Gold Seal unveils new Construction

old Seal and the Canadian Construction Association
(CCA) are raising the bar for provincial Construction
Safety Officers with a new professional designation.
Introduced in spring 2007, Gold Seal Construction Safety
Coordinator (CSC) is Gold Seal’s fifth certification program
for individuals, which already includes Project Managers,
Superintendents, Estimators and Owners’ Project Managers.
Gold Seal was developed by CCA in the early 1990s to serve
individuals in the construction industry with national
certification programs. With its venture into safety, Gold Seal is
elevating their profile with provincial safety associations.
According to Sean Scott, Director of the Construction Safety
Association of Manitoba (CSAM), discussion about the Gold Seal
CSC designation first originated when provincial safety associations
requested that CCA consider including mandatory safety
components in all of their Gold Seal programs. Consequently, CCA
decided to develop a separate professional designation for safety.
“There hasn’t been a national safety designation and there have
been some problems coordinating between the different provincial More specifically, Gold Seal Certified Construction Safety

that is literally the face of the University sandstone instead of limestone, the

The inside of Wesley Hall was faring no
better. After nearly a century of yeomen’s
service as the main lecture theatre and
centre of social activity for the university,
Wesley’s Convocation Hall had been
reduced to a shell of its former stateliness,
with boarded up windows, black walls, and
gaping holes in its original plaster ceiling.
Restoring Renovations
But with timely intervention, the face
of the University of Winnipeg’s Wesley
Hall is being saved. For the last few years,
Wesley Hall and its Convocation Hall have
been under renovation. The current phase
of the project involves the installation
of the mechanical apparatus—including
ductwork, heating, cooling and humidity
control—and all new electrical.
Under renovation, Wesley Hall was
reduced to a shell, first from the outside
in, as George Cibinel of Corbett Cibinel
Architects explains: “We shaved the
exterior down to a flat surface, then we
sprayed a coat of rubber on it, sprayed a
layer of insulation on top of that, followed
by new stone and windows. That was step
one; step two is the mechanical/electrical
interiors,” which meant reducing the
inside of the building to a shell, and
starting to build inward again.

the amount of outside air that the system
will bring in, which makes the system as
efficient as possible. Of course, if you can
reduce the amount of outside air that you
need to bring in, you’re also reducing the
amount of outside air that you need to heat,

That, of course, contributes to the
environmental sustainability of this newly
“green” building which, Cibinel emphasizes,
will ultimately “match or exceed the
standards of a new building.”
“I think we’re going to have a model building

echoes Bill Balan of the University of

“This presented significant process and mechanical/electrical
design challenges, but saved about $34 million compared to the
cost of early construction of a stand-alone facility,” he explains.
The water is then transported to three existing pumping
stations and covered reservoirs within the city before it
reaches consumers’ taps.
With this system, the Winnipeg Water Treatment Plant will
be capable of treating an average of 254 million litres of
water per day.
Competing with other significant construction projects in
Manitoba, the water treatment plant project has run into some
challenges. While rising material costs have increased the price
tag, Pearson says that the busy construction climate has also
made it difficult to find qualified tradespeople to do the work.
Together with general contractors such as Bird Construction,
Lafarge Canada, Nelson River Construction, Gateway
Construction & Engineering, PCL Constructors and many more
trade contractors, including Comstock Canada, ABCO Supply &
Service and Derksen Plumbing & Heating, workers are coming
together to create clean drinking water.
“There are always challenges with large projects and aggressive
schedules,” admits Pearson. “Having said that, I believe that
everyone associated with the project is doing their utmost to
deliver a successful project, on time and within budget.”
Construction is estimated to be completed at the end of 2008.
Now that’s something to raise your glass to.
