Structural Design
Provincial Remand Centre
Owner: Public Works Government Services Canada/Corrections Canada
Value: $23,900,000
Architect: Gaboury Prefontaine Perry
Project Delivery: Design/Bid/Build
Date Completed: 1992

This high-rise, downtown Remand Centre is located adjacent to the Provincial Law Courts.

The superstructure was constructed using reinforced cast-in-place concrete construction. The exterior walls of the holding areas were cast-in-place concrete bearing walls while the interior walls were concrete block masonry concrete filled and reinforced to meet security requirements. The basement, garage and receiving areas incorporated secure sally-port areas for the transfer of residents. Exterior exercise yards were covered with a structural steel and security-level mesh roof grillage.

The building itself was founded on driven, precast concrete piles.
