AMBER TRAILS COMMUNITY SCHOOL

The LEED Platinum certified Amber Trails Community School, designed by Prairie Architects Inc. for the Seven Oaks School Division, opened in 2015. Just a few short years later, an eight-classroom addition was constructed to accommodate the growing population in the area. The addition received LEED Gold certification in 2023.

The addition is modelled after the original school design where groupings of classrooms are clustered around shared, open multi-purpose areas. The eight-classroom addition increased the capacity of the school from 800 to 1,000 students and complements the existing school’s attributes, incorporating key principles of sustainability such as enhanced building commissioning and exceptional energy performance.

Some noteworthy elements include: hydronic radiant floors controlled from the building automation system (BAS), using hot water supplied from the existing school’s central ground source heat pump (GSHP); constant volume air distribution via active chilled beams in the classrooms; and both hot and chilled water supplied from the existing GSHP system with a 20-ton upgrade to the heat pump module to provide the incremental plant capacity required for the addition.

GREEN GABLES VISITOR CENTRE

The LEED Gold certified Visitor Centre situated on 16 acres of rural land in Cavendish, PEI, is the setting for Lucy Maud Montgomery’s novel ‘Anne of Green Gables’. Parks Canada wanted to improve the tourist experience with a structure that would be respectful of the historic house and would reinterpret the wood building tradition of PEI through the use of exposed engineered mass timber, a more sustainable choice than traditional post and beam.

MITCHELL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL ADDITION

In order to accommodate the growing communities of Mitchell, Manitoba and surrounding area, the Hanover School Division required significant expansion of the Mitchell Elementary School. The 11,142 square-foot addition includes five new classrooms; a learning commons, which opens into a large multi-purpose room; an entrance vestibule; and washrooms and service space. Additionally, outside of the LEED project boundary, a subsequent renovation to the existing school was undertaken in order to expand and renovate the kindergarten classrooms; renovate the administration and staff areas; and provide much-needed consolidation of the educational support and resource areas.

The project team worked in close collaboration with the Hanover School Division to prioritize the school’s need and determine the scope of work that would best serve the school and meet the project’s sustainability goals within the project budget.

REVOLUTIONIZING ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE: MODERN NIAGARA’S JOURNEY TO DECARBONIZE CANADA’S ICE ARENAS

Modern Niagara’s transformation of the AMPED Sports Lab and Ice Complex into North America’s first arena to achieve a Zero Carbon Building Performance Standard certification proves decarbonization is achievable – even in the most challenging spaces.

Canada’s aggressive carbon reduction objectives need to be met by 2030 and 2050. As building emissions represent a significant percentage of the country’s total emissions, Modern Niagara – Canada’s leading national mechanical and electrical, building services, and integrated building technology contractor –has responded to the urgent call for a decarbonized built environment.

Ice rinks symbolize Canada’s national identity. Whether the place for hockey, exhibiting our collective values of teamwork, dedication, and resilience, or the shared space for belonging, connection, and unity, the arena represents the heart of Canadian communities. They are also among the highest energy-consuming facilities in a municipality. As such, Modern Niagara developed the position that if an arena can be decarbonized, any building in any community can be decarbonized, making arenas the ideal starting point for municipalities looking to begin their net zero journeys.

Through the AMPED project, Modern Niagara has successfully demonstrated that a community ice rink can be a new source of national pride – comprised of environmental responsibility, and a catalyst for societal transformation to help meet reduction targets.

At the core of Modern Niagara’s decarbonization efforts lies a commitment to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, including investing in the development of innovative technologies tailored to facilities with complex needs. For AMPED, this included the real-time development of the Liquid Desiccant Dehumidifier (LDD) –a technology that Modern Niagara continues to advance for enhanced efficiency and performance.

As an emerging leader in sustainability solutions, Modern Niagara also collaborates with cutting-edge clean tech partners such as OX2, Airwise, Blue Frontier, Distech Controls, and Guest Automation to explore new solutions for building equipment, ensuring not only decarbonization but also energy efficiency.

Leveraging their expertise, partnerships, and relationships with industry leaders and the AMPED Sports Lab and Ice Complex owners, Modern Niagara assembled a team of subject matter experts to tackle the unique challenges posed by decarbonizing ice arenas – setting a precedent and roadmap for municipalities across Canada to follow.

This decarbonization project exemplifies how visionary leadership and collective action can drive change. Modern Niagara’s cutting-edge initiative to reduce carbon emissions in Canada’s ice arenas proves that net zero is not just a goal, but an achievable reality. And, the lessons learned from decarbonizing arenas can be applied toward other buildings, accelerating Canada’s transition toward a more sustainable future.

Modern Niagara welcomes all stakeholders to join this decarbonization journey. From municipal decision-makers to facility owners, a sustainable future is achievable when we meet together at the rink.

