Fuel and chemicals storage depot

Building structures of a storage depot and terminal for fuels, chemicals and liquefied gas. In the amending building permit design and the detailed design we designed pump houses as steel canopies on reinforced concrete trays and retaining walls, rail loading gantries with service platforms, a road tanker loading bay, and process pipe racks carrying pipelines and cable routes over roads and railway tracks. In the next stage we designed the extension of the depot: new pipe racks, an LPG rail loading gantry about 124 m long and an extension of the rail gantry duct.

Structural design — amending building permit design and detailed design

All structures in a single model

Pump houses, rail loading gantries, the tanker loading bay, process pipe racks and the extension in a single coordinate system. Elements with complex geometry are shown as simplified solids — the models of the individual structures are more detailed. Switch layers: concrete and steel.
