BOILER ERECTION

• Column erection
• Pressure part erection
• Miscellaneous
COLUMN ERECTION

• The boiler presently in use are hanging type.


• The column are broken up during manufacture
into several pieces and transported to site
• Where it is pre assembled in two or three pieces
and erected.
• Utmost care is taken in the pre-assembly stage
to maintain the matching of the of the column
end faces and to achieve vertically well within
the tolerance limit
COLUMN ERECTION

• Verticality is single most important factor


and is given top priority
• The maximum column verticality is 20mm.
• Once the column erection is over up to the
full height cross beams are placed
securely over the column which supports
the main boiler
COLUMN ERECTION

• In order to carry out this job special


erection tool like cranes with extra long
boom to carry heavy loads at that height
are used.
• After cross beam erection, entire structure
is adequately braced to achieve sufficient
strength.

3. Advantage and Weakness of Construction Method

Description ▣ Modulization / Concurrence


\Type
▣ Typical Construction Method
Construction Methods

⊙ Earlier completion through Modulization ⊙ Many years of experience and Know-How


/Concurrence Construction To utilize standard data /Data base
Advantage
⊙ Competitive time for completion ⊙ Reduction design M/H
Curtailment of S/S materials
Reduction manufacturing/installation cost

⊙ Lay down Area need for pre-ass’y at site

⊙ Increasing Equipment / Construction Labor ⊙ Long time for completion


Cost
⊙ High risk of safety accident due to lots of
Weakness ⊙ Increasing Module temporary material and works
S/S materials (about 50% ) at the high elevation

⊙ Long duration for S/S design


and Complicated design
2. Comparison of Construction Methods

▣ Modulization / Concurrence ▣ Typical Construction Method


Construction Methods

⊙ Concurrent construction of S/S and Boiler ⊙ Boiler installation after completion of S/S
installation
⊙ S/S Modulization on the ground
⊙ Core Frame, Subsidiary S/S and Boiler ⊙ Separate installation of S/S 1Tier ~ 5 Tier
installation at the same time with Bottom-Up method

⊙ Lifting after Moduliztion on the ground, Erection ⊙ Unit Lifting and installation
⊙ Using special Lifting device : ⊙ Using ordinary construction lifting device
Hydraulic jack - to be able to lift Module
[2,500Tons] ⊙ Site assembly of Boiler equipment
⊙ Site assembly of Boiler equipment ▶ - Ground assembly : 20%,
▶ - Ground assembly : 70%, - Assembly after installation : 80%
- Assembly after installation : 30%
⊙ Planning and scheduling for concurrent
construction sequence Planning
