Gypsum storage - space structure technology
1. Gypsum storage - Structural Engineering
A soft white or gray mineral consisting of hydrated calcium sulfate. It occurs chiefly in
sedimentary deposits and is used to make plaster of Paris and fertilizers, and in the building
industry. Gypsum, a white mineral soft enough to be scratched with a fingernail, is hydrated
calcium sulfate [Ca(SO4) 2H2O]. Gypsum often begins as calcium sulfate dissolved in an
isolated body of salt water. As the water evaporates, the calcium sulfate becomes so
concentrated that it can no longer remain in solution and crystallizes out (precipitates) as
gypsum. Many large beds of gypsum have been formed in this way.
Gypsum occurs in a number of distinct forms, including a clear, parallelogram-shaped
crystal (selenite); a white, amorphous form (alabaster, used for ornamental carving); and a
fibrous, lustrous form (satin spar, used in jewelry). When ground up and heated to drive off
its water, gypsum becomes a powder termed plaster of Paris. Plaster of Paris has the useful
property of hardening in any desired shape when mixed with water, molded, and allowed to
dry.
2. Gypsum is one of the most widely used minerals in the world. Some 90 countries mine
gypsum, producing more than 100 million tons (91 million metric tons) annually. The
construction industry has long been particularly gypsum intensive. In the late nineteenth
and early twentieth century’s gypsum was widely used in plastering, which since the 1950s
has been displaced by gypsum drywall (sheetrock). Gypsum is also an ingredient in Portland
cement, which used in the construction of bridges, buildings, highways and millions of tons
of gypsum used annually as fertilizer. Small quantities of pure gypsum are essential in
smelting, glassmaking, and other industries.
Low-grade gypsum is manufactured synthetically at coal-fired electric power plants as a by-
product of pollution-control processes that remove sulfur from flue gas. Synthetic gypsum
production exceeds 110 million tons (100 million metric tons) annually.
Gypsumstorage
We want to make storage easy for you; we proved long span steel structure for your gypsum pile
We would like to propose Large Span Steel Shed, which can be used to cover gypsum; it can
built with a span of up to 150 m and height of up to 40 m.
Gypsumstorage shed:
The construction systems uses mild steel in case of gypsum storage, no welding is required
because the connection of the member consists of a very efficient moment-resistant
mechanical joint. Gypsum storage shed may be built in single- or double-layer
configurations, depending on the load and span. Experience suggests large spans are
required in gypsum storage; a-double-layer is the most cost-effective
Gypsum storage sheds are often built over operating stockpiles since construction can
proceed without interrupting operations. Because our erection process does not require
machines to be installed internal periphery of the span.
3. Roofing of the structure:
Galvalume is typically use for roofing purpose, Galvalume is lustrous spangled appearance is
attractive enough to be used without painting. The GALVALUME sheet is a unique product
which is suitable for heating and ventilation applications. It has better resistance towards
oxidation and can withstand temperatures up to 315°C without discoloration. This feature of
Galvalume enables us to use on limestone shed for roofing purpose.
Key Features
Smooth Surface and uniform spangled appearance
Excellent quoting with anti-fingerprint to ensure better appearance and longer life
Surface treatment as per ROHS (Restriction On Hazardous Substance) norms
Wider thickness range with tighter tolerances to ensure precision in end-applications
Advantage of Gypsum storage shed:
For achieving effective prevention and control of potential fugitive emission
Lesser Operation and Maintenance cost
Comply with current environmental guidelines by CPCB (Central Pollution control
board)
Protection from weird environmental condition
Conclusion:
Our Structure is fully Complying with new environmental regulations for air quality,
Prevention and control of fugitive emission. Instead of investing in temporary solution, it is
recommended to adopt permanent solution. Our solutions presented here not only allow
affordable compliance, but also enhance the reputation of your plant. In addition, one time
investment is much more economical than the periodic investments
