Current Situation
Dry docks are usually
uncovered and open to the sky. This is because, covers are assumed to be
not
technically feasible to be retrofitted due
to location of dock cranes (LL Goliath cranes) and services.
Mobile Shelters
Mobile shelters give shipyards the option of covering the docks without impeding crane operations.
Installation of Shelters increases shipbuilding ship repair productivity substantially.
At a defense shipyard, installation of these
shelters resulted in a reported 30-35% increase in productivity.
Shelters can be fitted on dry docks,
floating dry docks, slipways, dry berths, etc. We are an OEM for Mobile Shelters.
Key Features
The state-of-the art self-propelled portable shelters are
light-weight because of their unique design construction
and require minimum, site civil works.
The shelters are custom designed as per prevalent wind, seismic, snow loads and can be supplied on single rail or
in telescopic configuration, upto 3 sets of rails, as per user requirements.
Since they are completely custom engineered, building them in
all sizes is possible (spans up to 100m/ heights up to 55m).
Currently, shelters are being designed to meet extreme wind speeds up to 250 Km/hr (sustained) and 300 Km/Hr. (gusts)
and can be easily operated with the help of the Radio Remote Control.
Portable Shelters have an extremely short ROI payback period for the following reasons:
Increased shipyard productivity GRSE have reported substantial productivity increases (up to 35-40%) due to
installation of Shelters.
Increased worker comfort- temperature reduction in the range of 8-10 degrees.
Year round working possible during monsoon, summer winter months.
Secrecy satellite look ins not possible.
Shelters are designed erected without disrupting yard activities and are customized to fit in extremely tight
clearances considering existing dock infrastructure, including cranes, etc.
Optional Ad-ons
Shelters can be customized as per user requirements and optionally equipped with:
Gable end vertical opening doors.
Side doors.
Integrated EOT cranes, hoists, etc.
Specialized lighting electrical packages.
Adjustable working platforms.
Compressed air/service lines.
Lifting hooks, etc.
Rubber tires.
Bi-directional wheel movement.
