Commercial Steel Structure Building Metal Frame Steel Frame Office Construction

Primary Steel Structure

• Main frame components, such as steel columns and steel beams, are manufactured from hot-dip galvanized hot-rolled H-sections and welded sections. These members are bolted together on site. A factory-applied galvanization finish provides enhanced rust and corrosion protection for all primary framing elements.

Secondary Framing

• The secondary framing system consists of galvanized purlins, tie rods, and roof and wall bracing.

Bracing System

• Round steel sections are used for knee bracing and other necessary supports within the portal frame, improving the overall stability and durability of the building structure.

Cladding System

• The roof and walls are clad with color-coated corrugated steel sheets, hot-dip coated with a zinc-aluminum alloy. Fixed to the exterior of the structure, the cladding provides protection against harsh weather and delivers an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Key Advantages of Steel Structures

✅ High Strength & Durability
- Steel has an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, allowing for large spans and heavy loads.
- Resistant to earthquakes, winds, and extreme weather when properly designed.

✅ Faster Construction
- Prefabricated components enable quick assembly, reducing project timelines by 30-50%.
- Less on-site labor required compared to concrete structures.

✅ Cost-Effective
- Lower foundation costs due to lightweight nature.
- Reduced construction time = **lower labor & financing costs**.

✅ Design Flexibility
- Allows long spans (100+ meters) without columns, ideal for open spaces.
- Can be easily expanded or modified in the future.

✅ Eco-Friendly & Sustainable
- Steel is 100% recyclable, reducing construction waste.
- Energy-efficient designs can incorporate solar panels and insulation.

✅ Low Maintenance
- Galvanized or painted steel resists corrosion and rust.
- No termite or mold damage, unlike wood structures.

What info is needed for a custom building?

To design and build a custom steel structure, you typically need to provide:

1. Intended Use: What will the building be used for? (Warehouse, office, factory, etc.)
2. Size & Dimensions: Desired length, width, height (eave height & peak height).
3. Location: Site address and conditions (soil type, wind speed, snow load, seismic zone - critical for design).
4. Layout Requirements: Where do you need doors, windows, cranes, mezzanines, offices, columns (if any specific placement needed)?
5. Load Requirements: What weights will the floors/roof need to support? (Storage, equipment, vehicles, people, potential cranes).
6. Cladding Preferences: Type of wall and roof covering (metal panels, brick, etc.), insulation needs.
7. Foundation: Any existing foundation, or will a new one be built? (Impacts design).
8. Budget & Timeline: Rough estimates help guide the design and feasibility.
9. Special Requirements: Cranes, ventilation systems, specific clearances, fire rating needs, aesthetic preferences.
