Hamilton By Design

Port Engineering and 3D Laser Scanning for Complex Brownfield Assets Ports are among Australia’s most demanding industrial environments. Wharves, ship-loading systems, conveyors, cranes, transfer stations, structural steel, pipework and maintenance-access systems must operate reliably within restricted work areas, corrosive marine conditions and tightly controlled shutdown periods. When these assets need to be modified, replaced or upgraded, engineering teams require more than historical drawings and manually recorded dimensions. They need accurate information about what is actually installed. Hamilton By Design provides engineering-led 3D laser scanning, LiDAR reality capture, Scan-to-CAD modelling and mechanical engineering support for port and marine infrastructure projects. Our recently published article on Mechanical Engineering for the Port of Newcastle explains how these capabilities can be combined to support safer planning, more accurate engineering and better project outcom...
