INTRODUCTION
Background
Project: Pump shed design ( portal frame)
Location: Newman Australia (modern mining town,
with suburban-style homes )
Climate: has an arid climate, with very hot
summers and mild winters.

Material used: Steel (timber is not strong and

no resources for concrete near
by)
Lifespan: 30 years
Specification: Clearance width of 5.7m, overall
length of 16.5m and height to
the underside of the monorail
beam of 4.0m

Design Process
Finding load cases
Analysis using software to get BMD diagrams.
Preliminary calculation to get member sizes
Connection and foundation design
Construction, installation and transportation
methods
Constraints

Need to apply permits

Length > 3.5m and < 5.5m
Connections needed to do on sites

Safety

Common Hazards

Falling from a height while rigging.

Collapse of the structure.
Falling Objects.

We need a Erector supervisor to supervise

on site.

Quality Control
