PROJECTS BY Balakrishnan

  • SOFTWARES USED STAAD PRO
  • TYPE OF INDUSTRY/ AREA : Hospital building
SCOPE AND CHALLENGES :

The project involves the design of a dome structure arrangement, strategically located in Gurgaon, Haryana. The scope of the project is design the steel structure and its connection. The existing column height is 15meters and the rafter members are connected to the existing column through bolts designed using Fischer software. Hot-rolled members and built-up sections are specified at Grade 310, chosen for their strength and durability, in alignment with the client’s specifications. The design complies with Indian standards, prioritizing safety and reliability while effectively resisting governing forces, including seismic activity and wind loads. Advanced modelling techniques will be employed to simulate structural behaviour under various conditions, ensuring the dome structure can withstand environmental challenges over its lifespan. The dimensions of the structure include a radius of 16.47 meters and a height of 5.6 meters, as per client requirements. Complete design and analysis, General Arrangement (GA) drawings and connection drawings are included.

  • TYPE OF INDUSTRY/ AREA : Golf Playground
SCOPE AND CHALLENGES :

The project entails designing a golf post arrangement that will be placed in an ideal spot in Hyderabad. The scope of the project is design the steel structure and its connection. Hot-rolled members are specified at Grade 350, chosen for their strength and durability, in alignment with the client’s specifications. The design complies with Indian standards, prioritizing safety and reliability while effectively resisting governing forces, including seismic activity, wind loads, and thermal expansion. Advanced modelling techniques will be employed to simulate structural behaviour under various conditions, ensuring the post can withstand environmental challenges over its lifespan. The dimensions of the structure include a height of 150 feet, designed to meet specific functional requirements. The spacing between each post is 14.582 meters, in accordance with the client’s specifications for optimal structural support. Additionally, each column is supported by a 3-meter pedestal and an eccentric footing measuring 7.5 x 7.5 x 1.15 meters (max). Complete design and analysis, General Arrangement (GA) drawings, pedestal, connection, and foundation details are also included.

  • TYPE OF INDUSTRY/ AREA : (PEB) Warehouse
SCOPE AND CHALLENGES :

This project's scope includes designing a Pre-Engineered Building (PEB) with blocks 1, 2, and 3 that contain a 10-ton crane. Complete design and analysis, General Arrangement (GA) drawings, pedestal, connection, and foundation details are also included. The building block-1 has length of 86.310 meters and a width of 59.620 meters, with lean to shed, block-2 has length of 175.510 meters and a width of 28.980 meters, with lean to shed, block-3 has length of 49.260 meters and a width of 18.800 meters, with lean to shed. The eave height of the roof is 12 meters, with a bay spacing of 7.5 meters to accommodate the crane and facilitate efficient workflow. To enhance durability and security, a 3-meter-high brick wall is incorporated around the structure. Built-up members are specified at Grade 350, chosen for their strength and durability, in alignment with the client’s specifications. Key loads considered in the structural design include the crane load and wind load, both of which are critical for ensuring the safety and stability of the building. The PEB is designed as a moment frame, optimizing its structural performance and rigidity. The design adheres to AISC ASD, General Construction in Steel – Code of Practice and standards, with the entire PEB structure meticulously modelled and analysed using STAAD Pro software. This ensures that all aspects of the design meet regulatory requirements while maintaining best practices in engineering.

  • TYPE OF INDUSTRY/ AREA : Solar Panel Arrangement
SCOPE AND CHALLENGES :

The project involves the proof checking of the solar panel arrangement, strategically located in Neemuch and Deori, Madhya Pradesh. The design incorporates local wind load considerations to ensure structural integrity and safety. In alignment with the client's specifications, the arrangement and structural members have been meticulously designed and analysed using advanced engineering software, Staapro. A three-column system has been adopted for the column layout, optimizing stability and load distribution. The overall plan area of the supporting frame measures 16.3 meters by 3.891 meters, providing ample space for the solar panels while maintaining an efficient use of materials. To enhance the project's sustainability and efficiency, careful attention has been given to the choice of materials and construction techniques. Additionally, the design includes provisions for easy maintenance and potential future expansions.
