MI Concentrate Storage Building spread over 27,795 sq. Fft. in Claypool, Arizona, USA comprises of Conveyor 206 & 209 Tunnel Plans, Elevations and Sections. The Miami

mine, a major copper producer in the Globe-Miami mining area is one of America’s premier copper mining districts. The new structures being constructed in the Miami operations at Arizona area are the part of project extension of the old operating mines. They are being constructed and proposed for the operation of extracting gold & molybdenum ores.

1. In this Mining Project (Miami Operations), we worked with several types of Structures like:A. Conveyor Structures including Drilled Piers, Tunnels with Guide Rail System, Transfer Towers, External & Internal Pillars/Piers B. Stockpile Buildings including Large Foundation Mats & Foundation Walls C. Truck Unloading Buildings & Rail Unloading Buildings for the quick & easy mode of transportation of raw materials.2. We maintained co-ordination between Structure & Rebar for clash free shop drawing creation.3. Checked conveyor post elevation for maintaining the slope of converyor for ease of transport of material.4. Our Co-ordinated drawings helped the iron worker to place the rebar easily.

Project Speciality

Trades Covered: Structure/Rebar

Software Used: Rebar CAD-2018 & Revit 2019

LOD: 400

Challenge - 1 - Checking IFC Drawings - We faced major challenges during the checking of IFC drawings due to missing information & mismatch like Reinforcement Detail for Column at Marked Area, Wall Horizontal Reinforcement Detail, Vertical Bar Spacing, Dimension for

Challenges & Solutions

Project Area: 27,795 sq ft

Our scope of work for the project included: 1. Rebar 3D model Creation2. Shop Drawings/Placing Drawings Preparation from clash free Rebar Model3. Preparation of Bar Bending Schedule as per Structure & Releasing of Bar list as per bid items

Bottom Bar Lap Location and more.Solution - We progressed the work with logical assumption & raised RFIs to client quickly for maintaing the smooth delivery schedule.

Challenge - 2 - Existence of Clashes - During model creation we found clashes between structures, placed in wrong position at design stage.Solution - We suggested solution to client for confirmation by raising RFIs and thus executed Rebar Model & Shop drawings, ensuring clash free installation.

1. Completed Bar Bending Scheduling, helping the project to run on schedule, ensuring communication of accurate information across workers2. Converted Completed BBS into excel format for ease of use3. Automated BBS eliminated errors and reduced the time spent on checking, reducing waste from cuts, saving significant time and cost

Pinnacle’s Value Addition

“The only thing that is behind is, we need the 3D Model for the structures before we ship rebar to the jobsite for these structures. Our customer uses these to help install the rebar in the field and show their workers how certain rebar go together. But overall, I am very impressed with the attention to details, and communication."
