Sardar Sarovar Dam Installation
Site-Specific Challenges and Installation Process
The installation was carried out in 2006, adhering to the high wind load and structural requirements for the coastal environment. The poles were placed on the sea shore and jetty area, where high wind pressures are frequent.
Performance Under Cyclone Conditions
In 2014, Vizag experienced a cyclone with wind speeds of 250 km/h. The GRP poles supplied by Sumip Composites faced vertical pressure equivalent to 100 kg, replicating the impact of the high wind speeds. Despite the cyclone’s force, which caused significant damage to most of the structures installed in the outer periphery of SALPG, Sumip’s GRP poles remained intact and fully functional.
Coastal Area Installation
Project Overview
In 2006, Sumip Composites was tasked with supplying 9-meter GRP anchor-type poles with single and double side arms for installation at the SALPG (South Asia LPG Company) facility in Vizag. The project had specific technical requirements due to the location’s high susceptibility to cyclones. The poles were required to withstand wind speeds of up to 250 km/h and maintain a minimum glass content of 65%. The installation site was directly on the sea shore/jetty area, making the design even more challenging due to high wind pressures.

Critical Specifications and Design Needs
1. High Wind Load Capacity: The poles were designed to withstand wind speeds of 250 km/h due to the cyclone-prone environment in Vizag.
2. Minimum Glass Content: The poles were manufactured with a minimum of 65% glass content to ensure strength and resilience against environmental pressures.
3. Installation Location: The poles were installed at the SALPG site, a coastal region with extreme weather conditions.
Verification of Performance and Technical Findings
The GRP poles manufactured by Sumip Composites using CNC Filament Wound Technology performed as expected under the extreme wind conditions. They successfully withstood the designed wind load, confirming their durability and reliability for coastal applications. A performance certificate was issued after the cyclone, validating the poles' successful operation and adherence to the design parameters.
Final Observations and Long-Term Durability
This case study demonstrates the effectiveness of Sumip Composites’ GRP poles in extreme weather conditions, especially in coastal areas prone to cyclones. The project in Vizag has proven that these poles can endure high wind loads, ensuring long-term reliability and structural integrity.
