Located in Vancouver, Canada’s Central Business District, The Stack is the tallest office tower in Vancouver at a height of 530 ft and 37 stories. At 550,000 SF, the new building is also one of the region’s largest office buildings.
As a new and modernized office building, it was important for the building’s construction, quality and durability to align with specific standards. Concrete testing and post-tension cable inspections contributed to achieving the building’s unconventional design.
The tower is comprised of four stacked boxes. The third box of the stack is rotated to sit at an angle and provide a twist on the conventional office tower design.
Concrete testing involved examination of the material’s composition, strength and durability to regulatory standards. Post-tension cable inspections employed advanced technologies to assess the integrity of these critical structural elements.
EXP provided essential reports and recommendations to contribute to the overall safety and longevity of the building.
