Precast Fender Installation at Duke Point Wharf
Surespan Structures partnered with Ruskin Construction to supply a massive precast concrete fender for the Duke Point Wharf near Nanaimo, BC. The fender panel, measuring 22 feet tall, 34 feet long, and 10 feet wide, was cast on-site at the dock location. Weighing an impressive 390,000 lbs, the panel was precisely lifted into place by the Arctic Tuk.
This large-scale project highlighted Surespan’s expertise in delivering durable precast structures tailored to specific site requirements. Casting the panel on-site minimized transportation challenges and ensured seamless integration with the existing infrastructure.
Our commitment to quality stands to be a key component in our company approach. The completed wharf now sits as an iconic part of Nanaimo, BC, providing jobs and security for many.
