Structural analysis model of a large-scale waste heat recovery facility in Dotternhausen. The project includes the design and analysis of the supporting steel structures for the industrial heat recovery components. The model addresses complex load combinations, including thermal effects and operational loading. Site-specific conditions and the integration of heavy mechanical equipment were taken into account in the design of the structural system.
