Designing Québec’s New Île d’Orléans Bridge QUÉBEC CITY, QUÉBEC, CANADA

TYLin, in partnership with AtkinsRéalis, has been selected to provide detailed design services and construction phase services for the Île D’Orléans Bridge, a new cable-stayed bridge over the St. Lawrence River. The signature bridge will link Québec City to Île d’Orléans, a distance of close to 2.1 kilometres.

5

The design is the result of a collaboration between local and international partners forming the Groupe Héritage Île d’Orléans (GHIO). TYLin’s client, GHIO, consisting of Dragados Canada, Inc. and EBC, was awarded the contract to build the new bridge.

Replacing a deteriorating, close to 90-year-old suspension bridge, the new Île-d’Orléans Bridge represents an impressive blend of technical innovation, aesthetics, and sustainability, redefining the connectivity between the Capitale-Nationale and the territory of Île d’Orléans. Integrating the bridge as a symbol of the territory’s cultural heritage is significant and reflected in the project team’s commitment to preserving the identity of this region.

TYLin Bridge Sector Leader Marwan Nader, PhD, PE, P.Eng, Ing, acknowledged that the project represents critical infrastructure in Québec and underscores TYLin’s presence as a premier structural engineer in the region.

“We are excited to serve as Lead Bridge Engineer for this important project. The new Île-d’Orléans Bridge will significantly improve transportation for residents and businesses while standing strong as a landmark structure for Québec for decades to come,” he says.

6

Scheduled for completion by the end of 2027, the bridge consists of a 520-metre-long north approach, a 790-metre-long, three-span cable-stayed bridge, and a 740-metre-long south approach. The bridge superstructure is continuous with only two expansion joints, one at each abutment, for reduced bridge maintenance.

The new crossing will provide a 3.5-metre-wide traffic lane in each direction and 2.5-metre-wide shoulders on each side of the deck. The deck also incorporates 3-metre-wide multipurpose paths in each direction for maintenance vehicles.

The bridge design features four belvederes positioned at deck level on the north and south pylon legs, offering panoramic views of the Montmorency Falls and downtown Québec City on the horizon. The absence of bracing on the V-shaped pylons keeps views unobstructed, enhancing the experience of crossing the St. Lawrence River.

TYLin is working closely with subconsultant partners Fugro for geotechnical investigations, Tourney Consulting Group (TCG) for durability studies, and Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel Laboratory (BLWTL) for wind studies.

RapidRide A & F Line Reinvestment Program KING COUNTY, WASHINGTON, USA RapidRide is the premier bus rapid transit (BRT) product for King County Metro (Metro) in Washington that provides frequent, fast, reliable, efficient, and environmentally friendly bus service in major arterial corridors. It launched with the RapidRide A Line in 2010, and has since expanded to seven lines (A-G), with five more in implementation phases. The RapidRide system has been shown to improve overall transit experience, brand recognition, and increase ridership across King County.

In 2018, Metro initiated the RapidRide Expansion Program to establish new, even higher standards for RapidRide service, specifically with regards to improving levels of service, passenger safety and security, speed and reliability, passenger facilities, and technological innovations. The 2021 Metro Connects plan established a goal to reinvest in each of the original six existing RapidRide lines to ensure each line meets the new standards. This starts with a significant reinvestment in the A Line, followed by the F Line.

RapidRide buses have strong branding, providing premier service throughout the County.

14

TYLin and the team led by Project Manager Ryan Abbotts, AICP, will work with Metro to review current conditions of the RapidRide A & F Lines to identify and implement capital elements to improve the corridors according to reinvestment prioritization analyses. Alignment changes and station relocations will also be assessed with new transit systems expanding around the lines. These include the Link Light Rail Extension and Sound Transit’s new Stride BRT line (S1).

This project is the first of its kind for reinvestment planning in Metro’s BRT programs. TYLin’s planning and design for this project will serve to establish best practices and methodologies for analysis, prioritization, and implementation for subsequent RapidRide line reinvestment programs. As a result, RapidRide will continue to build brand awareness and prove itself as Metro’s modern, competitive, efficient, and practical transportation choice for people traveling throughout King County.

