Complex routings
We designed the construction work, structures and installations for the control and maintenance centre. During the process, we used 3D design to ensure that the project was buildable, that there would be no collisions and that structures and installations were error-free.
The installations were rather complex because of the amount of equipment and the many routings to be taken into account. A wide range of engineering disciplines, such as construction, plumbing and electricity installations, fire prevention, sustainability and soil engineering were used in the design. This ensured that the final result was satisfactory both for the client and the end user.
