Envelope condition assessments were completed at the property known as Canada Life Campus which includes 180 Queen Street W., 180 Simcoe Street, 190 Simcoe Street, and 330 University Avenue. The building components reviewed at each property included Building Envelope, Roofing and Site Pavements/Parking.
Engineering Link was retained to design and administer full replacement of the exterior sealant (caulking) at 190 Simcoe Street. The design included performance improvements to address air leakage and new two-stage sealant joints between precast panels to improve long-term resistance to water penetration. A premium silicone sealant was selected to provide an expected sealant service life of more than 35 years.
