DURATION OF PROJECT:

6 Months


PROJECT SUMMARY:

Dynamo was retained to fabricate, ship, and install a 9.6 m x 4.5 m control building for the Grenfell Substation.  Drawings were supplied by Dynamo based on a preliminary design provided by SaskPower.


The building construction consisted of a steel skid and I-beam frame with a purlin and girt skeleton. The outside was covered with metal cladding and then finished inside with insulation, vapour barrier, interior walls, and plywood sheeting before being covered with a flat steel liner. Electrical, mechanical, washroom facilities, and raised access floor systems were installed.  Regular QA/QC visits from SaskPower were scheduled.


The scope of work also included shipping to site, placement and welding on the foundations, stair and septic tank installation, and commissioning of building systems.


Similar scopes of work and the same building designs were completed for the Hawarden, Paradise Hill, Riverhurst, Spruce Lake, and Turnor Lake substations.

Dynamo was retained by FWS to complete the design-build of a new, high voltage substation for the plant expansion of the Richardson International Canola Crush facility near Yorkton, SK. 

Dynamo was commissioned to evaluate the electrical distribution system at Viterra’s Thunder Bay grain handling facility and to make recommendations in order to upgrade it to a “Utility Grade” standard. One of the main recommendations from this study was to change out the existing medium voltage fused disconnect style switchgear with breaker switchgear.
