9.1 PENTHOUSE CONSTRUCTION PROPOSALS – GANTRY SYSTEM


A proposed construction strategy is to pre-
assemble on the ground the main structure
gantries, erect it and finalize the secondary
frames at place;

Temporary bracings and purlins should be used


until the interconnection beams will be
installed and the structure stability is
guaranteed;

It is recommended that the roof- and parts of sidewall sheeting shall be installed as soon as the
penthouse structure is erected. Part of sidewall must be left un-sheeted to allow for inserting
combustion air ducts, piping and equipment;

33
REFORMER - ERECTION SEQUENCE
CONSTRUCTABILITY DEPARTMENT

9.2 PENTHOUSE CONSTRUCTION PROPOSALS – MODULAR

Construction sequence strategically and technically more challenging would be to pre-assembly the
upper part of the Penthouse on the ground with inlet pipes installed, including Pig Tails, Main and Sub-
Header and all spring hangers;

34
REFORMER - ERECTION SEQUENCE
CONSTRUCTABILITY DEPARTMENT

9.3 PENTHOUSE CONSTRUCTION PROPOSALS – STICK BY STICK

Considering a bigger number of liftings on a


construction sequence in stick by stick base and
the reduced laydown area is proposed use a Tower
Crane;

Benefits of Tower Crane:


- Small area required for stabilize;
45m 45m

- Large area covered by the boom achieving the
pre-assembly areas;
- Superior lifting speed;
- Good load capacity;

9.1 RADIANT ARCH SUPPORTS

It is recommended that directly after the penthouse steel


structure is stable, the radiant arch be suspended (connecting the
tie rods with the radiant floor);

Only after the radiant arch is suspended, rest of work on radiant


arch may commence;

expansion of each pigtail, taking into account the insulation thickness, has been verified, the pigtail
can be welded to the catalyst tubes, as well as to the sub-header.

Installation of the inlet main header and expansion loop including supporting can be executed
thereafter.

Finally the connection pipes in between the main header and sub-header are to be fitted and
welded.

Pneumatic test should be performed;
