Arrow worked directly with the local owner of these brand new Kal Tire locations to engineer straightforward builds. The structural team was responsible for the complete structural design, and acted as the prime consultant for both projects. This included the steel framing, load bearing concrete masonry block wall, and the cast-in-place concrete foundation.

On the interior of the building, Arrow paid special attention to the industrial needs of both locations, designing with the heavy-duty usage in mind. In addition to proposing an alternative ventilation system that could improve energy efficiency and simplify maintenance, Arrow designed the heating, ventilation, cooling, and air compression units to accommodate the high demand of a shop.

Further, Arrow suggested the cost-saving measure of installing LED lighting wherever possible which would improve lighting lifespan and save Kal Tire money. With each location, the work was completed with future expansions in mind.

The Fort Saskatchewan location was the first of the Kal Tire projects. Arrow worked on. Throughout the process, the Arrow team gained significant knowledge that allowed for the future building processes to be streamlined and improved.

“By staying focused on clear and frequent communication with the client, our team was able to develop a strong understanding of their needs. It made all the following projects we did with them run that much smoother.”
– Paul Pertich, Mechanical Design Engineer
