Customised elevated
Heliofix Asbestos Sheet mounting structure is one stop solution for asbestos sheet. This Aluminum Based/HDG structure plays vital role in reducing the weight of entire system.
Asbestos Sheet Mounting
Our Customise elevated structures are designed and engineered to cater to specific site conditions
since we realize that every project is unique. Our design philosophy is to ensure that our solutions
are economical to procure, practical to install, and diligently conform to all requisite design codes
and methodologies.
Our design team comprises professionals and solution driven approach with deep core
competencies and a keen focus on ensuring practicality of design. Globally accepted designing tools
like SketchUp, AutoCAD, STAAD Pro, etc. are employed in tandem during the design process to
spawn the required solution.
We recognize that actual conditions and loads are known to differ from design simulation
conditions. Our elevated systems can be installed on any roof, irrespective of the obstacles within
the terrace area. Our rooftop mounting structures, which offer both penetrative and non-
penetrative solutions successfully cater to all types of roofs including RCC and sheet metal.
Structural integrity and safety is afforded the topmost priority during the design process. The
expected life of a solar power plant is 25 years and we ensure that structures are designed in a
manner to ensure achieving of said milestone.
On-Site Analysis
Site characteristics are analyzed with specific attention to detail to ensure that a structure solution is in line with all operative design code requirements. The following data is of paramount importance
to ensure flawless design of a module mounting structure:
- For RCC roofs, detailed rooftop layouts identifying obstacles.
- For sheet-metal roofs – roofing type, roofing configuration, condition of roofing, and design details of supporting structure.
- For penetrative rooftop solutions, pull out tests to test the strength of anchoring to support structure.
A typical mounting structure solution passes through the following stages during the in-house design
analysis.
- Structural Analysis – Analysis of wind loads and dead loads using STAAD Pro. Data from on- site pull-out tests is utilized to finalize anchor depths and sheet metal strength.
- 2D drafts of General Arrangement and Structural Members, using AutoCAD
- Review, Final Checks and Final Approval.
- Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of individual structural members or specific connections is performed to further corroborate the stability of the structural design. This is executed on specific client request, on case-to-case basis.
The following codes are strictly adhered to during the design procedure:
Design of Steel
- Design of steel structures as per IS 800, 801
- Design of Loads as per IS 875
- Foundation Design
- IS 456 – Plain and Reinforced Concrete
- BRE DG 489 – Design of ballast foundation
- SP 16 – Design aids for reinforced concrete
Fabrication of Steel
- IS 2062 – Specification of structural steel for fabrication
- ASTM 653 – Standard Specification for Steel Sheet, Zinc Coated (Galvanized) by the Hot-DipProcess
- General tolerances will be in accordance with ISO 2768
- Dimensions of structural steel as per IS 811
Customers, who do not want to lose out on their rooftop space, are requesting for elevated structures on their terrace. Most of the elevated structures need grouting (which involves drilling
holes into the terrace for fixing the bolts) to ensure stability of the structure. However, the customers are concerned about water leakages and in case of apartments, the resident living on the topmost floor is sometimes unwilling to give permission to drill onto the roof. To alleviate all of these concerns, we have waterproofing solutions to seal the grouted area and non-
penetrating solutions using adhesive & foundations for our discerning customers. EcoSoch has installed numerous elevated structures using our fabricators with grouting and has installed a non- penetrating elevated structure on top of our office roof, which you are welcome to have a look. We have elaborated these solutions below.
