Clinic and MCC Coal Buildings
The Tufanbeyli Thermal Power Station operated by Enerjisa stands as a 450 MW coal-fired facility in Tufanbeyli, Turkey, utilizing locally mined lignite for power generation. Constructed in the 2010s, the power plant comprises three units and incorporates a low water consumption design. Our contribution to the project involves delivering structural design and static projects for supplementary structures.
The prefabricated Infirmary Building, spanning 19 meters in width, 11 meters in length, and featuring a net floor height of 2.6 meters, is designed to withstand the test of time with a minimum lifespan of 15 years. Structural calculation reports were meticulously prepared for both the reinforced concrete foundation and the steel structure, considering the necessity of pouring sub-base concrete on the existing 20 cm thick steel fiber-filled concrete (C30/37) to prevent water ingress.
Additionally, our scope includes adding a floor to the existing MCC Coal Building. The steel floor was seamlessly integrated using the same axis as the reinforced concrete, without any structural elements resting on the floor. The innovative design involves cutting a parapet on existing columns, removing the screed and insulation material, and connecting them through chemical anchors, creating a robust steel moment-resisting frame system. An external steel staircase, supported by steel columns, will be added for access to the upper floor. Our structural solutions ensure the efficiency and longevity of these critical components within the Tufanbeyli Power Station.
