Sweco’s Comprehensive Project Management and Engineering
Within this project, Sweco has taken on the general project management, including the management and monitoring of the change process and the financial project aspect. To realise efficient engineering, large parts of the installation were mapped out using the laser scanning technique. This allowed the most optimal routing in the existing installation to be determined during the engineering phase.
Complete enclosure of the fire extinguishing network supply line
The project included the complete enclosure (creation of a ring pipeline) of the supply line of the fire extinguishing network. The necessary shut-off valves were added for this purpose in order to obtain specific partial consignments and a new, additional connection was provided to the underground mains network. In addition, 12 existing extinguishing stations were adapted and automatic extinguishing facilities were added. Using new, modified extinguishing curtains a separation was created between the two entities. A modernisation of the existing foam installation was also part of the project scope. Here, the existing foam installation with bladder tanks was replaced by a new larger collector, two larger foam tanks and a foam injection pump.
Sweco’s thorough construction management strategy
Given the nature of the installation, the construction management was also entrusted to Sweco. This translated into a thorough construction management strategy. This was already started during the design phase with the preparation of an HSE strategy, a quality plan and the elaboration of the previous construction planning.
