STRUCTURAL STEEL FABRICATION
STRUCTURAL STEEL FABRICATION
Structural steel fabrication is the process of cutting, bending and shaping steel to make a product. Steel fabrication is not any type of welding in which steel is strengthened or repaired. Several pieces of steel are combined together to form different structures of predefined sizes and shapes. Not everyone is capable of fabricating structural steel. This process requires skilled and experienced technicians who can take raw components and transform them into marketable products. The heavy industrial projects require fabrication. You may also require help from structural steel fabricators at home when you want to build a staircase made of structural steel.
For Structural steel fabrication, we use machineries to weld and bend steel in order to transform it into different patterns and shapes.
The process involves:
- Cutting: This is the first part of structural steel fabrication. High-grade steel is cut by shearing or sawing or chiseling using different tools like laser cutters, plasma torches, or water jets
- Bending: Another important part of structural steel fabrication is bending the alloy. This can be done by hammering manually or with the help of machines. Whether to bend steel manually or through a machine depends on the type of project
- Assembling: This part of structural steel fabrication involves the assembling of all the molded parts to form complete structures. There are two ways of assembling steel structures. One way is welding, where the steel fabricators apply heat to the steel parts slowly to join them together. Another way of assembling is to bind the steel parts together with adhesives
- After all this is done, the structural steel fabricators should determine its shape. To shape, fabricators make use of a software package and the equipment available in the machine shop. Most fabricators make use of the cutting-edge technology to keep a track of the operation and maintain the proficiency of the entire process. Laser-cutting devices give a smooth edge. Painting and sandblasting can also be used during structural steel fabrication.
Where we use?
We use Structural steel fabrication in the construction of buildings, bridges, home appliances, and vehicle parts. Using structural steel fabrication in buildings and homes is fantastic, as it offers great durability and strength.
Qualities of Steel Fabrication
Heat resistant
Austenitic grades
Strong corrosion resistance
Better hardening rates
Higher-strength
Stronger resistance to impact.
Benefits of Structural Steel Fabrication in construction industry
Lighter buildings: Structural steel fabrication helps in reducing the weight of the building as it is a very strong material. It has a higher strength to weight ratio as compared to other materials. This makes the buildings and structures lighter and they do not require extensive and costly foundations.
Easy modification: Structural steel fabrication is easy to modify in the future for vertical expansions, new applications, and any other changes. This type of ease to modify cannot be achieved with any other construction materials. Hence, structural steel has become the best choice for engineers, architects, and contractors.
Exterior applications: The Structural steel fabricator know that it is very much essential to match the grade of stainless steel to the environment as it has a major influence on its performance. They know the method of determining environmental conditions through which they choose the grade of stainless steel which can be used for exterior applications. The exterior steel fabricated construction is able to survive in all weather conditions.
Flexible design: No matter how complex the design intent of architecture and engineering is, professional steel fabricators can easily accomplish the design with the help of structural steel. Structural steel has the ability to encourage design creativity.
Enhance aesthetic appeal: Steel has a natural beauty which the architects can expose in the design of their structures in order to emphasize slenderness, grace, transparency of frame and strength. No other construction material allows the architect to apply as many degrees of expression and creativity as structural steel does. The professional steel fabricators are also capable of bending and rolling the structural steel sections to further enhance the aesthetic appeal of the structures.
