Based in Ontario, DTS Technical Inc. is one of North America's premier design and implementation firmsx000D
serving the telecommunications industry. DTS is a privately-owned company which offers professionalx000D
headend equipment installation, cabling, AC and DC powering, and live cutover services. DTS providesx000D
network facilities engineering and implementation services including analysis, design andx000D
construction/installation of cable tray, framing, utility pool and other support structures. Currently company isx000D
facing challenges in analysis and designing support structural systems made of commercially availablex000D
structural elements because of lack of knowledge on strength properties and their performance under servicex000D
conditions. DTS is currently seeking to address this challenge by developing expertise in analyzing, designingx000D
and installing robust support structures for utility systems by demonstrating performance through research &x000D
development. The objective of this project is to design robust and more efficient new or repaired supportx000D
structures (in terms of better structural performance, service life and economy) for utility system throughx000D
developing improved analysis tools and design specifications by incorporating mechanical properties (such asx000D
strength and deformation characteristics) of commercially available component parts (new, deteriorated andx000D
repaired states) through experimental and theoretical/code based investigations. The completion of this projectx000D
will give DTS a competitive advantage (leading to boosting revenue and job creation in the long-term) throughx000D
developing expertize in the analysis and design of more efficient support structures for utility systems. Thisx000D
work will also enable DTS to build confidence and promote understanding for its clients, engineers, and localx000D
authorities in Canada, when providing construction/installation services. By supporting this research, Canadax000D
can play a significant role in assisting a Canadian company (DTS) to develop expertise, build confidence andx000D
promote understanding for its clients in providing construction/installation of utility services as well asx000D
contributing to the training of highly qualified personnel (HQP).
