Project Overview

A complex heavy steel structure for a thermal power plant including boiler support frames, turbine halls, coal handling systems, and auxiliary buildings. Engineered for extreme loads and seismic conditions.

The Challenge

The power plant required a massive boiler support structure capable of carrying 2,000+ tons of equipment at 80m height, along with turbine hall, coal handling system, and various auxiliary structures. All components needed to withstand extreme thermal cycling and vibration loads.

Our Solution

We engineered a heavy braced frame system using high-strength Q420 steel for the boiler structure, with specialized expansion joints to accommodate thermal movement. The turbine hall features a 36m span rigid frame with vibration-isolated turbine pedestals. All connections were designed for fatigue resistance under cyclic loading.

Project Highlights
