Message from the President<br />
McElhanney is local everywhere in Western Canada. We find new ways, year after<br />
year, to contribute to the communities where we live, work, and play.<br />
We do, however, take on some interesting international projects, which fit with our<br />
areas of expertise. The two projects we feature in this issue of <strong>Newsfeed</strong> shed light<br />
on how our work abroad is extremely impactful at a community level. Read about<br />
the Atal Setu, McElhanney’s award-winning cable-stayed bridge project that united<br />
three isolated states in Northern India, and the mapping project in Ethiopia, where<br />
our work could potentially reveal significant geothermal energy sources for local<br />
communities. These are great examples of the hundreds of international projects<br />
that we have completed in many countries over the past 50 years.<br />
As you likely know, I will be on sabbatical from September 24 to December 30. I<br />
thank Colin Adam for taking on the acting President and CEO role during this time.<br />
I look forward to seeing you all upon my return to start the New Year. Until then,<br />
enjoy the rest of summer, fall, and into the holiday season with your families.<br />
Happy reading!<br />

Geothermal exploration in the Eastern Rift Valley<br />
in Africa<br />
By: Michelle Grady<br />
A view from the sky in the Aero Turbo Commander.<br />
In 2016, Vancouver's Steve Fraser and Derek Odlum<br />
headed off to Ethiopia to fly the Eastern Rift Valley for<br />
a geothermal energy exploration project for Ormat, an<br />
American alternative and renewable energy company.<br />
“We’ve done several projects with Ormat over the<br />
years,” says Steve Fraser, who provided field supervision<br />
and training. “In fact, this LiDAR project was a<br />
direct award based on past work experience together.”<br />
Other McElhanney projects for Ormat were in Southeast<br />
Asia, Nevada, and California.<br />
“When looking to see whether there’s geothermal<br />
activity in an area, a good indicator is whether the water<br />
coming out of the ground is very hot,” says Dan Tresa,<br />
Manager of Mapping branch. “This tends to be the<br />
case in places where the plate tectonics are separating,<br />
as opposed to subduction zones where the plates are<br />
overlapping.” The Eastern Rift Valley is such an area,<br />
and since the Ethiopian portion of the valley is very<br />
active with volcanoes, the government has known for<br />
some time that there is geothermal energy in the area to<br />
harvest.<br />
“To exploit this resource for power generation, they<br />
need to locate the best places to drill – this means<br />
they’re looking for fault lines and features on the ground<br />
that may be under tree cover and are hard to detect,”<br />
says Dan. This is where Derek and Steve come in:<br />
LiDAR helps create a model of the surface of the terrain<br />
to detect these linear features.<br />
McElhanney was contracted by Ormat to fly LiDAR<br />
over a 1,640km 2 area, and McElhanney sub-contracted<br />
thermal infrared photography to Itres Research of<br />
Calgary, to help more easily reveal thermal hot spots.<br />
Kicking off the project<br />
Steve and Derek were based out of the nation’s capital,<br />
Addis Ababa, near the airport that they needed to<br />
access each day for flying. When asked what a typical<br />
day looked like for the two of them, Steve laughs,<br />
“There wasn’t one!” Each day, they'd start with the<br />
weather report, because the weather dictated whether<br />
they could fly or not. “If the weather wasn’t good for<br />
flying, everything got put on hold,” says Steve. If they<br />
had clear skies, they’d make sure the ground crews<br />
were in place, then get through airport security – which<br />
was quite different from Canada’s.<br />

