Nowadays, taking into account technical and economic developments, metal constructions have become an integral part of the modern construction market. Metal structures successfully replace a number of building materials. Due to the use of metal structures in buildings, costs are significantly reduced, labor costs are reduced, the construction time of industrial buildings is reduced, and the efficiency of using financial resources is increased.
Currently, various types and types of structures are used in all sectors of the economy: agriculture, industrial production, transport, trade, etc. Industrial buildings and production workshops as well as metal warehouses are built of metal structures. Nowadays, metal hangars made of metal structures are also very popular. Among the objects on which metal structures are also widely used, we can mention: road and railway bridges, surface and underground pedestrian crossings, logistics and storage complexes, shopping centers, shops, checkpoints and security points. Smaller constructions made of metal can be called metal railings and metal railings, which are not considered large metal constructions.
The metal profile makes it possible to produce a wide variety of different building metal structures intended for the construction of industrial, warehouse and retail complexes, administrative buildings, technical centers, metal hangars, etc. They can be both independent nodes, which are a structural component of buildings and structures, and metal structures of auxiliary assembly. (These can be both independent nodes, which are structural components of buildings and structures, and auxiliary metal constructions).
What is metal fabrication?
And so, metal structures are building structures that are used as load-bearing structures in the framework of buildings and engineering structures, in large-scale cladding, wall and roof panel cladding.
The growing demand for these products is determined by the systematic growth of production volumes and the expansion of the market for companies specializing in the production and installation of metal structures. The main factors in choosing a manufacturing company are company history, production facilities, personnel qualifications, completed projects, cost per ton of metal structures.
Advantages of metal structures
- Transportability (transportability)
- Ease of installation and disassembly
- Less weight than reinforced concrete structures
- Simplicity and speed of production
- Convenience and speed of construction
- Reliability in operation
Design of metal constructions
Design involves the process of developing design documents for the production of metal structures. This is a very complicated and time-consuming job that only professionals can do. Companies engaged in the production and construction of large metal structures have qualified specialists for the preparation and design of metal structures.
Additionally, such companies provide a list of related services such as:
- Development of technical specifications for the design of metal structures
- Preliminary calculation of metal consumption of the building using graphics
- Design of engineering networks and communications
- Approval of the project
- Copyright control
Installation of metal constructions
Metal structures are becoming more and more developed and in demand. Compared to conventional construction, installation takes significantly less time. However, this is a very labor-intensive and specialized work that requires the involvement of highly qualified specialists. In this matter, you should contact companies that employ only a professional installation team that has undergone serious training and has been approved as a responsible contractor.
Metal construction is a complex liability product that, with many advantages, can serve today’s largest structures.
