Bridge and overpass drainage work presents considerable challenges that require advanced expertise, appropriate equipment, and the ability to find innovative solutions to sometimes unusual issues.
Expertise
Forlam has a proven track record in drainage pipe installation to capture rainwater under high-rise infrastructure. Forlam was a significant collaborator on the Turcot interchange overhaul project, and has once again demonstrated our know-how in completing projects as complex as the installation of HDPE pipes more than 125 feet above the ground. Our team also helped complete work on the Champlain Bridge and the Mercier Bridge, to name a few.
Our expertise enables us to meet major challenges:
HDPE pipe fusion
Fusion and manufacture of HDPE fittings
Work at height with lifting and pipe handling techniques
General management of construction sites
Equipment
Cutting-edge expertise cannot be acquired without having the right equipment. This is why we ensure that our material resources are always modern and maintained to perfection, so we can undertake the most ambitious projects.
- Equipment to fuse HDPE piping in large quantities for all diameters
- Specialized equipment to manufacture HDPE fittings and parts
- Heavy machinery (mechanical shovels, high-capacity lifting platforms, etc.)
- Site vehicles and equipment
