Industrial Structures Design

Steel and Concrete Structures for Demanding Industries

Structural design and detailing of steel and reinforced concrete structures for mining and industrial facilities, focused on safety, constructability, and lifecycle performance.

What is Industrial Structures Design?

Engineering of steel and concrete structures that support industrial processes, including foundations, frames, equipment supports, and auxiliary buildings, using codes and site-specific loads.

Applications

Mining Facilities

Process plants, crushers, conveyors, and maintenance platforms designed for heavy loads and harsh environments.

Industrial Plants

Structures for cement, power, chemical, and manufacturing plants with vibration and thermal considerations.

Warehouses and Logistics

Long-span steel frames, racks, and handling zones optimized for clearances and throughput.

Equipment Supports and Platforms

Skids, pipe racks, and access platforms with safe egress and maintenance access.

Foundations and Heavy Bases

Concrete foundations for rotating equipment and heavy machinery with settlement control.

Methodology

1

Requirements and Loads

Collection of process data, equipment loads, geotechnical inputs, and operational constraints.

2

Structural Analysis

Modeling and verification for strength, stability, deflection, and dynamic response.

3

Detailed Design

Member sizing, reinforcement design, connection detailing, and constructability checks.

4

Drawings and Specifications

IFC-ready plans, details, and material specifications aligned with standards.

5

Construction Support

Shop drawing reviews, RFIs, and field assistance to ensure design intent.

Benefits

🛡️

Safety and Compliance

Designs aligned with international codes and site safety requirements.

💰

Cost-Efficient Structures

Optimized steel tonnage and concrete volumes without compromising performance.

🏗️

Buildable Solutions

Detailing that reduces rework and accelerates fabrication and erection.

⚙️

Operational Resilience

Structures that withstand fatigue, vibration, and aggressive environments.

♻️

Lifecycle Value

Maintainable designs that lower OPEX over the facility’s life.

Tools and Standards

We design using proven software and international standards:

  • Finite element modeling and analysis tools
  • AISC, ACI, ASCE, and local seismic codes
  • Connection design and detailing standards
  • Design QA/QC and peer review workflows
  • BIM-ready deliverables for coordination

Experience and Expertise

Our structural engineering background spans industrial facilities, heavy foundations, and steel/concrete systems, with a focus on mining and process industries.
