Lincoln Electric

Lincoln Electric is a commercial warehouse and distribution center located in SE Calgary which consists of commercial truck loading bays distributing the company’s products all over Western Canada.

Over time, the existing wall received many hard impacts from repeated collisions when tractor-trailers would back up too far and would impact the wall. This caused instability to the exterior envelope as cracks appeared on the inside of the masonry wall.

SKYGRiD proposed a demolition and reconstruction/reinforcement of the wall, one section at a time to maintain the integrity of the wall, and to ensure the operations of the distribution center were a least disruptive as possible.
