Doka Canada is proud to partner with developers in Québec on Walt Rental Habitats, a 12-storey residential development that brings 255 high-end rental units and commercial space to the heart of Dorval. Designed with sustainability, efficiency, and livability in mind, the project is set to become a landmark along Avenue Dorval, just minutes from Montréal–Trudeau International Airport and the banks of the St. Lawrence River.

The U-shaped structure, designed by MDTO and Atelier d’architecture, features modern studio to three-bedroom units with exceptional natural light, high-end finishes, and sweeping city and waterfront views. Its amenity-rich layout includes a glass-enclosed gym, coworking lounges, rooftop terraces, and communal gathering spaces, embodying an approach that puts wellness and connectivity at the center of urban living.
To meet the development’s tight timeline (including a rigorous seven-day pour cycle) Doka provided a full suite of formwork solutions designed for speed, safety, and adaptability.
• Doka’s Framax Xlife plus system was deployed for shaft and core walls, where its retractable corners reduced labor time and supported consistent cycle speeds.
• The Dokadek 30 slab formwork system enabled safe, ground-assembled deck construction, improving overall efficiency and reducing fall risks.
• For varied column structures throughout the project, the team relied on Doka KS column formwork, which minimized reassembly requirements and helped crews maintain the demanding schedule.
Doka’s combination of equipment reliability, safety-forward engineering, and strong local support helped ensure that the project remained on track without compromising quality.
“Walt Rental Habitats is more than a residential project – it’s a reflection of how smart design and efficient execution can elevate a growing community,” said Gunnar Falke, CEO of Doka Canada. “Our involvement underscores Doka’s role as a collaborative partner in bringing this development to life. The use of systems like Framax Xlife plus and Dokadek 30 allowed the construction team to deliver speed and precision without sacrificing safety. We’re proud to support a project that will serve Dorval residents for decades to come.”
Construction is progressing steadily with final delivery expected this summer. As Dorval continues to grow and evolve, the Walt project stands as a forward-looking investment in density, livability, and quality built with the support of partners committed to safe, streamlined construction.