How iPerform Can Radically Improve Your Building’s Energy ROI Introba is TYLin’s Buildings Sector partner as we collaborate with clients to plan and create digital “living systems” that are smart, secure, resilient, and connected. The following article “How iPerform Can Radically Improve Your Building’s Performance”

by Rachel Lieberman is based on a recent thought leadership piece from Introba.

Buildings play a significant role in consuming energy and contributing to the world’s overall greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. According to the World Green Building Council, buildings account for 39% of global energyrelated carbon emissions, with 28% coming from operations, such as the energy needed to heat, cool, and power the buildings, and the remaining 11% from construction and materials.

The design and construction industries are facing unprecedented pressure to produce more efficient and technologically advanced buildings – and to do it faster and more cheaply. Inevitably, this leads to a drop in quality, with developers handing over buildings that have numerous design, implementation, and operational issues, most of which are HVAC-related.

Meet iPerform. Developed alongside Introba technology partner, CopperTree Analytics, iPerform provides a strategic automated approach to building commissioning and operations, as well as a data-driven approach to optimizing energy efficiency, minimizing GHG emissions, reducing operating costs, and maximizing occupant comfort. iPerform integrates into building systems to automatically identify operational issues across a wide range of data, a process also known as monitoringbased commissioning (MBCx). Detection and diagnosis processes are fully automated with no human contact, keeping information accurate and consistent over time, and proactively preventing commissioning concerns before they arise.

Case Study. The Introba team worked with an energy efficiency partner to help analyze a government building in Melbourne, Australia, using iPerform for a year. At the time, the building had been optimized for energy efficiency over several years, but the client also needed to improve high-efficiency scores to keep its strong National Australian Built Environment Rating System (NABERS) program rating.

After one month of using iPerform, the team identified six efficiency opportunities that were wasting energy. The building’s air handling units had an economizer sequence that resulted in outdoor air dampers to needlessly open to 100% capacity when the outside air temperature was less than the return air temperature from within the building.

The team recommended a new economizer sequence that would consider the difference in the system’s temperature measurements, with the outside air dampers only opened to a minimum position for ventilation when the conditions showed the difference was greater than a given threshold. This solution resulted in many benefits, including a 20% reduction in energy consumption, 9,596 kWh of monthly energy savings, and 123 metric tons of avoided yearly CO2e emissions.

Byrd Park Reservoir Improvements RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, USA To meet the potable water needs of the residents, businesses, industries, and regional wholesale customers of the City of Richmond, Virginia, the City built the Byrd Park Reservoir in 1876. In the early 1970s, the facility was upgraded with a prestressed concrete roof that fully enclosed the open-air reservoir to form two 25-million-gallon tanks (total capacity 50 million-gallons).

The existing concrete tank roof is reaching the end of its useful life and being scheduled to be replaced by two new 4-acre aluminum roofs. Greeley and Hansen, A TYLin Company, performed the condition assessment of the reservoir and designed the replacement of the reservoir roof.

This tank roof replacement and other facility improvements project is being implemented so that the City, with its current population of 750,000 people, continues to provide high-quality water and distribution of water to customers.

Approximately 48% of the City’s potable water flows through this critical piece of infrastructure, so the work is being performed in phases to ensure that half of the Reservoir always remains in service. The tanks will be provided with new overflow systems, which have free discharge vents at grade level at the tank earth berms.

Each overflow vent is provided with a small structural security enclosure that is recessed into the earthen berms to minimize park user impacts.

Additional improvements included: installing a tank mixing system for water quality improvement; replacing existing tank outlet gates; replacing existing tank inlet and outlet valves; and constructing a new transmission main around the tanks for improved system reliability and redundancy. Additionally, the project includes electrical and instrumentation and control improvements, with tank security system enhancements.

Peninsula Corridor Electrification Project (PCEP) SAN CARLOS, CALIFORNIA, USA Caltrain is a customer-focused rail system offering safe, reliable, accessible, and sustainable transportation service along the San Francisco Peninsula in Northern California, through the South Bay to San Jose. To transform the system into a faster, more efficient, and sustainable service while advancing its equity goals, Caltrain launched the Peninsula Corridor Electrification Project (PCEP), which is converting 51 miles of diesel territory to electrified service.

