Main parts of steel structure workshop construction
- Embedded parts, (to stabilize the structure of the plant)
- Columns generally use H-shaped steel or C-shaped steel (usually angle steel used to connect two C-shaped steel)
- For beams, generally C-shaped steel and H-shaped steel are used (the height of the middle product is determined according to the span of the beam)
- Purlin: C-shaped steel and Z-shaped steel are generally used.
- Supports and braces are usually round steel.
- There are two types of tiles, the first is a color steel tile. The second type is composite sandwich board. (Polyurethane or rock wool is sandwiched between the two-layer color-coated board, which plays the role of warming in winter and cooling in summer, and also has the effect of sound insulation and fire prevention).
type of steel workshop frame
There are many types of steel structure frames, such as portal steel frames, frame steel frames, and grid steel frames. K-HOME mainly provides portal steel structure frame types. According to the structural form, these frames can be divided into single-span, double-span, multi-span, and with eaves, with adjoining roofs, and other forms.
Single-Span Steel Structure Workshop
The single-span steel structure workshop adopts a clear span design. A large open space can be achieved without internal columns or supports in the middle of the entire plant. This design provides flexibility for indoor layout. The clear span width is generally 6-24 meters, and more than 30 meters is a large-span steel structure. Single-span workshops are generally used for production lines, warehouses, and large manufacturing processes.

Multi-Span Steel Structure Workshop
A multi-span steel structure workshop refers to a building with multiple spans or sections, each of which is supported by columns or walls. This design ensures the integrity and stability of the structure while allowing flexible changes in roof height and layout within the workshop. Multi-bay factories are suitable for complex manufacturing processes, assembly lines, and facilities that require space to be divided into different operating areas.

Five Points Should Be Paid Attention To In The Design of Steel Structure Workshop:
1. Thermal Insulation and Fire Prevention of Steel
Steel has high thermal conductivity, and its thermal conductivity is 50w (m.℃), so when the ambient temperature of the steel structure reaches above 150℃, it must be designed for heat insulation and fire protection.
2. Roof Support System and Roof Design
The layout of the roof support system should be determined according to the plant span, height, column network layout, roof structure form, crane tonnage, and seismic fortification intensity of the area. Regardless of whether there is a purlin system or a roof without a purlin system, the upper string lateral support shall be provided on the roof truss upper string and the skylight frame upper string. For workshops with roof truss spacing not less than 12m, where there are super-heavy bridge cranes in the workshops, or where there is large vibration equipment in the workshops, longitudinal horizontal supports should be installed.
At present, there are two commonly used steel structure roofing methods on the market: ① Rigid roof: double-layer color profiled steel plate with insulation cotton; ② Composite flexible roof: composed of roof color steel plate inner panel, gas barrier layer, insulation layer, coil Material waterproof layer.
3. Setting of Temperature Expansion Joint
The temperature change will cause the deformation of the steel structure factory building, which will cause the structure to produce temperature stress. When the plane scale of the factory building is large, in order to avoid large temperature stress, temperature expansion joints should be set in the vertical and horizontal directions of the factory building. The length of the section can be According to the steel structure specification.
4. Anti-rust Treatment
The surface of the steel structure will corrode when exposed directly to the atmosphere. Corresponding countermeasures and measures should be taken in general layout, process layout, material selection, etc. according to the corrosive medium and environmental conditions of the plant to ensure the safety of the plant structure. Generally, anti-corrosion primers and topcoats are often used for the anticorrosion of steel structures, and the number and thickness of coating layers are often determined according to their use environment and coating properties.
5. Facade Design
The facade of the steel structure factory building is mainly determined by the process layout. Under the requirements of the process, the facade is concise and magnificent, while the nodes are as simple and unified as possible. Jumping colors and cool colors are often used in the design of light steel factory buildings, focusing on the main entrances and exits, outer gutters, and side flooding, which not only reflects the magnificence of modern factories but also enriches the facade effect.
In short, the design of steel structure factory buildings should be designed according to their characteristics. The building structure should be designed according to its characteristics so that the design is safe, reliable, economical, reasonable, and beautiful.
How Does a Steel Structure Work?
There are five main types of structural members that make up a steel frame – tension members, compression members, bending members, composite members and their connections.
The steel components are assembled into frames on site. The processes involve lifting and placing the components and then joining them together. Usually this is done by bolting, but sometimes on-site welding is used.
Anchor bolt retest → steel component unloading → component entry inspection → car crane directly hoisted in place → anchor bolts are temporarily tightened → cable wind rope is temporarily tightened and stabilized → steel column axis position and verticality adjustment → steel column bolts and Column foot pressing plate tightening and welding → next steel column installation → steel tie rod installation → forming the first stable lattice system → steel roof truss ground assembled into a whole and two machines lifted in place to form the first steel roof truss → Symmetrical installation of columns and roof truss system on both sides, and so on. Installation is completed and the structure is checked and accepted.
Factors affecting the cost of steel structure：
- According to actual needs, every 10 cm increase in building height will increase the cost by 2% to 3%.
- Without crane tonnage, the choice of crane tonnage is also a big research topic. If the selected tonnage is too large, it will cause equipment waste, and it will not meet the construction needs if it is too small. Of course, the price is different.
- Building envelope structure, which is also a cost consideration, such as doors and windows, exterior walls, etc.
- Relevant factors such as the design structure type, construction time and purpose of the local factory.
- The size of the building area is very necessary. A large amount of steel is needed, and the cost of the steel plant is relatively high. The width determines its size, which of course is closely related to the design structure of the workshop.
- The span of the steel structure. Generally speaking, the larger the span, the lower the cost. Of course, the span is arranged according to one’s own needs, the same is true for spans of different designs, and the requirements for column spacing are also very different.
- The steel consumption and cost of the steel structure factory & workshop have a great influence on the steel consumption. In the same material, the area has a great influence on the number of steel bars, and the size of the building area determines the number of steel bars.
- The design directly determines the amount of materials used and the cost of the quotation. Therefore, the design of construction drawings and schemes must be rationalized. The main design influence is the design of basic design, steel beam design, column network design and other aspects. Designers It is necessary to consider relevant factors to rationalize the design and quotation of the entire structure.
