Context & Issues
Artelia was commissioned by Elkem Silicones, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of fully integrated silicones, to provide comprehensive design and construction supervision services for new silicone product storage and distribution facilities in Saint-Fons (France).
Artelia handled each stage of the project, from the preliminary design studies through to acceptance of the works in all trades (civil and structural works, sheet metal and pipework, and EICA, using a 3D mock-up).
The works were carried out without interrupting plant operations and in strict compliance with the site's exacting safety procedures.
Project characteristics
- Use of a 3D laser scanner for the surveys,
- Civil engineering, steel framework and pipework design studies performed in 3D.
