Retracom Transportable Buildings has just delivered a Fire
Rated HV Switchroom to MPA Engineering who are the main electrical
subcontractors to Monadelphous as part of flood resilience works at Urban
Utilities Oxley Creek WTP (Water Treatment Plant).
The facility suffered $32 million worth of damage in the Brisbane
Floods of 2011 and forced part of the plant offline. A range of flood proofing
measures are being rolled out including raising electrical equipment, such as
switchboards, 30cm higher than the 2011 flood peak.
Industrial and residential
growth in the area also dictated a capacity increase from 53 million to 65
million litres of sewage a day.
The HV switchroom measured 15.5x5.5x3.9m externally and
because it was specified with a (2 hour FRL) or 120/120/120 fire rating level
the building was constructed using flameguard sandwich panel in combination
with various other fire certified elements. The total building tare weight was
nearing 22 tons and it will be fitted out insitu with approximately 8-9 tons of
switch gear and control equipment by MPA over coming weeks. Retracom had also previously
supplied a smaller modular fire rated digestor switchroom.
These kind of inventions are a gift by the engineers to the world. Because they are life saving products otherwise hundred of people die in floods.