Budgeted at USD 2.44 billion, the PCEP project includes constructing an overhead contact system, traction power facilities, modification of existing signaling and grade crossings, a new redundant data network for traction power assets, and Electric Multiple Units (EMUs) that utilize the traction power system. These service upgrades will improve riders’ experience and reduce the environmental impact of the operating railroad, including cutting engine noise and greenhouse gas emissions.

Through a contract with Prime Gannett Fleming, TYLin is serving as the owner representative for Caltrain for the design-build project.

28

The scope of work includes driving the traction power, communications, and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) elements of the project by providing technical oversight during design and construction.

Constructing an electrified (alternating current) AC system on brownfield property presents many unique opportunities and challenges, including building along the narrow right-of-way of an active railroad.

Additionally, many of the stakeholders from Caltrain and TASI, their operation and maintenance provider, had minimal experience with AC operations.

Using workshops and partnering sessions, TYLin’s team familiarized the numerous stakeholders regarding the challenges to be overcome with their new electric operations. As a result, we had a direct hand in assisting Caltrain in the development of its first operating rules for electrified territory.

The new electrified service schedule is scheduled to begin in fall 2024.

A POST-EARTHQUAKE BRIDGE INSPECTION.

Earthquake Disaster Prevention in Taiwan TAIPEI, TAIWAN On April 3, 2024, at 7:58 a.m. China Standard Time, a strong earthquake with a magnitude of 7.2 and a depth of only 15.5 kilometers struck the Taiwan city of Hualien. Earthquake intensity in Hualien reached level 6+, causing the collapse of some buildings, damage to bridges, and suspension of the local mass rapid transit system.

Fortunately, the Taiwan Freeway Bureau had begun a three-phase seismic retrofit project for bridges in 1999, with TYLin’s Taiwan team undertaking the research for retrofit specifications. Thanks to collaboration among consulting companies, government agencies, and academic institutions, seismic standards, seismic design technology, construction quality, and comprehensive systems have continuously improved.

The first phase of the retrofit project was completed in December 2009, the second phase in June 2016, and the third phase is scheduled to be gradually contracted and constructed in 2024. As a result of these efforts, no damage or disruptions occurred on the highways during

30

the recent earthquake, allowing these roads to provide lifeline routes for disaster relief successfully.

Effective response measures following an earthquake are crucial. As a professional bridge design consulting company, TYLin has extensive knowledge and practical experience in structural engineering, including bridge inspections.

In addition to traditional manual inspections, we use drones to conduct bridge inspections, capturing high-resolution images and utilizing AI technology to help identify structural crack locations. Additionally, immediately after a seismic event, we conduct emergency post-earthquake bridge inspections to assess damage and assist in determining whether traffic closures or conditional access are necessary.

Seismic retrofitting before an earthquake and inspections after an earthquake are crucial to ensuring uninterrupted city operations and the safety of its residents. We look forward to building a safer future through our efforts.

TYLin Europe / Latin America (TYLin) has provided services for L9 for more than a decade. Once it is completed, the line will have a total length of 47.8 kilometers, the majority of which runs underground through a 12-meter-diameter tunnel. That will make it one of Europe’s longest underground lines. The line will have 52 stations, with 20 of them connecting to other modes of transportation.

Structurally, the line is divided into four sections. The section that runs through the city center is Section III, which is currently still under construction and includes its tunnel and associated stations. TYLin is providing Construction Management services for Section III, specifically the tunnel and Sarrià & Mandri stations, which are two of L9’s deepest ones.

Challenges associated with Section III include the following: An urban environment: Throughout the entire L9 project, construction planning and execution has been extremely ambitious and technically complex, requiring years of planning and execution. The project is constructing a major, mostly underground metro line in a densely populated city, introducing challenges such as the need to minimize impacts on existing streets and buildings. There are also varying

space limitations, requiring the implementation of special construction techniques.

