【HaiChuan Modular Installation Discussion】Summary Post – Everyone is welcome to participate in the discussion! https://bbs.hcbbs.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1773168----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Recently, the modular lifting operation of the steel ladder at the No. 2 tank of the Fujian LNG receiving station project was officially launched. The successful lifting and installation in this round has addressed the shortcomings in the construction related to the storage tanks, laying a solid foundation for equipment maintenance, safe operation, and the completion and commissioning of the project. It represents an important achievement of the project team’s efforts to carry out the owner-initiated special campaign aimed at \"working hard for 60 days to ensure on-time delivery and safety\". The steel side ladder for storage tanks is a crucial safety component of such tanks. Serving as a dedicated vertical passage for regular inspections of the tank body, identification of potential hazards, and emergency operations at heights, it is directly related to the safety of the tank throughout its operational life as well as during construction. It requires high standards in terms of construction precision, structural stability, and anti-corrosion quality, making it a key aspect of tank construction. To avoid the risks associated with high-altitude assembly work and to improve construction quality and efficiency, the project team adopts a construction method that involves modular prefabrication in the factory, segmented assembly on site, and segmented lifting. During the early stages of construction, the technical team optimized the construction plan by taking into account the operating conditions of the storage tanks and industry standards. They strictly controlled all aspects of the process, including steel cutting, welding, non-destructive testing, and anti-corrosion treatment, and repeatedly verified the dimensions of the modules and their structural strength to ensure project quality from the outset. Upon the arrival of the modules, the construction team efficiently carried out the splicing, calibration, and reinforcement tasks, significantly reducing the need for work at heights involving open flames. This approach helped to shorten the construction timeline, thereby achieving improvements in safety, quality, and efficiency.
