The final structural and fabrication drawings submission and entire project coordination with multiple disciplines during the design phase have been provided using BIM.
Important Information:
The production block is a steel-framed building supporting heavy industrial equipment and tanks. This block consists of braced frames as a lateral system located to avoid any obstruction to plant internal movements. A Pile foundation system was provided for the production block.
Storage area block was designed and constructed under the existing warehouse PEB. Column were strategically located to avoid internal movement of forklift. The storage area is completely independent of the PEB structure to avoid retrofit of the same.