TRADES TRAINING CENTRE, NORTHERN LIGHTS COLLEGE, DAWSON CREEK

The Trades Training Centre in Dawson Creek, Canada provides workshops for the instruction of carpentry, welding, plumbing, millwright, and wind turbine technology, as well as student commons, classrooms, and offices. Tailored to the northern climate, the project inverts trades building typology to suit collaborative, multi-disciplinary trades education. Mass timber construction is used for efficiency and is exposed within the building to create practical spaces humanized by wood materials, colour and natural light. The project recently achieved LEED ‘Gold’ certification.

Dawson Creek is a remote resource town of 13,000 residents in northeast BC, dependent upon the oil and gas industry. It is very cold, with long nights and temperatures that regularly dip to -40˚C during the winter.

The project is an addition to Northern Lights College. The new building provides a clear identity for the campus, by fronting the haphazard former military base with a single long façade and addressing the town’s main road with a large coloured clerestorey along its full length - animated by LED lights that harken to the aurora borealis. Sheltered courtyards around the new building counter the sprawling pattern of a town that lacks pedestrian amenity.

Demand for heat and shelter is extreme in this northern climate. The design responds by providing a renewable campus energy system centered around a large-scale biomass boiler fueled by waste wood from the region’s forest industry. The south-facing elevation of the building was designed as a solar wall to utilise the strong winter sunlight to pre-heat intake air for the building’s mechanical ventilation system. Where conventional trade training facilities use large outdoor ‘boneyards’ for storage and training activities, this space was enclosed at Northern Lights, and the exhaust air from other fully conditioned spaces used to temper the space during cold periods.

This project provides a model for trades college design in a cold climate, working from first principles and using mass timber to create a sustainable, practical, people-oriented environment – and handling the technical requirements of extensive workshop equipment.

Mass timber construction created opportunities for integrating architecture and systems:

• Constructability was enhanced by prefabrication of roof panels and CLT wall panels

• Wood structure reduces the size of the piling foundations required for frost heave

• Exposed mass timber provides a ready surface for fastening equipment and building systems, which must remain exposed to allow flexibility in the workshops

• Wood columns provide lateral support for the clerestorey and mitigate glare

• The wood interior, integrated with acoustic surface treatments, provides exceptional acoustic performance to temper the noise of workshop tools

Reflective of trades work, the design is practical and efficient in its orthogonal form: a carefully calibrated box that responds to functional needs and the human desire for warmth, natural light, and social interaction.

FORTWHYTE ALIVE BUFFALO CROSSING VISITORS CENTRE

Located in Winnipeg’s burgeoning southwest, north of a primary motorway into the city, Buffalo Crossing is situated on Muir Lake’s south shore, the largest of five lakes formed in reclaimed clay and gravel pits abandoned by the Canada Cement Company.

The 18,000 sf two-story mass timber Visitor Centre consists of a gift shop, café, lobby, gender neutral washrooms, learning, pre-function and indigenous spaces, prep kitchen, and event space.

The marquee gateway to FortWhyte Alive’s 660 acre nature campus, offering environmental education and recreation programs, Buffalo Crossing will be a living exhibit of climate resilience, reconciliation, and stewardship, facilitating expanded programming and revenue.

Amidst wispy aspens, perched between and over granite gabion walls concealing the ‘natural garden’ beyond, Buffalo Crossing frames views towards visitors’ experience. Transparent, welcoming, Buffalo Crossing is designed to draw people in connecting them with nature.

Triangular in form with a minimal north facade with limited solar exposure, the northwest façade opens up to picturesque views, while the south façade addresses the motorway providing a strong physical presence. The upper volume shading the lower volume, stepping up at the event space. Rounded corners soften its presence within the aspen forest. Two ends of the upper volume are carved out to form balconies.

Interior features supporting indigenous culture were carefully curated including language, interpretive elements, and the Star Blanket pattern celebrating indigenous history and knowledge. The bison (buffalo) make an appearance in the Donor Wall.

Special consideration was given to south central Canada’s extreme climate with conditions ranging from -40° C and 0% relative humidity to +40° C and 100% relative humidity and future projected climate data to inform the design of Buffalo Crossing achieving CaGBC’s Zero Carbon Building Design Standard and targeting Passive House Certification - the first such projects in Manitoba to achieve these standards.

Large bird-friendly insulating glass units passively harvest solar heat during the heating season, while the overhang and operable screens, theatrically opening and closing in response to the sun, passively shade the interiors during the cooling season. Paired with a highperformance building enclosure, the heating energy demand is lowered by ~90%.

The building’s HVAC system consists of a ground source heat pump, energy recovery ventilator, and in-floor heating/cooling.

Buffalo Crossing demonstrates FortWhyte Alive’s commitment to climate action through the built environment, promoting an understanding of the natural world, inspiring actions towards sustainable living and a better future for all.
