A steel-cage construction of seven floors is designed with a ground<br />

plan size of 20,0 x 14,8 m.<br />

The steel structure of the preheater is situated on a reinforced<br />

concrete floor (+10,8 m) by using elastomer bearings; the top<br />

floor is situated on +93,8 m. In the second stage was erected an<br />

elevator structure on this floor on the side of concrete silos. The<br />

highest element has a maximum level of +107 meter. With regard<br />

to the erection it was determined that the steel structure would be<br />

mainly bolted. The longitudinal circumferential main girders were<br />

calculated as elements with fixed ends to columns. All bolts of<br />

the circumferential girders and bracing were designed from steel<br />

grade 10.9.<br />

The building-up of the preheater tower was realized during the<br />

activities of the plant and above the existing production line<br />

(the new preheater tower was erected near the existing steel<br />

structure).<br />

The steel-cage construction of the preheater tower, including<br />

the technological equipment, was executed in a time-span of 5<br />

months.<br />

The complex became operational after a shut down of two months<br />

due to connection works of the new and existing technological<br />

equipments.<br />

Economical aspects conditioned the design of the structure and<br />

using of a lot of economical rolled profiles of various types. In this<br />

way we reached a very low consumption of steel in comparison to<br />

the cubic meter of enclosure space.<br />

Weight of steel structure of the preheater tower: 869 000 kg<br />

Weight of outer steel staircase: 47 000 kg<br />

Weight of elevator shaft: 41 000 kg<br />

Total weight of steel structures: 957 000 kg<br />

Total weight of installed technological equipments: 1 776 000 kg<br />

Preheater for cement tower plant<br />

‘<strong>VSH</strong> <strong>Turòa</strong> <strong>nad</strong> <strong>Bodvou</strong>’ - Slovakia<br />

The skeleton structure of the preheater has the following<br />

dimensions in the ground plan: 20,0 x 14,8 m and a height<br />

of 93,8m, it consists of seven floors. The steel structure was<br />

realized as a bolted construction with high-strength screws<br />

because the given assembly time was very limited. The<br />

realised design was very economical; the weight of the steel<br />

structure was very low compared to the large build-up space.<br />
