The project scope consisted of front-end engineering design to retrofit an existing 400,000 SF nuclear-grade facility for a separate customer and set of operations. The scope included providing full balance-of-plant and infrastructure design for the Client while coordinating interfaces between three large EPC firms. Project execution plans, hazard analyses, engineering deliverables, bid packages, and a modified Class 4 estimate were produced. A level 4 schedule was also developed through detailed design to effectively baseline the project and more closely follow EVMS controls as required by the Client. In addition to standard industrial systems and infrastructure, specialized systems such as 100% outside-air (once-through) ventilation with pressure cascades for contamination control, high-seismic force-resisting systems, and exhaust stack and processing systems were considered.
