PKII’s
Design Center Successfully Accomplishes Four Projects
In
the first quarter of 2010, Philkoei International, Inc. (PKII) established
its so-called Design Center, which was tasked to outsource detailed
engineering design projects from overseas, and then conduct/carry out
the design and necessary work locally. Composed of highly qualified,
experienced and technically trained engineers and professionals, the
Design Center aims to provide quality and cost-efficient design according
to the client’s specifications and requirements. Since its creation,
PKII’s Design Center has successfully accomplished the following
four projects:
Erbil
International Airport Design
The project aims to produce technical drawings for operations,
logistics, administrative, and maintenance installations at Erbil
International Airport (EIAP), Iraq. It involves master plan design
and preparation of technical drawings to accommodate future Embassy
Air Iraq (EAI) requirements at the Erbil Airport to support up
to 15 rotary wing aircraft and transient fixed wing operations.
PKII’s scope of work includes the detailed architectural
and MEP (utilities, i.e., mechanical, electrical and plumbing)
design of the pre-engineered buildings, including preparation
of bill of materials. Shown below are perspective views of the
designed facilities.
Detailed
Design/Redesign of Abu Hamour Southern Outfall
Funded by the Public Works Authority of Qatar, this project aims
to produce technical drawings such as tunnel plans and profiles,
structural drawings of access shafts, reinforcement drawings of
pumping station substructure and architectural perspective of
pumping station of the Abu Hamour Southern Outfall in Doha, Qatar.
The project components consist of a 10 km long drainage tunnel
of 3.7 m internal diameter, 23 access shafts, and one pumping
station. PKII’s scope of works includes preparation of bar
schedules and reinforcement drawings of several access shafts
using software such as 3D Studio Max, AutoCAD, and AutoCAD Land
Development Desktop.

Design of WPPS Task Order 15 Phase 4 Apron Construction at Baghdad
International Airport
Funded by the United States Department of State (DoS), this project
aims to establish a new facility at the Baghdad International
Airport (BIAP) located on Sather Air Base in order to support
aviation operations of the DoS Diplomatic Security Service (DSS)
in Iraq. The design works involves the design of Class I apron/hangar
pavement for rotary wing aircraft (UH 60 Blackhawk/UH-1 Huey helicopters)
and a fixed wing aircraft hangar. PKII’s scope of works
include the design of the concrete apron covered under phase 4,
creation of associated drawings and preparation of corresponding
bills of material. The drawings provided clear definition of the
scope and scale of the project for the construction subcontractors
to use in the bidding and proposal process.
Rehabilitation
and Improvement of Maliana I Irrigation System
This project, which was funded by Japan International Cooperation
Agency (JICA), aims to initiate rehabilitation and improvement
of Maliana I Irrigation Facilities in the Democratic Republic
of Timor-Leste. Consequently, the designated main builder, TOA
Corporation, engaged the services of PKII to prepare shop drawings,
which include reinforcement arrangement and bar bending schedules
for various reinforced concrete turnouts and drop structures.
