Ten years of rapid development in chemical processing equipment – praise for China’s prosperity and strength. This is just a starting point; more participation will make things even more lively. Haichuan becomes even better with your involvement; we welcome everyone to join in the forum discussions. Everyone should focus on safety and know how to handle emergencies. ********************************************* On June 26th, the construction of the overall framework of the vertical warehouse for the Tianjin Nangang ethylene project was completed, marking a key milestone in the development of this world-class, green and intelligent vertical warehouse. Once it is operational, it will become the largest vertical warehouse for storage purposes in Sinopec’s network. It has a building area of 21,550 square meters and is designed with 38,252 storage units, capable of holding approximately 57,378 tons of polyolefin products.

This automated storage warehouse features 112 concrete individual columns, with no connecting beams between them; it requires high levels of verticality and precision, making design and construction challenging. To address the two major challenges associated with the installation of concrete columns and steel grid structures in automated storage facilities, and to optimize the construction of such facilities, Sinopec Tianjin Branch, in collaboration with Sinopec Engineering Construction Company and Sinopec Tenth Construction Company, focused on the construction environment and emphasized innovation as a driving force. They developed new construction methods, and for the first time in China’s engineering sector, adopted a new construction approach that uses prefabricated concrete columns, thereby increasing work efficiency by more than 50% compared to traditional construction methods. For the first time, a new installation method of \"ground assembly with hydraulic integral lifting + aerial filling supports\" was adopted, enabling the main structure at the top of the vertical warehouse to be installed in one go. This significantly reduces the safety risks associated with work at heights, and it opens up new possibilities for the modular construction of large-span overhead grid structures in the petrochemical engineering industry.
