The expansion added 12 m diameter tanks needing inlet and outlet pipework, a standpipe, flowmeters and an access walkway over the tank.
We designed the full tank hydraulics and a steel truss walkway with its foundations, coordinated everything in an IFC model and issued the tender drawings, including the tank outlet isometrics.
