Dounreay's nuclear flask loading facility project - A new delivery strategy
Events - PublicStarting 30 Jan 2017 - 18:00 through to 30 Jan 2017 - 20:00
The scope of work included the following:
- Concept Design - a fully functional plant proposal was produced with fuel storage, fuel preparation, and onsite flask unloading and offsite road/rail flask loading capability.
- Development of the Safety Case and Environmental documentation.
- Scheme Design – developing the approved concept to enable a technical specification to be produced for Detailed Design and Build Contract.
- Performance of the CDM 2015 roles of Designer and Principal Designer.
The event will look at how the project was delivered using a BIM (Building Information Model) Level 2 process, whereby the majority of plant design definition was incorporated into one 3D model. The team developed new processes for checking/approving designs and working with the 3D model and managed the records electronically which streamlined the process significantly reducing timescales.
The event will also focus on the importance of stakeholder engagement, collaboration, configuration management, and issues management during this nuclear project. In order to fully meet the clients key drivers and business operation, methods of working and customer focus were adapted by Nuvia. As a result, the client declared the project one of its most highly successful projects in recent years.
