• Standards models were constructed in BOCAD, then copied/modified to suit individual site requirements.

City Square

Perth, Western Australia

2009 - 2010

City Square is a 45 storey high rise tower development currently under construction in Perth.

3D Drafting provided:

• Shop Detailing and 3D modelling of 9000t of structural steel and 1000t of column reinforcement
• Full profiling of the circular column shafts was achieved with a robotic pipe profiler using 3D DXF data from the BOCAD 3D model, including slots for cleats, weld preps and holes for slab reinforcement
• Full NC data for floor beams including web penetrations for HVAC and other services
• Drawings for column reinforcement and layout of Bondek decking for floor slabs.

Boddington Gold Mine Expansion (BGME)

Boddington, Western Australia

2007 – 2008

BGME project was designed to increase the mine’s gold and copper production to become Australia’s largest gold producer.

Ravensthorpe Nickel Project

Ravensthorpe, Western Australia

2005 - 2006

Australia produces 13% of the world’s nickel with Western Australia producing 99% of that amount.

Ravensthorpe Nickel was set up to use Enhanced Pressure Acid Leach technology.

3D Drafting provided:

• Shop detailing and 3D modelling of 1500t structural steel, grating/floor plate and handrail for Beneficiation Plant, Limestone Plant, Sulphuric Acid Plant and all of the site pipe-racks
• SDNF files which were imported from Intergraph FrameWorks Plus and steel and handrail and exported back using PML files for clash detection within the design environment
