About the project

Welded body of an exhaust filter with inlet and outlet sections and an exhaust hood for a hot-dip galvanising shop.

Scope of works

Fabrication of the filter body, ductwork, exhaust hood and support structures; erection in the client’s shop.

01

Task

The exhaust filter of the dust extraction system of the Metalo Galva Ukraine hot-dip galvanising shop — a sheet-steel structure: a body with stiffening ribs, a sloping top, inspection hatches and duct branches, with inlet and outlet sections. Together with it, an exhaust hood above the galvanising bath. The body, the ductwork with bends, the hood and the support structures had to be fabricated and erected in the client’s shop.

02

Solution

The body was assembled in the shop: sheet steel cut, panels with stiffening ribs welded, joined into a space block and the welds checked before dispatch. Assembly was done on mobile scaffolding under an overhead crane, which allowed the block to be turned and welded from all sides without work at height on site. The ducting was fabricated alongside: pipe sections, bends and flanged nozzles. The body was delivered to site as large an assembly as possible, so that only the site joints, the duct connections and the fixing to the supporting structures remained to be done. Erection was carried out by our own crews.
