Description

PURPOSE OF the REQUEST for Participation in the Competition
The purpose of this Request for Participation in the Competition is to gather proposals for research and development projects from research entities conducting research activities in Canada. This Request for Participation in the Competition follows an interest survey conducted with research entities in April 2019.

To improve the sustainability of its structures, the Owner wants to learn from the past to better prepare for the future. JCCBI wishes to seize the opportunity of the deconstruction of the Original Champlain Bridge to carry out a research and development program focused on certain components of the existing bridge.

The deconstruction of a major bridge that has experienced particular pathologies is an opportunity in particular to conduct experimental studies on full-scale components that have been exposed to real field conditions and typical operating conditions in a northern climate. A number of deterioration and durability issues addressed with various innovative reinforcement and rehabilitation techniques may also be studied.

The proposed projects will be evaluated based on an evaluation grid with criteria. The research program will be implemented and funded by the Owner over four (4) years, from 2019-2020 to 2022-2023.

The deconstruction of the Original Champlain Bridge is a unique research and development opportunity that will help not only the Owner but also its entire ecosystem and the scientific community.
