Job Description

- 3D Modeling & Layout Design:

- Develop intelligent 3D piping models using AutoCAD Plant 3D for various mineral processing units (e.g., crushing/grinding, flotation, thickeners, tailings disposal, slurry handling, and water treatment systems).

- Design equipment layouts, plot plans, and routing configurations keeping constructability, operability, and maintainability in mind.

- Drawing Production:

- Extract and generate accurate Piping General Arrangement (GA) drawings, sections, details, and construction-ready piping isometric drawings.

- Create and maintain standard piping specifications, support standards, and component catalogs within Plant 3D.

- Inter-Disciplinary Coordination:

- Interpret Process & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs;) and translate them accurately into physical piping layouts.

- Coordinate closely with structural, civil, electrical, and mechanical teams to ensure clash-free designs using Navisworks or Plant 3D clash detection tools.

- Coordinate with pipe stress engineers to integrate anchor, guide, and spring support requirements into the layout.

- Material Take-Offs (MTO) & Procurement Support:





- Extract reliable material take-offs (MTOs) for pipes, fittings, valves, and supports directly from the Plant 3D model for procurement and estimation purposes.

- Quality & Compliance:

- Ensure all designs adhere to relevant international codes and standards (e.g., ASME B31.1 / B31.3) as well as client-specific engineering standards.

- Participate in model review meetings (30%, 60%, 90% model reviews) and resolve audit comments systematically.
