6. “A beautiful design and definitely not science fiction. It was Iv-Consult’s task to transform the dream of
architect David Fisher into a practical concept. An example of dynamic architecture. The objective of
this tower is that with ‘the flick of switch’ you can change the shape of the building and constantly
change the view. The effect is astonishing, because the skyline of the town is continuously changing.”
Jaco van der Schans, Mechanical Engineer, Iv-Consult

13. Combining
strengths
gives you added value
When thinking of Onshore handling equipment we think about cranes, stacker reclaimers,
conveyer-belts, ship transport installations and other installations for transport and trans-
shipment, both for break bulk and bulk cargos.
All these installations have to have a high reliability and availability. In order to create a reliable, safe
and cost efficient solution, we aim for a design with a strong integration of the main structure, the
driving mechanism and the control systems. The electronic and hydraulic mechanisms are therefore a
fundamental part of the installation.
We offer support for all phases from the design to the realisation process: you may involve us from the
early plan creating process, but also for the execution documents.
If your project involves large, complex or special installations, we are the right partner for you.

15. Onshore Handling Equipment
The new generation of super heavy lift cranes
from Mammoet is about 235 metres high. The
cranes have a lifting capacity of 3200 tons and
a maximum radius of more than
200 metres. Thanks to Iv-Consult’s experience
in crane structures we were appointed as
partner for the engineering of the cranes.
16. “Damen Shipyards Sharjah FZE, a new shipyard in the Hamriyah Free Zone of the Emirate of Sharjah, selected
Iv-Consult for the design of the logistic layout and detailed design including tendering procedure for the award
of the construction contract.
The new shipyard is constructed on a 284,000 m2
plot of land with 1.2 km deep water wet berths and involves
one shiplift with a lifting capacity of 5200 ton. Eight dry-berths will be provided in the initial stage of which two
will be covered for new ship building activities and enclose latest ‘state of the art’ blasting and painting
facilities.
This project required advanced engineering specialists having that rare combination of skills in so many fields
like structural steel, concrete and mechanical engineering to meet our firm’s stringent specifications.
The Iv-Consult team as a result of their professionalism and reliability has contributed to the success of our
project.”
Hennie den Toom, Managing Director, Damen Shipyards Sharjah FZE
17. As the client you know your own processes better than anyone else. How do the processes fit if
you build a new port or plan a new lay-out for your yard or you want an optimalisation of your
current situation? You have to weigh up many choices. How do you arrange the logistics at
your location in the most efficient way? What should be in the master plan? What facilities are
required? How do you get a civil, structural and electrotechnical design? What do you have to
take into account when you request a building permit?
For the layout of bulk terminals, container terminals and shipyards, Iv-Consult is the right partner for
you. You can also rely on us for any other kind of yard. Together with your knowledge of your process
we define the optimum, after which we take your worries into our hands. Through our logistics

Added value is of importance to us. We incorporate client´s requirements at an early stage, together
with an outlook to fabrication and assembly where possible. Our range of services covers the full
spectrum, from concept studies to detailed design. We also provide erection, transport, handling and
fabrication engineering, which form a unique and valuable combination of services.
Because we work worldwide we have knowledge of the latest international codes and regulations for
both onshore and offshore structures. We are also used to dealing with and design for special loads
such as fatigue, earthquake and heavy equipment induced loadings.
It is our goal to provide you with the best possible professional and suitable package of services.
20. “For many years now Iv-Consult has prepared the structural shop drawings for numerous Heerema
Zwijndrecht projects.
Iv-Consult has always proved to be a very reliable and flexible partner with high standards regarding
quality!”
Ad van den Berge, Manager Fabrication Engineering, Heerema Fabrication Group
21. The detailing of steel structures is a discipline in itself. We design, calculate and draw the most
efficient connections for you. They are practical and makeable and are easy to assemble at the
same time.
We have an eye for detail whether it is regarding shop drawings for steel, mechanical or for civil
structures including detail engineering. We use drafting tools like 3D Tekla to assure the drawings are
correct and connections are used to the optimum.
Fast and accurate, is that possible? Yes, it is, because Iv-Consult has a large number of specialised staff
in the Netherlands and Malaysia that can directly get to work with your project under the supervision
of a Dutch management. Therefore, we deliver high quality shop drawings at low costs.

22. “Petrocom Energy Limited needed the most advanced engineering specialists to design a set of highly
complex Coal Blending Facilities. Only Iv-Consult had that rare combination of skills in so many fields
like structural steel, concrete and mechanical engineering to meet our firm’s stringent specifications.
Throughout our relationship, the Iv-Consult team has exhibited unfailing professionalism and
reliability qualities that were essential in turning our business idea into reality.”
Howard Au, Managing Director, Petrocom Energy Limited
23. Civil Structures
Build upon our knowledge
Industrial foundations, crane ways, shipyards, storage and trans-shipment yards or water
treatment installations. These are examples of civil engineering projects where concrete has
played an important role. Iv-Consult enters into the total context of your project and if
required from the beginning till the end.
We take the integration of moving and static structures on the foundation into account in our projects.
The integration of these disciplines make Iv-Consult a unique player. We have the required knowledge
of geotechnics and concrete structures. The overall knowledge of our specialists provides you with
well thought out and planned structures.
24. Seismic analysis
In areas where earthquakes occur, it is of great importance to take these forces into account when
calculating the structure. A seismic analysis is a requirement for the new lock gates for the Panama
Canal. After all the canal lies on an earthquake fault and the gates must not collapse under any
circumstances. Iv-Consult has worked with a full team to deal with this challenging project and
incorporated their seismic analyses in the design.
Dynamics
Comfort and safety play an important role in structures. For example the London Eye
has to be as light and flexible as possible, but also take into account the sensitivity of
the dynamic effects of the structure. Iv-Consult integrates the dynamic analysis results
in a perfect design. In the London Eye there are special dampers that adequately do
their work, so it always remains a pleasant ride under all circumstances.
25. Reliable advice with
specialistic knowledge
Logistics
A large site offers lots of logistic configurations, but what is the best solution? How do you achieve an
effective workflow on your yard? Logistic challenges that need technical insight and a pragmatic
approach. Iv-Consult offers you the maximum achievable for a realistic price.
Fatigue
Recurring loads have an effect on structures. Over time these structures experience fatigue. Platforms
at sea experience forces from waves and cranes that are continually being used have to remain
structurally sound. When a structure is cyclicly loaded it can not be ignored that at a certain moment
in time there is a risk of fatique related problems. Iv-Consult analyses these risks and integrates the
outcome in the designs and maintenance manuals. This requires the use of advanced calculation
techniques, the application of organic forms and creative solutions that limit the effects of fatigue.
26. Iv-Consult combines a high level of knowledge,
professionalism, modern techniques and
required capacity with a long lasting customer
relationship.