The flight team preparing to take off.<br />
“When you work in a place like Ethiopia, the government<br />
is very protective,” says Dan. “In Ethiopia, there<br />
are no private planes, not just anyone can go out<br />
and get their license.” Because of this, Derek – who<br />
navigated the plane – and Steve had to wear an official<br />
airman’s shirt with the appropriate number of stripes on<br />
the epaulettes. “They don’t care who you are, you have<br />
to look the part,” laughs Dan. “So we made sure they<br />
looked official.”<br />
Once they had donned their official garb each morning,<br />
they’d walk across the tarmac to where their plane<br />
was kept. “This was almost a 30-minute walk away,<br />
but we’d walk by a bunch of huge planes so this part<br />
was actually really interesting,” says Derek, who did the<br />
navigating for the pilot of the plane and the data acquisition<br />
for this project. “Once we arrived at the plane –<br />
which was an Aero Turbo Commander, a pressurized<br />
aircraft with a jet turbine engine versus the piston engine<br />
planes we use here – we would take off and be in the<br />
plane all day, usually for 5 to 6 hours, before I’d return<br />
and Steve would download the data.”<br />
Collecting the data<br />
Derek spent each day flying the flight path he and Steve<br />
had planned. Not only was the project about data<br />
acquisition and interpretation, but there was a knowledge<br />
transfer component that both Steve and Derek<br />
participated in and enjoyed. “There were usually a few<br />
government staff in the plane with me while we flew,”<br />
says Derek. “I’d be training them on how to operate<br />
the LiDAR system. They would operate it and I’d walk<br />
them through the steps and oversee their work. It felt<br />
like we were pioneering the industry of LiDAR in Ethiopia<br />
because LiDAR data acquisition was new for them. But<br />
they were all super smart people, really willing to learn,<br />
and I really enjoyed this aspect of the project.”<br />
Once Derek had flown the entire flight plan for the day,<br />
he would return to base where Steve would begin the<br />
data processing. “Once I received the data, I’d ensure it<br />
was entered into the georeferenced, unclassified point<br />
cloud,” says Steve. “For security reasons, we had to<br />
do all data processing in the government offices. We<br />
trained several of their staff to work through the data<br />
from GNSS and Inertial processing to computing the<br />
point cloud.”<br />

Though it sounds like the two had a seamless tag<br />
team going throughout the project, they still faced<br />
their fair share of obstacles. “Logistically, we had many<br />
challenges,” says Steve. “Cultural differences and<br />
language barriers aside, we had to pay for everything in<br />
cash, and getting a hold of enough local currency was<br />
a constant challenge.” Money seemed to be on both<br />
Derek and Steve’s list of challenges. “Getting money out<br />
of the ATMs was like a lottery,” says Derek. “Sometimes<br />
they worked and sometimes they didn’t.”<br />
Steve and Derek stayed in Ethiopia collecting and<br />
processing data for 20 days; the Vancouver Mapping<br />
branch completed the rest of the processing, classification,<br />
and editing was done over the next three months<br />
back in Vancouver.<br />
crew. “Ethiopia’s history runs quite deep,” he says. “It’s<br />
referred to as the ‘Cradle of Humanity.’ Being a part of<br />
this project and seeing this history was probably the<br />
most amazing part of being there. Besides the fake pilot<br />
shirts, which I still have.”<br />
When asked if he enjoys these international projects,<br />
Steve has mixed feelings. “At home, we have a huge<br />
base of support – there’s always someone around to<br />
ask for help. When you’re abroad, you’re very much left<br />
to your own devices since there’s basically a 24-hour<br />
Project wrap up<br />
Having returned home and had time to decompress,<br />
Steve and Derek reflect on the project with positive<br />
feelings. “I was pleasantly surprised by the local culture<br />
and the people,” says Steve. “I found everyone to be<br />
really open and very friendly.” Derek notes that when<br />
they wrapped up the LiDAR work, he was able to<br />
cruise around the Eastern Rift Valley with the flight<br />
Derek enjoying a break in his "official" pilot's shirt.<br />

during unexpected<br />
natural disasters<br />

The flight crew hard at work.<br />
delay between asking a question and getting an<br />
answer,” he says. “The international work is way more<br />
challenging, but there’s a reward and a real sense of<br />
accomplishment when it all works out.”<br />
Dan agrees that the work can be complicated to pull<br />
off. “In Canada, you don’t have to have permits to fly<br />
any specific path; in Ethiopia, the Information Network<br />
Security Agency must approve all flight paths,” says<br />
Dan. Because of all these hurdles, Ormat, our client,<br />
has been very happy with our team’s work. “Just the<br />
fact that we could carry the project out impressed them,<br />
because it’s certainly not an easy project,” he says.<br />
Both Steve and Derek were happy to return home after<br />
such an intensive project, but Derek misses one thing<br />
in particular: the coffee. “The coffee was excellent,” he<br />
says enthusiastically.<br />
Our Tampa Bay office recently had a near miss, as it<br />
was in the direct path of Hurricane Irma. Luckily, its<br />
path changed at the last minute, and though the area<br />
was still severely impacted, all our employees were<br />
accounted for. This event as well as the wildfires<br />
we’ve been experiencing in Western Canada are an<br />
opportunity to examine our protocols and ensure we<br />
are prepared for future emergencies.<br />
Staying safe at home and work is about planning.<br />
We develop plans to prevent loss from occurring.<br />
With natural disasters and other similar emergencies,<br />
we plan and prepare for them the best we can and<br />
execute our plans before, during, and after the event.<br />
Actively planning can mean the difference between<br />
life and death.<br />
I encourage all employees to take a moment at home<br />
and at work to think about how prepared you are if<br />
an emergency occurred tomorrow. Are you prepared<br />
to survive days without access to water, communication<br />
networks, and potentially emergency first<br />
responders? Could you go weeks without electricity?<br />
If you had to quickly grab everything you need and<br />
evacuate on very short notice, would you be ready?<br />
Do you know the Emergency Response Plan at your<br />
office? Take the time to answer these questions,<br />
know the potential emergencies locally, and have a<br />
plan in place. Better to prepare than to regret.<br />

