Substation and Switchyard Structural Design

• Prepare structural design drawings for substation and
switchyard equipment support structures — gantry frames, A-frames, equipment
pedestals, bus-support structures, and lightning mast foundations at 11 kV, 33
kV, 66 kV, and 132 kV voltage levels

• Develop substation and switchyard structural layout
drawings — equipment foundation positions, cable trench routing, cable duct
banks, and control building structural layout

• Carry out structural analysis using STAAD Pro for
gantry structures, equipment supports, cable trench walls, duct banks, and
control building frames — gravity loads, wind loads, seismic loads, and
equipment energetic loads

• Prepare column, beam, footing, and slab design
calculations for substation control buildings and pump house structures as per
IS 456 and IS 800

• Design and detail structural steel elements — gantry
columns, rafters, bracing, and bolted connections as per IS 800 and IS 875

• Prepare reinforced concrete design calculations for
equipment foundations, cable trenches, transformer plinth,



circuit breaker
foundations, and cable duct banks as per IS 456 and IS 1893

3D Modelling and Structural Detailing (Tekla Structures)

• Build 3D structural models of substation gantry
structures, control buildings, equipment support frames, and cable trench
systems in Tekla Structures

• Produce fabrication-level structural steel shop
drawings — general arrangement (GA) drawings, part drawings, connection
details, bolt schedules, and weld schedules from the Tekla model

• Generate bar bending schedules (BBS) and reinforcement
detailing drawings for all RCC elements directly from the Tekla model

• Coordinate structural model with electrical equipment
layout received from the Electrical Design team — verify clearances, foundation
positions, and cable trench alignments

• Manage model revisions in Tekla; issue IFC-level
drawings from the model following ETPL drawing revision control standards
