Dome Certification
PCE was engaged by an ongoing client to audit and provide a design check of their dome structures on their mine site. This involved going to site and measuring each dome structure using an EWP. Once the measurements were obtained, we were able to model each dome and provide design parameters, maximum wind ratings and provide compliance recommendations.
Catenary Crossing
PCE has provided detailed structural design and certification for a recently constructed catenary crossing for a mine in the Bowen Basin. The crossing spans the nearby Isaac River for a total of approximately 190m. The catenary crossing allows monitoring systems and infrastructure to be flood immune, as it no longer traverses the riverbed.
Annual Structural Integrity Audits
Over the past ten years, PCE has undertaken various audits (surface structures, underground structures, seam gas, asbestos and more) at numerous coal mines in the Bowen Basin. PCE works with the client to prepare a custom-tailored report to suit their risk rating procedures and standards.
MNCM Seam Gas Walkway
In 2020 PCE prepared the design a documentation of a small pedestrian walkway at Moranbah North Coal Mine. This project is a great example of PCE’s innovative skillset as a previously redundant elevated platform was used and modified to suit the project.
