The model object perfectly matches the blueprint! The design team is flexible in responding to major changes!
In this project, we are engineering a heating furnace with an air preheater, platform, and auxiliary support structures. There were two major challenges in this project. The first was the need to fit equipment into the confined space of the existing plant, while also facing constraints in the work area due to project specifications and equipment requirements. Through three-dimensional modeling with "Tekla Structures," we were able to accurately understand all requirements early in the project, evaluate the pros and cons of possible options, and confirm accessibility. The next challenge arose from layout changes to the equipment that occurred later in the project, necessitating extensive additional design work that affected both structural components and auxiliary support structures. Since the model objects perfectly matched the design drawings, the design team was able to respond flexibly to significant changes, mitigate impacts on the project schedule, and proactively avoid serious issues that could arise in design and fabrication. *For more details, please feel free to contact us. ⇩ The catalog can be downloaded from the special site below ⇩*
