Steel structure workshops are highly favored for their construction speed, strength, and high ROI. However, a scientific installation process is essential to ensure a building lasts for decades. As a one-stop service provider, we have summarized this standardized installation guide for you:
1. Foundation Inspection & Anchor Bolt Setting
Installation begins with a precise foundation. Ensure the concrete strength meets requirements and that anchor bolts are positioned with millimeter-level accuracy, as they support the entire steel column framework.
2. Installation of Steel Columns & Bracing
- Hoisting: Once the column is in place, tighten the anchor bolts immediately and adjust the verticality.
- Stability: Installing inter-column bracing is crucial to provide lateral stability before the primary steel beams are lifted.
3. Main Steel Beam Assembly & Hoisting
Steel beams are typically pre-assembled on the ground to check slope and straightness. They are then connected to columns using two-point lifting. High-strength bolts must undergo initial and final tightening to ensure structural rigidity.
4. Purlins & Secondary Structure Installation
Purlins (C or Z sections) not only support the roof panels but also link the steel beams together. During this phase, sag rods and tie bars must be installed promptly to reinforce the structure.
5. Cladding System: Doors, Windows & Panels
- Panels: Install roof sheets or sandwich panels starting from the leeward side to ensure tight overlaps.
- Weatherproofing: Detailed flashing and trimming around doors and windows are vital to prevent future water leakage.
