Pacific Rim National Park Bog Trail Boardwalk – Test Piles

Pacific Rim National Park Shorepine Bog Trail Boardwalk is on a sensitive 200-500 year old bog that has unique stunted vegetation with many small trees that are hundreds of years old. Boardwalk needs a replacement solution with minimum impact to the fragile vegetation and Postech Piles met the standards required by Parks Canada, Geotech and environmental impact review of the test piles. Load tests were performed to measure load capacity and ensure minimal ground disturbance.
