Commercial Projects
BCB Engineering can provide structural design for almost any commercial need, including office buildings, box stores, restaurants and banks

This building addition consisted of a pre-engineered frame on a concrete grade beam & screw pile foundation. The interior mezzanine, designed by BCB, is a steel frame structure which houses office & meeting space and a lunch area above the main work floor. The conditions of this job included ensuring proper techniques were used when connecting this building to the already existing buildings on multiple sides and required cost-effective design and a keen attention to detail. In addition to the foundation design, BCB Engineering was responsible for building and energy code review, the design of new openings in the existing buildings, and coordinating between the disciplines to ensure the final product was satisfactory to the client. This project was completed in less than a year and was finished in Spring of 2018.
The task of converting a water tower into a restaurant is no small feat. The original water tower was analysed with finite element modelling software to design the new window openings in the shell, and to analyse the additional weight of the crown and new snow drift load on the roof. A new double helix stairwell was designed and constructed around the centre shaft where an elevator is now installed. Three floors were installed inside the original tank and all of this was completed more than 100’ above grade.
The new showroom and wholesale warehouse located in north Lethbridge is constructed with a pre- engineered steel building. The foundation is a concrete strip footing and wall. Inside the building is a second floor and mezzanine that overlooks the large warehouse space.
Browns Socialhouse restaurant is a single storey conventional steel building with lots of glazing around the exterior walls. The main focal point of the building is the covered glass trellis patio that allows the patio to be used year-round.
A new grocery store was designed and constructed to fill an important need in Standoff, AB. The store is constructed from insulated concrete formed walls around the perimeter and a conventional steel roof. A steel mezzanine inside provides an overlooking inviting space. The front entrance includes heavy timber construction and open web wood trusses that provide a warm welcome.
