The company SKÁLA & VÍT designed a set of steel structures on which a complex device for transporting bulk feed to the glass furnace is laid out and anchored, consisting of belt conveyors, vertical bucket conveyors, storage tanks and a preheating partition heat exchanger from the flue gas to the incoming raw material. The main tower, which rises above the roof of the hall, was built into the free space inside the hall next to the furnace. The transport of flue gas and raw materials is carried out by transport bridges from the transport exterior tower. The total weight of the processed steel structures is 285t. The steel structures were designed in close cooperation with the designers of the technological part – i.e. pipelines, conveyors, storage tanks. For this, 3D models were used as external references. We developed structural calculation model, Tekla model and project drawings for the design coordination, Beside the shop and site-set up drawings we developed detail documentation for pre-assembly and lift of units weighing up to 46t. The pre-assembly plans included pre-assembled units, as well as rope lengths and load capacities, lifting devices, i.e. levers and stiffening frames. 3D models in IFC format shared via the Trimble Connect platform played an important role in this job. This is how the entire project was presented to the customer. During the pre-assembly and assembly phase, 3D models shared via Trimble Connect were used to introduce the assembly procedure and main lifts, along with planning the site´s space occupation. We moved the partial IFC models of pre-assembled units in workspace in x- direction to show the logical sequence of assembly- from base to top.