The Atal Setu connects previously isolated<br />
communities in three Indian states<br />
By: Raj Singh<br />
The Atal Setu creates a critical link for communities on either side of the bridge.<br />
Addressing the client’s objectives<br />
The Atal Setu is the first cable-stayed bridge in India<br />
procured under a design-build contract to connect<br />
the states of Punjab and Jammu & Kashmir across<br />
the River Ravi in Northern India. This new connection<br />
has reduced travel times by over four hours, and<br />
created a critical link for emergency response access<br />
to the Kashmir Valley. In August 2010, Border Roads<br />
Organization of the Indian Ministry of Defense selected<br />
the contractor team of IRCON/SP Singla Constructions<br />
Pvt. Ltd. to construct the 592m bridge through a<br />
highly competitive design-build bidding process. The<br />
contractor engaged McElhanney as the prime consultant<br />
for the conceptual and detailed design, construction<br />
engineering, and site support aspects of the project.<br />
The foremost challenge for McElhanney’s team was to<br />
develop a design concept that suited the unique site<br />
conditions and reduced construction cost and duration<br />
while respecting the bid documents’ constraints.<br />
Project complexity<br />
The bridge site is in a high seismic region near the<br />
Eurasian and Indian tectonic plates, where several<br />
severe earthquakes have occurred. The site’s high<br />
seismic activity and strong wind conditions of 140km/h<br />
posed unique challenges. The extremely narrow 13.2mwide<br />
two-lane deck over a 350m main span was vulnerable<br />
to aerodynamic instability, meaning that stability<br />
under high winds needed to be carefully considered<br />
during erection and operation. Steep rocky banks and<br />
large fluctuations in the river water levels made the<br />
erection of the main span segments from below very<br />
difficult. Because the side spans were unconventionally<br />
shorter than the main span, the imbalanced superstructure<br />
created significant uplift forces at the abutment.<br />
To address the bridge erection challenges from the<br />
river, the team developed a customized gantry to lift<br />
the superstructure steel segments from overhead<br />
and hoist them into position, transporting them along<br />
the side spans, which were completed on falsework<br />
prior to the main span cantilevering operations.<br />
MCSL Quarterly Newsletter Fall Issue <strong>2017</strong><br />

McElhanney’s team made some key innovative refinements<br />
to the reference concept to enhance the structural<br />
system’s efficiency while minimizing costs:<br />
Modified diamond-shaped towers, which reduced<br />
lateral seismic response and improved aerodynamic<br />
stability, while still being easier to construct compared<br />
to a traditional diamond-shape tower. The diamond<br />
portion of the tower was kept as small as possible<br />
based on traffic clearance constraints; the upper portion<br />
was designed as a single 53m vertical cantilever where<br />
all the cables connected. Construction of this vertical<br />
cantilever was simpler and faster than the inclined legs<br />
of a traditional diamond shape. “Working at the Atal<br />
Setu site in such a remote area of India brought me<br />
back in time,” says Chad Amiel, Field Reviewer and<br />
Construction Support. “With labour being cheap and<br />
equipment and technology being expensive, excavations<br />
were dug by hand, rocks were moved by men,<br />
and falsework was erected with ropes and pulleys<br />
instead of a crane. This was a vast contrast to construction<br />
sites in North America, where labor is expensive,<br />
and it informed some of our design decisions.”<br />
Novel intermediate pier props, installed under the<br />
side spans, helped stiffen the tower and superstructure<br />
and reduce demands from wind and live load<br />
by over 50%. These relatively inexpensive tension/<br />
compression piers only needed to be 10m tall because<br />
the side spans were already low to the ground,<br />
owing to the shallow natural terrain. Though the piers<br />
may seem relatively insignificant, they led to major<br />
material savings in the superstructure and tower.<br />
The savings became even more appreciable for this<br />
bridge as it is designed to Indian Road Congress<br />
(IRC) code, where the live load requirement is one<br />
of the heaviest in the world and includes provisions<br />
for military tanks crossing the bridge. Similar<br />
bridges with low-to-ground side spans generally<br />
provide standard bents to support the superstructure,<br />
including resisting lateral load effects, and<br />
require a significant structure with foundations.<br />
Unique hybrid superstructure, comprised of composite<br />
steel in the main span and cast-in-place concrete<br />
in the side spans. Taking advantage of the shallow<br />
natural terrain on either side of the river, the team<br />
decided to cast-in-place the side spans on falsework<br />
using the readily available local labour forces.<br />
In this way, the lightweight composite steel girder<br />
system with a 225mm deck in the longer main<br />
span was counterbalanced by the heavier concrete<br />
edge girder system supporting a 400mm deck in<br />
the shorter side span which eliminated uplift at the<br />
abutments during service conditions – very important<br />
since one of the most vulnerable components on<br />
a cable-stayed bridge is the uplift anchorage.<br />

