EDRC provides a broad spectrum of Engineering, Design and Consultancy services, ranging from concept to commissioning of all types of projects: Buildings and Housing, Sports Complexes, Bio-tech Parks, Exhibition Centers, Cement Plants and Factories, Airports, Hydro Power Plants, Nuclear Power Plants, Infrastructure, Hydrocarbon, Power, Water and Effluent Treatment Plants, Water Supply Schemes, Metallurgical and Industrial Projects, Bulk Material Handling, Industrial Electrical Systems and Sub-stations, Telecommunication, Control and Instrumentation Projects and High Voltage Transmission lines.

For all these projects, EDRC provides engineering services, viz., feasibility studies, project reports and due diligence reports; system engineering, including process and instrumentation diagrams (PID); architectural, structural and civil design; procurement engineering; detailed engineering with bill of quantities (BOQ); building services; mechanical system engineering; electrical and instrumentation engineering; geo-technical engineering; hydraulic engineering; erection and commissioning supervision; inspection and quality assurance supports.

EDRC offers designs for certain specialized and complicated structures like high-rise buildings, long-span bridges, large storage silos, prill towers, RCC pylons, system housing, tall chimneys, natural and induced draft cooling towers, erection schemes for heavy lifts and all types of geo-technical engineering solutions.

EDRC’s pioneering work includes large-span pre-cast, pre-stressed concrete structures, high rise structures, natural and induced draft cooling towers, effluent and water treatment plants, public buildings and system housing including IT parks, hotels, hospitals, stadiums, airports...

EDRC is ISO 9001:2000 certified for all its operations by Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance (LRQA).

Resources

EDRC, (Chennai, Bangalore, Mumbai, Kolkata & Middle East) has over 600 experienced design engineers/technical personnel employed in various engineering disciplines. Fast and accurate solutions are provided through advanced automation facilities. A network of computers with Windows NT/2000 operating system helps in sharing of resources.

EDRC makes use of engineering software like NASTRAN, NISA, SAP 2000, I-DEAS, STAAD PRO, STRAP, ETABS, GRSTRUDL, PDMS, REVIEW REALITY, PLS-CADD, STRUCAD, MICROSTATION, AUTOCAD 2005, LAND DEVELOPMENT DESKTOP, 3D STUDIO MAX, VISUAL MODFLOW, FLOW MASTER, CAEPIPE, CEASER II, ETAP, TALREN, BENTLEY ARCHITECTURE REVIT, WATERCAD, SEWER CAD, etc.

In addition, a variety of structural design software has been developed in-house for regular application.

Research & Development

As part of its R&D efforts, EDRC constantly upgrades its knowledge and expertise in construction technology and complements the operations of ECC. In addition, it has full-fledged laboratories with facilities for concrete and soil testing including asphalt technology at its campus in Chennai.
