Pure water storage tank erection in the Saratov Region

Customer: OOO "Holcim (Rus) CM"

Location: Volsk, the Saratov Region

Company sector:
Production of construction-related and special concretes and mixtures.

Date of works held:
December 2021 - December 2022

Project:
Erection of a vertical tank VST-5000 for the pure water storage

The project for the erection of a 5000 m3 pure water storage tank was designed to replace the old equipment at the Customer's facility for the construction mixes production.

In terms of the turnkey supply of the vertical tank the complex project works were performed, including the development of a set of design and detailed documentation: KM project, steel structures details, thermal insulation, anti-corrosion protection and reinforced-concrete structures projects. Foundation work was completely carried out by the Customer.

Construction and erection work on the unrolling of the shell and bottom, the installation of the roof, the application of anti-corrosion protection and the installation of thermal insulation was completed by the end of 2022.

Main specifications:

  1. The operating environment of the tank - pure water;
  2. Tank importance class - KNS-2a;
  3. The tank material - St3sp5, 09G2S;
  4. Scope of work - KM project, steel structures details, thermal insulation, anti-corrosion protection and reinforced-concrete structures projects;
  5. Thermal insulation: 100 mm thickness;
  6. Anti-corrosive protection: Antikor BEP -M, DTM Lux;
  7. Overall dimensions: diameter 22800 mm, height 11920 mm.

Specific features and complexities of the project

Anti-corrosion protection application on the vertical tank for pure water storage

The design solution provided for the overflow pipeline of the operating medium above the filling level of 11200 mm.

There were no strict requirements for the temperature regime of the operating environment: the operating temperature was designed from - 35°C to +35°C, and therefore there was no need to install a heater.

The thermal insulation is made of non-combustible water-repellent ISOROC mineral wool boards with a size of 1000x500x100 mm and with a density of 50 kg/m3 and a designed coefficient of heat conductivity of 0.034 W/M °C. The finishing  material of the thermal insulation of the shell is profiled sheets with a 0.7 mm thick. The finishing material of the roof is a galvanized sheet with a 0.8 mm thick.

The works on the design and erection of the vertical tank VST-5000 for the pure water storage for the enterprise of the production of construction mixes included:

  • a set of design and detailed documentation: KM project, steel structures details, thermal insulation, anti-corrosion protection and reinforced-concrete structures projects;
  • manufacture of the tank steel structures: two rolled-up sheets of the shell, two rolled-up sheets of the bottom with annular plates, a conical paneled roof, hatches and nozzles in the shell and roof, stair tower, platforms and guards on roofs, lightning immunity, overflow pipeline and thermal insulation fasteners;
  • shipment of metal structures to the construction site by road;
  • erection of vertical tank VST-5000 steel structures for pure water;
  • application of anti-corrosion protection from the inside and outside;
  • installation of thermal insulation fasteners, mineral wool boards, coating material;
  • quality control of the work performed in accordance with the project.
