PBA DESIGN ANDPBA PROJECTS

PBA Design was established in 1996 and focused primarily on providing design and detailing services. In 2001, the company increased its scope to provide multidisciplinary engineering services, from concept to completion (PBA Projects).

Throughout the design process, PBA Design utilises up to date software packages and follows a “systems engineering” approach, providing solutions that at least match client’s objectives, but more often exceed them.

PBA Projects’ core business is the supply of all engineering services pertaining to the design and supply of mineral processing plants and equipment and it undertakes the full spectrum of engineering design pursuant to the production of the most cost effective and efficient modular processing plants.

Years of experience in the development of these plants has taken the team to the forefront of the field.

PBA Design and PBA Projects are leaders in marine modular diamond treatment and recovery plant design, as well as UHDMS plants for iron ore and similar operations and their full range of services includes:

• PROJECT MANAGEMENT – from client briefing to delivery of the final product.

• CONCEPTUAL STUDIES – investigate size and scope of the processing facility, considering life of the mine and client’s quantitative aims and objectives.

• FEASIBILITY STUDIES – building a model, which measures the level of investment against anticipated financial return.

• FRONT END ENGINEERING DESIGN (FEED) – clients’ project specific requirements reflected in the design, thus avoiding major changes during implementation.


• PROCESS ENGINEERING – modular design allows for an accelerated installation, commissioning and final handover.

• ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING – client’s production requirements interpreted and overseen, from flow diagrams and electrical fabrication, to testing and commissioning prior to delivery and installation.

• MECHANICAL ENGINEERING – flow-modelling exercises with a variety of equipment permutations, conducted with the optimum equipment specified for the purpose intended.

• STRUCTURAL, CIVIL, AND MECHANICAL DESIGN AND MODELLING – provides models used for construction, commissioning, equipment testing and development.

• CONSTRUCTION AND MANAGEMENT – optimum turnkey solutions, from pre-assembled modular structures to complete recovery deckhouses, including compliance with agreed timelines, health and safety regulations and the most stringent quality standards.

• COMMISSIONING– prior to site delivery, the primary commissioning (full erection and testing) of the full process plant takes place at the engineering workshop in Cape Town.

• EQUIPMENT TESTING AND DEVELOPMENT – testing and scale modelling confirm that clients’ chosen solutions are optimum for their projects.

PBA Projects and PBA Design’s key competencies include:• Draughting and full 3D modelling• Structural design and finite element analysis (FEA)• Mechanical systems design• Process design and flowsheet modelling• Electrical and control systems design• Overall project planning and management
