in depth from 20ft to 40ft, to
       reduce the risk of unacceptable settlement. The rigid inclusion piles
       were required under the building slab, building foundations, utility
       piping, man-hole structures, light pole bases, and fuel tanks.

           Ledcor was awarded the construction of the Northern Lights College Trades Centre project after a competitive bid
       process. Following the demolition of the older Second World War-era structures, Ledcor constructed a new 43,000 ft 2
       (3,995 m2) trades facility that connects via an indoor walkway to the main building of the Dawson Creek campus.
           The new building also provides physical capacity for up to 96 new full-time-equivalent spaces - a 33% increase. This
       will create better access for prospective trades students in Northern Lights College’s campus region across northern
       BC. The new addition is LEED Gold and includes extensive mass timber with glulam structure, cross-laminated timber
       panelling and modularized wood roof panels.

   The final complex will include retail and office space, a fitness centre, yoga studio, and two and a half levels of
underground parking. Linking the two buildings will be a 7,000 ft 2 (650 m2) glass-covered galleria providing a pedestrian
pathway and waterfront views.
   Reflecting an authentic West Coast aesthetic, this high-end residential facility contains materials and products sourced
from all over the globe, including stone and cabinetry from Italy.
   Ledcor is providing pre-construction and construction services for both phases of this project. The project is situated near
the ocean and at the foot of the mountains.

       WHITE SPRUCE PIPELINE
       TC ENERGY

       FORT MACKAY, ALBERTA. The White Spruce Pipeline Project involved construction of a 50.8 cm (20 in), 72 km (45 mi) pipeline
       designed to carry light synthetic crude oil (SCO) produced at Canadian Natural Resources’ (CNRL) Horizon Site through a
       receipt meter station to the MacKay Terminal, located about 40 km (25 mi) west of Fort McMurray.
          The project included the construction of six valve sites, three horizontal directional drill crossings of major rivers in the
       region, and completion of the electric and instrumentation work to commission the pipeline for service.
          Construction of the White Spruce Pipeline has enabled increased production out of CNRL and makes use of the recently
       completed Grand Rapids Pipeline System (constructed to transport product to Edmonton.)
          TC Energy has several active pipeline projects in the region and leverages existing pipeline right of ways (ROW) to the
       furthest extent to reduce the overall project footprint.

ALBIAN SANDS JACKPINE MINE
CANADIAN NATURAL RESOURCES LTD. (CNRL)

JACKPINE MINE, ALBERTA. In 2018, Ledcor started work at Canadian Natural Resources’ site at the Jackpine Mine for
the Sand Cell 1 (East Splitter Dyke Level 2) internal drains extension project. Sand Cell 1 is an external tailings facility
with increasing water levels, thus requiring the extension of existing outtakes. The scope of the work included the
extension of 18 existing outtakes. To do this, Ledcor was hired to dig at each tie in point in between collector pipe and
outtake pipe, cut the existing outtake pipe and fuse a new outtake pipe.
   The project was challenging at times because of the irregular topography of the area, making it difficult to
excavate trenches for the installation of the new outtakes of up to seven meters deep. To finish the project within the
scheduled date provided by CNRL, several excavators were used at the same time to dig and backfill trenches.

       SOUTHWEST
       CALGARY RING ROAD
       RIVER REALIGNMENT
       GOVERNMENT OF ALBERTA

       CALGARY, ALBERTA. The Southwest Calgary Ring Road
       (SWCRR) project is a 31 km (19 mi), six- and eight-lane
       divided highway along the southwest portion of Calgary.
       Ledcor is an integrated team member of the Design Build
       Joint Venture (DBJV) for the project with Kiewit and Graham
       called KGL. Part of the project involved realigning sections of
       Elbow River and Fish Creek to make way for the new highway.
          The “fish window” is a brief period between April 16 and
       May 1 and the only time that the SWCRR team could realign
       sections of the rivers. The design-build team planned for
       months to prepare for the fish window. The team had to
       secure permits from Alberta Environment and Parks and
       Fisheries and Oceans Canada before commencing work.
          Permitting proved challenging in the environmentally
       sensitive Elbow River. Upstream communities had seen
       extensive damage during Calgary’s 2013 floods and
       downstream contained the Glenmore Reservoir – a major
       source of Calgary’s drinking water. Through multiple design
       iterations and a series of extensive 2D and 3D hydraulic
       analysis, the final design resulted in minimal impacts to the
       floodplain.
          Meeting the May 1 realignment deadline was critical
       to the project’s schedule. Missing the deadline would
       have landlocked 1 million cubic meters of excavation
       and embankment in the Elbow Valley for an additional
       construction season.
          To realign the river sections, crews had to redirect the
       water to a new 2,000 m (6,650 ft) bioengineered channel to
       minimize the impact on fish and habitat. The bioengineered
       channel mimicked the existing channel’s cross-section,
       curvature, natural morphology and velocity. Living trees,
       shrubs and grasses with tree roots, woody debris and rocks
       were integrated to increase the strength and structure of
       the streambank. Riparian zones were planted and left to
       revegetate for 10 months during which time the construction
       of three bridges over the new channel had to be significantly
       progressed before activating the channel.
          The work was completed safely, on time and with minimal
       impacts to the surrounding environment.
