CNCI - Canales Nuclear & Civil Infrastrusture
EXPERTISE
Nuclear Civil, Structural & Seismic Engineering
CNCI provides civil, structural and seismic design and analysis for safety-classified reinforced-concrete and steel structures in nuclear and accelerator facilities, from concept development through detailed design and assessment.
Assignments are tailored to the safety classification, structural function and applicable regulatory and project-specific design basis.
Typical scope
Seismic analysis
Soil–structure interaction
Floor response spectra
Structural dynamics
Heavy shielding structures
Machine and turbine foundations
Impact and extreme-load assessment
Codes & standards
Eurocodes (EN 1990–EN 1998) with national annexes, AFCEN RCC-CW, ACI 349, ASME BPVC Section III Division 2 (ACI 359), ANSI/AISC N690 (including steel-plate composite walls), ASCE/SEI 4 and ASCE/SEI 43, KTA 2201, DIN 25449, and EN 15129 / EN 1337-3 for seismically isolated structures.
Typical deliverables
Design bases
Calculation notes
FE models
Load-combination reports
Structural design reports
Licensing-support documentation
Owner's Engineer & Independent Technical Review
ACNCI provides owner-side engineering and independent technical review to help clients define requirements, challenge design decisions and accept vendor and contractor deliverables on a technically informed basis.
Support can extend from site screening and FEED through design development, licensing interfaces and project implementation.

Typical scope
Site screening and selection
FEED and design requirements
Independent design review
Licensing support
Intelligent Customer capability
Quality planning and ISO 9001 / ISO 19443 readiness
Typical deliverables
Review reports
Requirement specifications
Comment-resolution records
Technical position papers
Training and technical briefings
Integrated Facility & Architectural Design
CNCI develops building and facility solutions in which architecture, structures, shielding, equipment, safety and operational requirements must be coordinated from the outset.
The focus is functional integration of technically demanding facilities rather than stand-alone architectural design.

Typical scope
Facility layouts
Building concepts
Structural and architectural coordination
Shielding integration
Equipment and maintenance interfaces
Operational and logistics studies
Typical deliverables
Layouts
Building concepts
Integration studies
Interface drawings
Coordination models
Design notes
