NEED FOR AN ALTERNATIVE APPROACHFBS Benefits
CREW MANAGEMENT• No need to manage multiple
crews at once• Substation arrives
ready to bolt into place
CREW SAFETY• Reduce risks of accidents• More controlled environment
COST SAVINGS• Little to assemble in field• Less billable hours for field
crews
TIME SAVINGS• Quick erection phase• More completed projects year-to-
year
CONSTRUCTIONQUALITY
• Marshaled materials• Welding completed
in indoor environment• Built to withstand rigors
of transportation

CONSTRUCTION & ASSEMBLY Factory-Built: 1.29.16 – 2.9.2016
Rail SystemSystem used to temporarily mount substation on to the factory floor to
hold base plates and columns during construction.
Support SteelDesigned and used to keep partial assemblies stabilized. Steel supports in place throughout the factory-built construction phase.

5 Day DelayProblem with switches provided
by switch manufacturer.
Factory Construction Completed in 10 Days
FBS Shipment & DeliveryTook 1 day to ship & 3 hours to unload.
FBS Shipment: 2.10.16 – 2.11.16

1 Month Assembly DelaySite issues prohibited TNMP from beginning foundation work during
the design phase of project.
TNMP Installed Without Question or Problems“I had never seen anything like that before. We always have had to do everything on the job site. But it was perfect.” – Joe Sandifer, Safety Inspector for TechServ

Time SavingsProject timeline comparison of FBS vs. stick built substation
& review of ideal parallel construction process.
Cost SavingsBased on Time Savings
Assessment, the elimination of material shortages & the
eradication of alignment issues & weather delays.

• Center of Gravity needed for each shipment, not entire substation
• Factor factory door’s clearance
PRE-PLAN ANEXIT STRATEGY
In the future…
![Page 24: Factory built substation case study](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062316/58b8a54e1a28abc06d8b5d51/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
“THE LOWER,THE BETTER”
• Low boy trucks instead of step decks
• Same trucks mean same shipping route
In the future…
