Currently under construction, the Pier West condo development is located by Westminster Pier Park and consists of two residential towers, one of which will be the tallest building on Metro Vancouver’s waterfront. This development will have a total of 665 luxury units and feature an Owner’s Club in each building.
When a 60 lb kettlebell dropped from knee height was enough to rattle the windows of the retail tenant below, this popular fitness centre solved the problem with a floating floor.
Anvil Centre is a four-story civic facility with conference facilities, multi-purpose rooms and studios and a flexible 350 non-proscenium theatre. The theatre can be used in a number of configurations with retractable seating without overloading the floor mounts. The rooftop floating slab mitigates any noise from nearby aircraft, stopping airborne sound transmission.
Eight floating floors were required for the SFU School of Contemporary Arts project. This solution ensured airborne noise and vibration from a generator on an upper floor did not negatively impact the theatres or office spaces within the complex.
