🏭 Project Overview
Bastion Group provided structural engineering services to support critical maintenance activities at multiple Santee Cooper power generation facilities, including the Winyah Plant. These projects centered on safely facilitating boiler system overhauls, requiring both permanent structural modifications and temporary support systems.
🛠️ Scope of Services
Across several project phases, Bastion’s team designed and delivered:
- Custom-engineered monorail systems for material handling inside boiler units
- Temporary bracing and rigging support designs to enable safe removal and replacement of internal components
- Structural evaluations and re-certifications of existing lifting systems
- Detailed engineered drawings and calculation packages for contractor and utility coordination
🧩 Engineering Strategy
Our approach emphasized flexibility, safety, and rapid response—coordinating directly with both contractor teams and plant personnel to ensure installation timelines were met without disruption to operations. All work was completed in compliance with South Carolina engineering standards and stamped by licensed professional engineers.
✅ Value Delivered
Through precise structural planning and clear documentation, Bastion Group helped optimize outage efficiency, reduce downtime, and enhance safety during boiler maintenance cycles. Our ongoing support helps ensure that these critical energy assets remain reliable and well-maintained.
