Description Of The Request
Resolve an issue of abnormal vibrations in an FRP tank.
The project began with the identification of a critical issue: abnormal vibrations affecting the performance of a fiberglass-reinforced plastic (FRP) tank. These vibrations posed a potential risk to the structural integrity of the tank, possibly leading to premature wear, operational inefficiencies, and even safety hazards. The client approached us with the need for a comprehensive solution that could not only mitigate the current vibrations but also prevent similar issues from arising in the future.
The vibrations were affecting the tank’s stability, and immediate attention was required to ensure that the tank could continue to operate under optimal conditions. Our team of engineers performed a thorough analysis of the tank’s design and operational parameters, identifying weak points that were contributing to the vibration issue.
Outcome
Installation of 2 reinforcements on the roof of the tank at the DCL site, according to our engineering design.
After a detailed evaluation, our engineering team developed a custom solution tailored to the specific requirements of the FRP tank and the conditions at the DCL site. The solution involved the installation of two reinforcements on the roof of the tank. These reinforcements were designed to counteract the abnormal vibrations, providing additional structural support to critical areas of the tank.
The reinforcements were meticulously designed using advanced engineering techniques, ensuring that they would integrate seamlessly with the existing structure without adding excessive weight or altering the tank’s original function. The design was both robust and efficient, allowing for an easy installation process without significant downtime for the tank’s operation.
On-site at DCL, our team executed the installation with precision, ensuring that the reinforcements were securely positioned according to our engineering plans. Once installed, the reinforcements immediately contributed to stabilizing the tank, reducing vibrations to a normal range and restoring the tank’s operational integrity.
This solution not only resolved the immediate issue but also fortified the tank against potential future structural challenges, improving its durability and performance.

The Result of Project
After identifying the issue of abnormal vibrations in the FRP tank, our team implemented the proposed solution by installing two strategically placed reinforcements on the roof of the tank. These reinforcements were designed based on our precise engineering plans and installed on-site at the DCL facility.
The result of the project was a significant reduction in vibrations, ensuring the structural stability and longevity of the tank. This solution not only resolved the immediate problem but also improved the overall performance of the tank, providing a safer and more reliable operational environment.
