Complexities and Challenges:

This project presented various challenges, including complex design requirements and difficult working conditions. The shed featured a deep slope on one side and a standard slope on the other, requiring precision and innovative approaches during the fabrication and erection processes.

In addition to the structural complexity, the team faced challenges such as:

  • High-altitude work: The shed’s height of 20 meters required rigorous safety protocols and specialized machinery for safe construction.
  • Complex layout and design: Fitting sheets, corner pieces, lower sections, water trenches, down tack piping, top ridge, and insulation sheets was a meticulous task.
  • Heavy-duty material handling: The integration of 4 EOT cranes with 10 MT capacity each facilitated smooth material handling within the facility, allowing for operational efficiency post-construction.

The shed was designed to accommodate the specific needs of Ambica Steels’ production processes, ensuring that it could withstand the heavy handling capacity of materials and machinery.

Materials and Equipment Used:

In order to guarantee the longevity and structural integrity of the shed, we used the following high-quality materials:

  • MS Rolled and Built-up Material
  • GI Z Purlins
  • Top Insulation Sheets
  • GI Sheeting Fittings
  • Safety Railing and Wire Rope Fittings

The execution of this project required the use of various specialized pieces of equipment, including:

  • 80FT. Boom Lifter
  • Farana Cranes
  • 25MT Cranes

These tools were critical in ensuring the precision and safety of the work performed at such heights and with heavy materials.

Adherence to Industry Standards:

We adhered to all industry standards and safety protocols throughout the project, emphasizing worker safety and structural stability. Our team followed rigorous safety measures, especially considering the height work and the complexity of the structure. All elements of the shed were fabricated and erected in compliance with industry best practices, ensuring durability, reliability, and long-term performance.

Technical Innovations:

The innovative design of this project, with a one-sided deep slope and a standard slope on the other side, demanded creative and customized solutions. By utilizing advanced fabrication techniques, we were able to meet the client’s expectations for a complex yet functional design.

Additionally, the use of sustainable practices in the fabrication and erection of the shed reduced waste and ensured a more environmentally friendly construction process. The project exemplified advances in structural steel fabrication, particularly in terms of efficiency and sustainability.

Project Impact on Client Operations:

The completion of this project had a direct and positive impact on Ambica Steels’ operations. The new Annealing & Pickling Plant shed greatly increased the company’s production capacity and enhanced their ability to handle heavy materials efficiently. The shed’s modern infrastructure allows for smoother operations, quicker processing times, and improved operational efficiency, directly contributing to the company’s overall growth.
