One of the leading chemical firms in the Netherlands invested in constructing a new research centre in the city of Geleen, in The Netherlands. The facility includes multiple laboratories and provides office workspaces for over 400 employees. As proof of its highly sustainable nature, the building was awarded ‘Very Good ‘ label from BREEAM.
The modern facility does not only provide a home for challenging projects in its lab but also when it comes to its piping system. Even though the project entailed the installation of regular cooling and ventilation pipes, process tubes and air ducts, the presence of asymmetrical loads created a big challenge for the installer.
Moreover, there were strict regulations and safety guidelines to be followed during the installation on site.
Walraven engineers supported the load calculations and creation of technical drawings. Small pilots and tests were arranged for the installer to provide reassurance about the quality and suitability of the proposed solution. The technical support team from Walraven was also present on the site regularly to ensure that the overall project and the installation were done in a fast, yet correct manner.
