Cavanaugh Transfer Station Fire Suppression Building
Project Details
The Toronto Hydro Fire Suppression Building is a compact yet crucial project, covering just 357 square feet. Despite its small size, it houses the essential pump and system for the nearby electrical transfer station. Tilt Wall’s expertise in fast, durable construction made tilt-up the ideal choice for this project. The concrete walls provide both structural strength and thermal efficiency, ensuring the building’s integrity and protecting the fire suppression system from freezing during the cold Toronto winters.
Located in Toronto, Ontario, the project was completed in 2019. The general contractor for the project was Black & McDonald, with structural engineering provided by Barry-Bryan Associates. The development and ownership of the station belong to Toronto Hydro. The suppression building consists of six panels in total, with 881 square feet of insulated panels and 162 square feet of non-insulated panels.