Project management hurdles<br />
Aside from technical challenges, the team faced several<br />
important project management challenges throughout.<br />
The contractor set an extremely aggressive design<br />
schedule of only six months compared to the nine to<br />
12 months usually allocated for the design of similar<br />
cable-stayed bridges. The schedule for this bridge<br />
was compressed because, after award, as is common<br />
in India, the contractor solicited value engineering<br />
proposals from multiple consultants to reduce project<br />
costs. This consultant selection phase stretched longer<br />
than anticipated, however, consuming five months<br />
of the active design-build contract period, before<br />
McElhanney was appointed as the prime consultant.<br />
McElhanney successfully delivered the design plans<br />
within six months, recovering the initial time lost and<br />
allowing construction to commence as planned. “We<br />
collocated our production team to a modern home-stay<br />
office facility in Gurgaon, India, with fully furnished<br />
rooms, a common lounge, and dining on the lower two<br />
levels, and offices on the third,” says Morgan. “The<br />
team lived and worked together for up to six months<br />
to meet the challenging schedule while enjoying the<br />
opportunity to visit a foreign country in their down time.”<br />
This on-site project office also helped mitigate some of<br />
the coordination problems associated with a 12-hour<br />
time difference. This office facilitated better communication<br />
among team members, aided in understanding and<br />
interpreting the IRC code, and added further support<br />
for the client’s proof-checking process performed by<br />
IIT Delhi. “I found that the ‘face-time’ with the Indian<br />
construction staff meant more effective communication<br />
and teamwork, resulting in a good quality bridge,”<br />
says Morgan Trowland, Senior Site Manager. “With<br />
one of us on-site every day, they would treat us as<br />
part of their team, share every detail of the job, and<br />
in turn we would respond much more quickly and<br />
helpfully than we would if we were back in Vancouver.”<br />
Connecting communities<br />
“There were quite a few shopkeepers that I talked<br />
to each day while walking back from the site,”<br />
says Morgan. “They were usually quite languid,<br />
but they’d always light up when the time came to<br />
ask when the bridge would be finished. Clearly<br />
they’d been looking forward to it for decades.”<br />
Since completion, the bridge has reduced travel time<br />
from Basohli in Jammu & Kashmir to Dunera in Punjab<br />
by over four hours. This major time-savings has meant<br />
a boon for the previously isolated communities living<br />
across the river in the Himalayan town of Basohli, drastically<br />
improving locals’ quality of life. “It was satisfying<br />
to engineer this important piece of infrastructure that<br />
has made a major difference to the lives of the local<br />
people,” says David Jeakle, Engineer of Record.<br />
Chad Amiel, second from right, on-site with some of the construction workers.<br />

