Job description

Surat City, India | Posted on 07/31/2026

Elegrow Technology is an engineering Service organization that provides design, system studies & simulation, and technical services in Electrical, Mechanical, Civil, Instrumentation & Process domains. With 20+ years of excellence serving across the sectors backed by effective techniques and a competent engineering team. As engineers, we thrive on the constant process of learning and improving, and we pride ourselves on bringing excellent results to our customers.

Job Description

Substation and Switchyard Structural Design

• Prepare structural design drawings for substation andswitchyard equipment support structures — gantry frames, A-frames, equipmentpedestals, bus-support structures, and lightning mast foundations at 11 kV, 33kV, 66 kV, and 132 kV voltage levels
• Develop substation and switchyard structural layoutdrawings — equipment foundation positions, cable trench routing, cable ductbanks, and control building structural layout
• Carry out structural analysis using STAAD Pro forgantry structures, equipment supports, cable trench walls, duct banks, andcontrol building frames — gravity loads, wind loads, seismic loads, andequipment dynamic loads
• Prepare column, beam, footing, and slab designcalculations for substation control buildings and pump house structures as perIS 456 and IS 800
• Design and detail structural steel elements — gantrycolumns, rafters, bracing, and bolted connections as per IS 800 and IS 875
• Prepare reinforced concrete design calculations forequipment foundations, cable trenches, transformer plinth, circuit breakerfoundations, and cable duct banks as per IS 456 and IS 1893

3D Modelling and Structural Detailing (Tekla Structures)

• Build 3D structural models of substation gantrystructures, control buildings, equipment support frames, and cable trenchsystems in Tekla Structures
• Produce fabrication-level structural steel shopdrawings — general arrangement (GA) drawings, part drawings, connectiondetails, bolt schedules, and weld schedules from the Tekla model
• Generate bar bending schedules (BBS) and reinforcementdetailing drawings for all RCC elements directly from the Tekla model
• Coordinate structural model with electrical equipmentlayout received from the Electrical Design team — verify clearances, foundationpositions, and cable trench alignments
• Manage model revisions in Tekla; issue IFC-leveldrawings from the model following ETPL drawing revision control standards

Foundation and Geotechnical Coordination

• Prepare equipment foundation designs for transformers,circuit breakers, disconnectors, CTs, VTs, surge arresters, and controlbuildings — sizing, reinforcement, and anchor bolt design
• Interpret soil investigation reports (SIR) — safebearing capacity, subgrade modulus, liquefaction potential — and applygeotechnical inputs to foundation designs
• Coordinate with geotechnical consultant or client forSIR data; raise RFIs for missing geotechnical information through the LeadEngineer
• Prepare pile design inputs where shallow foundationsare not feasible; coordinate pile layout drawings with geotechnical design

Transmission Line Tower — Structural Scope

• Prepare tower foundation design drawings andcalculations for transmission line towers — pad-and-chimney foundations, wellfoundations, and rock anchor foundations per IS 4091 and CBIP Manual onTransmission Lines
• Assist in tower body geometry drawings and towerschedule preparation in coordination with the Lead Structural Engineer
• Carry out wind load calculations on tower structuresper IS 875 Part 3 and transmission line design standards

Civil Coordination and Drainage

• Prepare site grading and drainage layout drawings forsubstation area — finished floor levels, storm water drainage channels, andslope grading
• Coordinate with the electrical team for cable routedrawings and cable trench cross-sections; produce civil sections for trenchconstruction
• Prepare road layout and hardstanding area design forsubstation premises — road widths, turning radii, transformer rolling path, andcable bridge design
