Corcon Construction was awarded a multi-million dollar structural concrete restoration project in Toronto’s Stockyards district, delivering complex rehabilitation within a fully operational, active slaughterhouse facility. This high-risk environment required exceptional planning, strict safety controls, and advanced expertise in structural shoring, suspended slab restoration, and confined space concrete repair.

Corcon led the stabilization and rehabilitation of a live-load suspended concrete slab system, working in close coordination with structural engineers to design and install engineered shoring systems that safely supported critical load-bearing elements—all while maintaining continuous plant operations with zero disruption.

Executing work within an active slaughterhouse presented unique challenges, including strict sanitation requirements, sensitive equipment, confined work zones, and ongoing production. Corcon implemented comprehensive containment and protection systems, including full equipment isolation, advanced dust control, and industrial-grade air filtration and purification systems, ensuring a controlled, compliant, and safe working environment at all times.

Once structural stabilization was achieved, Corcon completed extensive soffit (underside) concrete restoration, utilizing specialized shotcrete applications to rebuild and reinforce deteriorated concrete. This approach allowed for precise structural rehabilitation under demanding conditions while delivering long-term durability and performance.

All work was carried out under strict confined space protocols, with continuous coordination between engineers, trades, and facility operations to maintain safety, efficiency, and quality control throughout every phase of the project.

This project demonstrates Corcon’s ability to successfully execute complex high-risk concrete restoration, structural rehabilitation, and shoring systems in fully operational industrial environments—delivering safe, durable, and high-performance results without interrupting critical operations.
