Most Important Things to Remember in Structural Steel Fabrication
December 5th, 2017In structural steel fabrication, what’s most important? Is it a matter of practicality? The right gauge of steel matches some architecturally shaped line, so the metal won’t fold or collapse. Perhaps it’s the safety factor? Steel projects discharge masses of sharp-edged metal swarf, plus an accompanying shower of hot chips. Protective barriers are a must, […]
Most Common Types of Steel Used in Building Construction
November 14th, 2017Mild steels aren’t always right for this role, not if the soft alloy can’t support a structural load. How about rigid carbon steels? Well, we can’t automatically assume this type of steel is right for the job, not if that material is rigid. A strong wind blows, then the structure sways, and the rigid alloy […]
Beam Column Joints and How They Resist Earthquakes
November 3rd, 2017Earthquakes produce massive quantities of seismic energy. As waves of material-shaking power propagate, the load-bearing beams in a building are subjected to stress. Simply put, the building’s supporting metal frame is shaken apart. In particular, the beam column joints incur severe damage. Classed as critically important intersection points within a structural frame, those joints require […]

Structural Steel and Its Significance in Modern Construction
October 3rd, 2017Like the toughest, most enduring structures in the industry, we’ll be building this blog on a solid framework, a strong backbone that emulates the durable strength of structural steel. So what is it about this reinforced alloy that makes it a superior construction metal? There’s the durability factor, the high tensile strength feature that guarantees […]
