Steel Structure Workshop

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 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.

Frequently Asked Question

1. How long does it take to build a steel structure?

Since the main product of the factory structural parts has been prefabricated in the factory, the production cycle is within 30 days, and then shipped to the site for installation. Installation time usually depends on the size of your factory and the workers required.

2. Will installation services be provided?

Affected by the epidemic, the company is temporarily unable to dispatch engineers to guide the installation work. However, we will provide detailed installation drawings and 3D structure drawings for reference before the goods arrive at the destination. At the same time, we will also provide online support.

3. Can the steel structure be relocated a second time?

The modularity, prefabrication, and lightweight characteristics of our structures ensure they are durable but easy to relocate. The structure can be disassembled and reassembled on a new site without complications.

4. Do you provide designs?

Our company has more than ten years of professional structural engineers and designers, who can comprehensively consider your needs and the environment of the area, and perform strict one-to-one calculations for each component. Ensure that each design is on a safe basis and save your costs.

5. Is your building custom-made?

Our control over all aspects of the building ensures that we can customize the structure to meet your needs and wishes. Therefore, we can customize all aspects, including model, design, and manufacturing; therefore, our high-quality steel structure is customizable.