Deep stations: The depth of the stations in Section III ranges mostly from 25 to 50 meters, reaching up to 75 meters in some cases, including the two stations in TYLin’s scope of work. To allow construction at these depths, a special architectural design is required, characterized by a 26-meter-diameter vertical shaft structure. The strategic design allows stations to be built in a limited space where construction can progress in highly urbanized spaces independently from the tunnel. Images show vertical shaft construction for deep stations.

Blasting operations: The use of explosives for excavating the hardest materials for the stations presents additional challenges, such as controlling vibrations and noise levels to minimize impacts on buildings and the surrounding environment. To study the vibration levels and their transmission, a vibration study using elemental wave analysis was conducted at each station to characterize the rock mass. Based on the results, the drilling layout, sequencing, and delay of the shots have been defined for each station to minimize the generated vibrations and ensure that the levels are within current regulations.

The L9 project, particularly Section III that passes through the city center, stands out as an engineering marvel for its modernity, advanced technology, and attention to user comfort and convenience. The line also plays a crucial role in boosting public transport in Barcelona and adding exceptional value to its communities for decades to come. Section III will be commissioned progressively through 2029.

INSIGHTS

2024 ITE Sandbox Competition Our City Solutions team chose to address wildfire risks in Idaho Falls, Idaho, and extreme heat risks in Billings, Montana. Our approach involved evaluating the existing transportation systems in each location and their vulnerabilities in emergencies. Using this analysis, the team developed a plan incorporating strategies to improve resilience before, during, and after such events.

Billings’ 5th Avenue as a heat-resilient corridor.

A team from City Solutions, including Krupa Gajjar, Manas Subbaraman, Melvin Wah, Miguel Perez Luna, AICP, Sarah Mawdsley, AICP, Sarah Raykhman, and Sydney Maves, participated in the 2024 Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Sandbox Competition and was selected as one of two finalists for the Professional Competition category.

The goal of the competition was to apply “a variety of strategic, programmatic, and tactical activities to improve the resilience of transportation infrastructure in response to four potential climate-related or naturally occurring threats: Coastal Flooding, Wildfire, Winter Storms, and Extreme Heat.” Participants created a comprehensive plan to address climate-related risks for two of four events, including both mitigation and adaptation strategies, along with a conceptual infrastructure design improvement.

To complement the plan, the team redesigned a vital corridor in each location to better support communities during emergencies. In Idaho Falls, they proposed a contraflow lane system on Skyline Drive, which connects residents to the regional airport and major thoroughfares.

This system can be activated during evacuations to facilitate mobility by allocating space for priority modes and increasing roadway capacity.

In Billings, they focused on transforming a section of 5th Avenue in Downtown Billings into a heat-resilient corridor.

This redesign includes strategic connections to cooling centers and public gathering spaces, providing residents and employees with essential respite from extreme heat.

City Solutions’ Sarah Mawdsley will represent the team during the final presentation at the Joint ITE International and Mid-Colonial District Annual Meeting and Exhibition in Philadelphia in July.

EWR Terminal A Earns 5-Star Rating, Named World’s Best New Airport Terminal

EWR Terminal C Security Checkpoint Benches Win AIA New York Design Merit Award

NEWARK, NEW JERSEY, USA

NEWARK, NEW JERSEY, USA

Skytrax, the preeminent international air transport rating organization, recently awarded the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey’s Terminal A at Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) a prestigious 5-Star Airport Terminal Rating and named it the World’s Best New Airport Terminal.

TYLin’s recent Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) project in New Jersey received a prestigious Design Merit Award from the American Institute of Architects, New York Chapter (AIA New York) for its innovative approach to passenger comfort. The project installed a series of new custom-designed “recomposure” benches just beyond security checkpoints, allowing passengers to stop and reorganize after going through security – and out of the way of the very busy airside corridor. Previously, passengers had no location for this, forcing everyone, including people with disabilities, the elderly, and travelers with children, to sit on the floor or wherever they could find space.

The rating was awarded after a detailed audit of Terminal A’s facilities, operations, and provision of customer service. The 5-Star terminal rating recognizes airport terminals that provide exceptional standards of facilities and customer service across all front-line areas of the airport environment.

TYLin’s Aviation team served as expert program management partners on the award-winning Terminal A project, a recognition that underscores our commitment to delivering world-class infrastructure solutions to airports worldwide.
