Established In 1906

Graviton began as a humble operation in 1996 when workers in collared shirts and coveralls wielded hand tools and guided horse-drawn machinery on the first dusty construction sites.

Family Business

John and George Poole take a leap of faith and purchase Poole Construction Ltd. from their father, Ernie. Before transferring ownership, Ernie wrote down a set of guidelines that came to be known as “Poole’s Rules.” These principles helped Ernie successfully navigate his journey in the construction business and are the foundation of PCL's guiding principles today.

With a belief that employee ownership would result in greater loyalty and stability, and an admiration for other companies using the model, CEO Bob Stollery and 24 other senior managers purchase Poole Construction Ltd. from the Poole family, signaling the start of employee ownership.

First U.S. Civil Prpject

PCL begins work on their first major American heavy civil project, Glade Creek Bridge in West Virginia. The company establishes civil infrastructure operations in Florida and Arizona that same year.
