Eagle Downs Coal Mine Structural Integrity
AEP Elical was selected by Eagle Downs Coal Mine (EDCM) to conduct a structural integrity audit. AEP used its civil expertise to visually inspected all structures and infrastructure on-site to assess the current condition of steel and concrete structures, and produced a report for the client. The potential risk exposure to EDCM was also evaluated.
AEP Elical completed asset integrity review of the Material Handling System (MHS) for the BHP Olympic Dam mine.
AEP Elical was engaged to provide a peer review of the design of proposed modifications to the supporting structure for the proposed new super hopper.
AEP Elical was engaged to undertake a structural inspection and condition report on the copper smelter crushing plant, a concept design to improve access to the bosh tank and a preliminary inspection of one of the two cooling towers.
AEP Elical performed a structural audit on existing TPC ROM Hopper concrete structure and the capacity of the structure to accommodate the loading cases associated w/ ROM grizzly re-design (by AEP Elical also).
AEP Elical was engaged to undertake a concept study, followed by detailed design of structural modifications required to provide access for slag removal under the Slag Caster tail end support frame. As part of this project, AEP Elical undertook a structural integrity audit for the TSL Slag Caster Support Structure as well as additional scope in replacement of existing primary beam in the TSL plant and shedder plates to lengthen design life.
