About the project

Erection and dismantling work at height on the operating Cersanit production site.

Scope of works

Erection and dismantling of ductwork and equipment units at height in operating shops.

01

Task

Operating shops of the Cersanit plant: erection and dismantling work at height — under the roof, above running lines — without stopping production. The work included installing large-section ductwork and dismantling and installing equipment units at height.

Solution

The work was done from lifts and scaffolding in the operating shop to a schedule agreed with the client: the line under the work zone was stopped only for the duration of a lift. Duct sections and units were prepared on the shop floor, so that only the fixings and joints remained at height. The high-level work was carried out by the company’s own crews, which hold a permit for work at height.

Production building frame

The frame of the Cersanit production building, in which the company carried out high-level installation and dismantling work: 949 beams and 133 columns on an 84 × 43 metre plan. The levels in the model correspond to those at which the crews worked under the roof.
