Commerical, Government & Other Markets
The commercial and government sectors offer a wide range of engineering challenges including research projects, assessments and audits of existing infrastructure. Governments through the federal, state and local tiers offer a vast array of project opportunities, from Defence and Main Roads through to the waste management and water treatment facilities of local governments.
Power generation, power distribution and building developments are typical commercial projects where Orana Engineering has provided engineering services.
Orana Engineering has the expertise and flexibility to support government and commercial operations with mechanical, electrical, structural and control systems engineering services. For government and commercial operations, we have been involved in research projects, lightning audits, structural assessments and commercial electrical designs.

Culgoa Weir Gates
Orana Engineering was contacted by Sunwater to design a frame capable of supporting two hydraulic over-shot gates to be installed on the existing Culgoa Weir structure. The purpose of the gates was to allow water flow downstream when open. Hydraulics were to be driven via a power pack on the back of a utility vehicle.
Orana Engineering undertook mechanical design of the gate frame including reviews of weir flow calculations and load scenarios. Structural design aspects involved calculations, selection of member sizes, bolting details and connections as well as modelling of the frame in SpaceGASS with applied load cases and AS4100 analysis.
Orana Engineering designers produced a 3D model of the frame and gate arrangements and drawings suitable for handover to a fabricator for installation.
