Petrochemical Structures
iEE has extensive expertise in the design, detailing, and review of various projects in the petrochemical industry in Québec and Canada, including:
-
Concrete foundations (shallow and deep) for heavy industrial structures and equipment;
-
Structural supporting systems for Silos (superstructure, pile cap, piles, caissons);
-
Foundation system (on grade, ring wall) for large tanks (LNG, asphalt, chemicals, petrochemicals, etc.);
-
Retrofit of existing structures (concrete, masonry and steel);
-
Table-top foundation for polyreactors, vapour tower, etc.;
-
Foundation for charge pumps, exchangers, filter platforms, valve stations, etc;