Reports already indicate an economic boost from<br />
increased tourism activity to the scenic region and the<br />
commercial mining of gypsum and limestone. Small<br />
businesses and restaurants are sprouting up on either<br />
side of the bridge to cater to the needs of tourists and<br />
industry commuters. The connection has empowered<br />
the local communities by renewing inter-state<br />
business, art, and cultural exchange – including revival<br />
of nuptial ties, as families have also started considering<br />
arranged marriage proposals from across the river. The<br />
connection is also encouraging local youth to consider<br />
educational opportunities in more prestigious colleges<br />
across the river. Security in the region has significantly<br />
improved now that troops have quick access<br />
to the insurgency-prone areas in the Kashmir Valley.<br />
The bridge was inaugurated by India’s Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar in<br />
December 2015.<br />
The bridge’s opening<br />
All project deliverables were completed on time and on<br />
budget, and the bridge opened to traffic in December<br />
2015, after just 4 years of construction, cutting the<br />
construction time by more than half when compared<br />
to similar cable-stayed bridges in the country.<br />
The much-anticipated opening of the bridge drew<br />
a huge crowd for the inauguration by the Defense<br />
Minister of India. This landmark bridge is being proudly<br />
described by the local community as an “engineering<br />
marvel.” The Atal Setu has been recognized thus far<br />
with an ACEC-BC Award of Excellence in the transportation<br />
category. “The Award of Excellence is of<br />
momentous value to us as it recognizes engineering<br />
excellence,” says Dave Jeakle. “This award recognizes<br />
McElhanney’s extraordinary efforts in designing<br />
and constructing the first design-build cablestayed<br />
bridge in Northern India in record time.”<br />
Locals enjoy the pedestrian passageway along the bridge after opening.<br />
McElhanney's staff were on-site for many months during the project.<br />

Employee spotlight<br />
Brook Robazza, MASc, EIT, Bridge Engineer, Vancouver<br />
find that when you’re a tourist, you mostly just go to the<br />
larger hubs or touristy areas of a country; you don’t get<br />
to sit down and work with the real people doing their<br />
real jobs in more conservative rural areas. This really<br />
lets you see how things are done in different places in<br />
the world. And you get a real appreciation for North<br />
American construction practice and safety standards!<br />
Brook has been with McElhanney since 2015. He has<br />
been involved with many of our international bridge<br />
projects, travelling most recently to India for the Arrah-<br />
Chhapra Bridge project (recently renamed as the Veer<br />
Kunwar Singh Setu) in Bihar, India. He took some time<br />
to let us know about his experience with McElhanney,<br />
and working abroad.<br />
How many international bridge projects<br />
have you worked on?<br />
Three, all in India: the Atal Setu in Jammu Kashmir, the<br />
the Sultanganj Bridge in Bihar (currently under construction),<br />
and the Veer Kunwar Singh Setu in Bihar. The last<br />
is my favourite bridge, it’s the world’s longest multispan<br />
extradosed bridge. I spent over four months straight<br />
on site at the beginning of construction and revisited<br />
another six times up until its completion.<br />
What do you enjoy most about travelling<br />
abroad for work?<br />
I love diving into cultures that are different than my<br />
own; the things you experience really put your life into<br />
perspective and let you see through a different lens. I<br />
What do you like about being a McElhanney<br />
employee?<br />
The best thing about being a McElhanney employee<br />
is the huge amount of opportunity and responsibility<br />
provided to you right away, if you want to take<br />
it and show you can handle it. Even though it can be<br />
challenging and can be a baptism by fire, I think there’s<br />
no better way to learn.<br />
Can you share a current project with us that<br />
you’re excited about?<br />
We are currently working on the design of the<br />
Sultanganj superstructure, while the substructure<br />
construction has already commenced. This is an<br />
especially exciting project that features a 270m cablestayed<br />
main span and a series of 163m extradosed<br />
approach spans, summing to a total bridge length<br />
of over 3km. Some of the approach spans lie on the<br />
portion of the road profile that includes both vertical and<br />
horizontal curves, which presents interesting challenges<br />
to the stay cable geometry and analysis.<br />

Client spotlight Ormat<br />
4 years of service<br />
McElhanney started working with Ormat in 2013,<br />
when we were connected with them through LICA,<br />
the company with which we worked for LiDAR equipment.<br />
LICA endorsed us for a LiDAR project in Sarulla<br />
on the island of Sumatra in Indonesia, as, at the time,<br />
we had an office in Indonesia. Since this first project<br />
together, Ormat has either hired us directly for projects<br />
or provided us with several critical recommendations.<br />
We won a geothermal exploration project with<br />
the St. Lucian Government after Ormat recommended<br />
the project to us, and we submitted a bid. Ormat<br />
sole-sourced us for the Eastern Rift project (as featured<br />
in this issue), as well as for the geothermal exploration<br />
project in Nevada and California that included 20<br />
sites. Recently, Ormat recommended us to the Nevada<br />
Bureau of Mines and Geology for a geothermal exploration<br />
project; we submitted our bid and won. The Bureau<br />
has since recommended us to the US Navy for a project<br />
at China Lake, California. We’re the preferred proponent<br />
for the project.<br />
