Large commercial warehouse foundation construction project is officially underway

Moore and Sons has started a foundation construction and thickened concrete slab building project to accommodate a new steel building and warehouse expansion structure for EWOS Canada.

Building a Foundation You Can Trust!


This 100’x78’ concrete structure project is scheduled to be completed in mid-November, 2024.

The foundation has 12 pilasters which are support structures that hold the steel building in place. They have rebar cages with 20 mm and 25 mm rebar. A standard house foundation usually requires only 15 mm. The bolts that hold down the structure have to be precise within millimeters. The engineered slab has a 12"x12" rebar grid in a 6" thick 30 megapascal (MPA) concrete. A typical driveway has a 4" slab and may have an 18"x18" grid of 10 mm bar or none at all!

When completed, we will have poured approximately 60 cubic meters of concrete for the foundation and additional 120 cubic meters of concrete for the slab. That is about 18 driveways worth of concrete going into this project!
