116 Category 3: Industrial Buildings and Plants 3 Owner NEM Industrial & Utility Boilers General Contractor Petronas Engineering Office Vicoma Engineering Construction Period 2016 - 2017 Vicoma Engineering has designed a supporting structure of ductwork and platforms for the Rapid-project in Malaysia. In co-operation with our client NEM Industrial & Utility Boilers, Vicoma has made the basic and detailed engineering of supporting steel structure, platforms, ductwork and inlet towers. The steel structure supports the cold-air ductwork coming from (cold air) inlet towers and fans to the burners of the boiler. The cold-air duct, including by-pass, consists of carbon steel plate work supported to the steel structure with fixed and sliding supports. Several platforms allow for access to the maintenance areas and measurement points of the ductwork. At the top of the structure (elevation approx. 16 metres) a roof has been added above the burner equipment. The total plan dimensions of the steel structure are 32 m x 18 m. The ductwork has been modelled in SCIA Engineer to introduce the load of the ductwork on the steel structure; dead loads, wind loadings, seismic loadings and temperature (thermal expansion) loads. The design of the steel structure also comprised of the detail engineering of all connection details that also have been calculated in SCIA Engineer, using the Eurocode steel checks, using local beam sizes (JIS-standard) and steel qualities.
