Construction Period 05/2012 - 06/2013
A new transformer station (72 x 28 m) including different medium and high
voltage installations and sufficient capacity has been built for Zeeland
Refinery.
The building consists of:
• Cable cellar (ground level).
• Transformer position and fuel storage, including the necessary
foundations.
• Switchroom above the cable cellar.
The structural model was created using Allplan Engineering and
included in-situ concrete foundations, cellar floor and concrete walls.
The superstructure consisted of a prefabricated concrete column/beam
structure with wide slab floors and a hollow core slab roof.
All constructive layout drawings of the building were made in Allplan.
Furthermore all in-situ floors, walls and foundations were generated
into 2D line drawings. After that all in-situ components were reinforced
in the 3D model and generated into 2D drawings, which were released
for production. The biggest advantage of reinforcing the concrete in the
3D model was immediate insight into difficult cable entry points.
