Shandong Iron & Steel Group decided to build a 2×65-megawatt surplus gas power generation facility. Shandong Province Metallurgical Engineering is responsible for design, construction, and trial operation. The project presented a small footprint and a complicated pipeline layout, as well as required digital delivery. They realized that continuing with their conventional 2D power generation design methods would not suffice, and that they needed to adopt 3D collaborative design processes.They used Bentley’s factory digital design applications to rationally arrange the massive piping system and maximize the use of vertical space. By accurately reducing the pipeline height and resolving clashes prior to construction, they improved design quality by 13%. Using ProjectWise as the collaborative management platform streamlined workflows and improved design productivity. Bentley’s integrated 3D digital solution enhanced overall design efficiency by 35% and reduced design costs by 18% compared to conventional 2D processes.
