Overview Industrial surveying is sometimes used to describe the precise alignment of industrial or equipment and is also sometimes termed “optical tooling.” Although some overlap exists between this process and traditional surveying techniques, SDA primarily focuses on the precise surveying layout work that is required to set the foundation for a project before the , , machine installers or toolmakers take over to perform the final measurements and installation. In these types of applications, surveyors are often followed by other professionals who use tilting levels, laser trackers, and other measurements to achieve sub-millimeter accuracy.

Projects for manufacturing plants, steel mills, refineries, and power plants comprise the bulk of our industrial work. Owners include automotive companies and suppliers, defense manufacturers, energy producers, and steel makers. Services involve providing layout for installing process line support steel in existing facilities; setting control for process or assembly lines; layout for piles, footings, piers, foundations, and anchor bolts for new construction; layout for architectural or screen-wall assembly for buildings; anchor-bolt and steel-erection surveys; crane rails surveys; coal volume surveys; and verification and as-built surveys. The common thread between these projects is the large scale of the construction, the exacting tolerances required, and the relative complexity of the projects and plans.

Industrial sites require stringent safety practices, exacting tolerances, and attention to detail.

Spalding DeDecker Associates, Inc. (SDA) has performed several different types of projects across the United States. Some of the services we have provided include:

Architectural Metal and Screen Wall Layout Layout for Plant Process Lines Modern building construction often includes a Process equipment such as paint lines within a paint shop require framework to support the building and a modular screen wall to support steel located along the line. This support steel is typically encapsulate the structure and provide architectural highlights. attached to the concrete plant floor by drilling holes and setting Precise layout is required to assure that the various panels are quick-set bolts or anchoring the bolts with epoxy. This task typically plumb and aligned in all planes. Alternating windows and building requires the precise layout for dozens of columns and hundreds of panels typically leave very little room for error, with little allowance individual bolts. provided for variations in spacing. Because line of sight from one panel to the next is an aesthetic issue, it is critical that all joint Coal Volume Surveys lines are precisely aligned. All of this demands precise, exacting Power plant operators require accurate volume surveys on a regular tolerances for surveying layout and specialized techniques. basis in order to confirm their usage computations versus their delivery records and actual remaining volumes. Because the volume SDA is experienced in working on projects with a variety of of coal varies greatly depending on the type, source, and method construction elements, including architectural metal, glass, pre- of stockpiling, reconciling the calculations can be a challenge and manufactured panels, and other details. having accurate measurements is critical.

SDA is able to use conventional surveying measurements, laser scanning, or automated methods to accurately compute coal stockpile volumes. www.sda-eng.com | (800) 598-1600 Engineering Consultants | Infrastructure | Land Development | Surveying SPALDING DEDECKER Industrial Surveying

Anchor Bolt As-Built Measurements and Drawings As-built surveys of anchor bolts are typically requested prior to beginning steel-erection. These surveys are critical to spotting problems while there is time to make corrections. Correcting these problems in advance helps to avoid costly down time and scheduling issues during the steel-erection process.

SDA typically verifies furnished site control and locates the centerline of each bolt pattern. We then calculate the offset of the as-built column in relation to the proposed centerline, the measured distance between bolt patterns, the bolt projection, and the top of concrete elevation. Additional measurements can be made to determine the orientation of the bolt patterns to determine if they are skewed in relation to the column lines. For larger bolt patterns, templates can be made for a test fit of bolts to spot problems early on if bolts are leaning or incorrectly spaced. Results are typically presented in a and spreadsheet format.

Layout and As-Built Locations for Crane Rail Supplemental Layout for Steel Erection Crane rail installation typically requires exacting specifications for Supplemental layout may include establishing the bottom of base horizontal and vertical alignment. SDA provides layout, as well as plate elevations by setting shims or setting one leveling nut to as-built measurements and drawings to support this precise work. the proposed elevation. For structural steel that requires precise Depending on the type of system installed, this critical work may alignment, we have also provided assistance in plumbing individual begin with assistance in installing the support columns and crane columns. In some applications we have also provided horizontal and girders. SDA provides reports relative to standards of the Crane vertical alignment for crane girders. All these steps are critical for Manufacturer’s Association of America (CMAA) for rail span, the final crane rail installation, assuring that proper eccentricity is straightness, elevation, and eccentricity. This includes evaluating achieved, meaning that the rail is centered on the crane girder. direct measurements as well as the rate of change.
