Manitoba Hydro – Keeyask Camp

Associated Engineering provided third-party inspection services for the camp modules, during the factory fabrication process. The camp was designed and built using modular construction methods, with the module units being built in fabrication facilities in Penticton, BC, Agassiz, BC and Edmonton, AB.

More than 350 modules were inspected at the fabrication locations throughout the 2½ year fabrication period. Inspections were done to ensure compliance with the contract documents and for overall fabrication quality. Inspections were conducted for a minimum of 2 days per week, at each location, over the duration of the fabrication. Due to the remote location of the camp, northern Manitoba, repair costs were high, so defects identified during fabrication could quickly and easily be corrected, in a cost-effective manner, prior to the units being shipped to site.
