Structural integrity assessment of existing coal-unloading jetty & proposed rectification and control measure works of deck structures at Tanjung Bin Power Plant

Service type : Condition Assessment

The Tanjung Bin power Plant (TBPP), 2,100 MW generating capacity coal fired power plant, is located at the southern west tip of Peninsula Malaysia at the mouth of Pulai River in the States of Johore Darul Takzim.

Generally, steel and reinforced-concrete structures at ports/jetties that are exposed to the harsh marine environment can suffer corrosion-induced deterioration and chlorine ions in seawater.

Status
Stage 1 - Completed (2019)
Stage 2 - Completed (2021)
Scope
- Engineering & Condition Assessment Consultancy Service
- Supervision and HQ Support Services for Stage 2 Works : Repair Works

The marine environment will have varying effects on different materials depending on the exposure. Atmosphere, splash, tidal, submerged and subsoil have very different characteristics, and therefore have different influences on corrosion. Submerged and splash zones typically experience the most corrosion.

Malakoff Corporation Berhad (Malakoff) (hereinafter referred to as the “client”) has engaged Prestasi Perintis Sdn Bhd (PPSB) as the Engineering and Supervision Consultant to carry out the structural integrity assessment, concrete repair and protection works to appraise the problems associated with the concrete spalling and steel structure corrosion at Coal Unloading Jetty.
