IQA Optimizes Foundation for Four Pressure Vessels in Confined Space Using Bentley’s STAAD Foundation Advanced
Based in Long Beach, Calif., IQA Solutions (IQA) is a multidiscipline engineering firm that provides engineering and technical services for the oil and gas industry. The firm has used STAAD.foundation for foundation analysis and design work on more than 50 projects since adopting the software as a stand-alone solution about three years ago. Its benefits were clearly demonstrated on a recent project for a Los Angeles-based oil production facility, where four vertical vessels had to be installed in a tightly constrained space. |

STAAD Foundation Advanced Provides Comprehensive Foundation Design, India
Apollo Tyres Limited, India’s largest automotive tire manufacturer, is building a new plant on a 126-acre plot, approximately 60 kilometers from Chennai. The entire project has a built area of 167,226 square meters and includes 30 buildings. Among them is the Banbury building, a complex structure measuring 160 meters wide by 77 meters long by 30 meters high. The consulting and engineering firm of Aswathanarayana and Eswara was awarded the structural work for the Banbury and faced some difficult challenges in its design, including the need to accommodate very heavy loads at substantial heights. |
