Our Client’s Challenge
The VA Iron Mountain Boiler Plant project was a critical expansion to support the operational infrastructure of a federal healthcare facility. As a boiler plant serving a medical center, the structure had to accommodate heavy mechanical equipment, extensive platforms, and service access points. The challenge lay in detailing a robust steel framework with multiple framing levels, walkways, and stairs while maintaining exact compliance with federal safety standards. In addition, the project demanded strict accuracy and quick turnaround to align with the hospital’s operational schedule.
Our Approach And Solution
Nexont Engineering utilized SDS2 to model and detail the entire boiler plant with precision. The detailing team ensured seamless integration of beams, columns, grating supports, and stair systems while providing clear coordination for heavy mechanical load zones. Special emphasis was placed on platforms and access structures, which required exact tolerances for equipment installation and future maintenance. To meet the aggressive schedule, Nexont implemented phased detailing and rapid internal review processes, combined with thorough quality checks at each stage. Close coordination with the engineering team and fabricator allowed timely adjustments, keeping the project aligned with budget, safety, and delivery requirements.
