Projects in general

The projects that CDP-CAD, SL (CDELPRO) can carry out are:

  • Urbanization.
  • Public Works.
  • General mechanics: machinery, industrial processes, layout, energy saving, heat recovery…
  • Electricity in general: medium and low voltage, motive power, lighting, tool box cabinets, PA Systems….
  • All kinds of fluids: hot water, overheated water, steam, thermal oil, compressed air, ventilation systems…
  • All kinds of heating and conditioning: industrial premises, buildings, offices, boilers, heat pumps…
  • All kinds of combustibles: fuel oil, natural gas, propane gas, solid fuels…
  • Pressure devices: boilers, reactors, tanks, exchangers…
  • Refrigeration systems: air and water cooling plants, process fluids, cold storage…
  • Fire detection and extinguishing: centralized automatic detection, detectors, alarms, extinguishers (water, CO2)...

As-Built

Final design of the work; it consists of report, list of prices, comparative list of prices, measurements, schedule of conditions and final plans to see what the installations look like.

These documents are delivered in triplicate and in electronic form (diskette).


Measurement

Before carrying out any industrial installation such as fluids, heating, conditioning, pressure devices, refrigeration installations… we recommend having basic working drawings in order to save time and money in the design of the future installation.

Monitoring and management of the work

This is very important, since in this way we can exhaustively control the execution of the work and thus, at the same time, prepare the working drawings that we will use for the final As Built.
Moreover, it will be very useful for the work manager, who will know at any time whether he will be able to satisfy the deadline for delivering; for this reason it is important to carry out this monitoring from the start of the work.


Layout

This is the draft needed to know the different possible distributions of an installation. In this way we take advantage of the maximum space for the placing of the machinery, bearing in mind the human factor and the safety and hygienic regulations.

Once the Layout is approved, the definitive project can be made for the execution of the installation.

Colour plans can also be delivered for improved visualization.


Piping

Axonometrics of pipes that allow a better control of the building materials needed for the work.

It is very important to have this control from the start of the work, since this enables stock control of the materials and the implied costs, allowing subsequent issuing of the certifications to the contracting firm.


Piece list

Partial working drawings diedrics of the elements that form part of the machinery and, depending on how this is, it will be necessary or not to go to the work site.


Computerized drafting (outlining)

We usually work with different programmes with DWG, DGN, DXF and IGR formats for Autocad and Microstation, using digitalizing boards and achieving greater speed; allowing us to transfer a computer to the work site if necessary.

All the information is delivered both in paper and in electronic form (diskette).

Scanning

The type of scanner we use is the compressed form in TIF format; this way we get a better resolution in a shorter time.


Reconstruction of old plans

This method is used either in works in which working drawings have to be modified, taking the old ones as a point of reference, or with firms that want to update plans of previous works to prevent them from deterioration with the passing of time, and thus make good use of them for new projects. The way of proceeding in this case is as follows:

a) Scanning of plans in compressed TIF format.
b) Visualization of the scanning on the monitor.
c) Tracing (vectorized) directly on the scanned plans.

This way we can do without the typical digitalizing board and get, on the one hand, a greater accuracy of the plan and on the other, a faster rate of working.
This method allows saving files with extensions for programmes such as Autocad and Microstation.
