Methods Utilized for Site Infrastructure Implementationand Layout for Site Construction, cont’d.
• Three dimensional modeling:– It can be developed during early design stages so that the entire
plant can be designed using available software– There would be cases where the vendor already has a design with
approved two dimensional (2-D) drawings that need to be partially modified to account for country specific requirements.
– In such cases, it is recommended that the design drawings are input to the 3-D modelling software to derive the required modifications.
– The only disadvantage in using 3-D modelling is that considerable time is needed to develop interference-free plant layout, to work out the BOM to be procured, and to develop ‘working drawings’ to be used in the field.

FOUNDATION BASE SLAB + LINER
• Large reinforced concrete mat foundations (greater than 5000 m3)• Waterproofing membrane under foundation• Conventional Method:
– Multiple pours, placed to minimize shrinkage– Conventional concrete design mix
• Advanced Methods:– Single pour due to improved concrete technology / concrete mixes
with low shrinkage cement, reduced cement content, increased use of plasticizer admixtures, etc.
– Significant increase in concrete pump use– Increased reliability of batch plants

INTERNAL STRUCTURES
• Conventional Method:– Use preassembled gang wall forms or hand set forms and construct the wall
in multiple repetitive lifts– Construction is up to underside of slabs, construct slab and then proceed
with columns and walls up to next slab– Conventional concrete mixes are used– Scaffolding is supported from the base slab and subsequently from the next
slab
Advanced Methods:– Use Q-deck or left in shutters supported by steel beams, for slabs not
supporting seismically qualified systems– Self consolidating concrete– Self levelling concrete– Proposed methods are to use modular floors and modules with mechanical
and electrical systems. These activities are performed off site and subsequently, the modules are transported to site and installed with a VHL crane
