Steel Structure in Industrial Construction 2024

Steel structure materials are increasingly becoming the preferred source of construction materials in the modern era in the world because of some preeminent and optimal features in many aspects. Let’s take a look at 5 reasons why steel structure becomes one of the top 1 building materials in 2024.

  

1. What is structural steel?

Steel structure is a link structure between metal components (steel) used to transmit and connect forces in the twentieth century and shape construction standards in the twenty-first century. Currently, steel structure materials/products are widely applied in the field of construction, especially in industrial items that need to be reinforced with a solid frame system or bear a large load.

2. Advantages of steel structure

Steel structure has been widely applied in most projects, industrial constructions from off-shore energy, factories, high-rise buildings and even civil because of the following advantages:

2.1 Compact steel structure

One of the advantages of steel structure can be mentioned first of all, the compact structure helps to shorten the construction progress: construction time, but quality assurance will save resources and costs. substantial fees.

2.2 Flexible and removable steel structure

Flexible connection, easy transportation and erection: steel structure is like lego pieces, the connection method must be flexible so that the pieces merge or disassemble are also convenient and in moving also need to be flexible. in the arrangement of the case.

2.3 Cost-effective steel structure

Can be disassembled without destruction, saving costs for reconstruction on other premises: one of the benefits of steel structures that investors as well as general contractors understand the importance of restructuring the most. construction will reduce the budget of materials, dismantling, construction when using steel structure.

2.4 Sustainable steel structure

Stable and durable over the years: the durability of the steel structure is proven through the materials and support coatings to withstand the weather and harsh environments, especially for projects. near sea, offshore port ships, drilling rigs, petrochemical at sea.

2.5 Low-cost steel structure

Reasonable cost: When compared to other materials on the market today, steel structure deserves to be voted as having the best price and many benefits for a project because it does not require many stages of production processing and equipment. complicated.

3. Steel structure application

Steel structure has evolved into a service material in industrial projects, offering a wide range of architectural designs, aesthetic satisfaction, and long-term durability. The primary forms of structures, in particular, are usually load-bearing frame systems that correlate to diverse purposes and uses in each discipline.

3.1 Frame structure:

This structure is most commonly used in factory buildings, has good load-bearing capacity and can exceed large spans of up to 100m or more. It also depends on the ability and technique to manufacture steel structures from reputable and highly specialized steel structure manufacturing units.

3.2 Grid structure:

This type of structure is shaped from connecting many bars with buttons in a certain grid pattern, has the ability to transmit forces neatly, is light in weight, has good seismic resistance and is easy to erect. Grid structures are widely applied in large-capacity and large-scale public infrastructure projects such as exhibitions, theaters, stadiums, airports.

3.3 Beam structure:

Beam is a horizontal or inclined bearing bar, which is the basic structure with the function of supporting and supporting beams, walls and roofs above. Beams are simple in structure and low in cost, so they are widely used in construction projects such as floor beams, roof beams, crane girders, bridge girders, etc.

3.4 Truss construction:

Truss is a sort of load-bearing structure in building that is made up of multiple pieces made from a steel bar framework. This structure is frequently utilized in projects with big apertures and high altitudes, such as stadiums, airports, and huge industrial warehouses, to produce large spans.

3.5 Suspension design:

The suspension structure is frequently used in the roof frame as a cable connection with steel constructions. The suspended structure’s roof frame is frequently used for big-span projects, with huge areas such as stadiums, stadiums, etc., so this structure is incredibly important and indispensable.

3.6 The arch structure:

Pre-engineered steel arch structure correctly understands that it is a modified steel structure with arch shape. The advantage of this structure is high visual stimulation, creating sympathy and connection that the investor/business wants to convey. Through the architectural language, the arch structure is often exploited for the functional part to go into community projects, environmentally friendly projects and with high artistic aesthetics.

4. DDC . steel structure

DDC steel structure is positioned in the high-quality segment, meeting key projects. Projects with large scale, complex structure, large payload requirements, sustainability and high aesthetics in the country are mostly undertaken by DDC. DDC steel structure focuses on the construction of frame systems according to the following groups of works and projects:

• Light industrial frame system: prefabricated factories, production plants, coal warehouses, showroom yards, high-rise buildings,…
• System of heavy industry – energy: off-shore works of drilling rigs, petrochemical refining, thermal power.
• Traffic infrastructure system: bridges, ports, train stations, stations
• Public infrastructure framework: airports, stadiums, exhibition halls, hospitals,…
• Industrial mechanical components: silo tanks, cooling systems, steam distribution pipes,…

DDC steel structure is gradually creating a variety of types and architectures, especially super-long and super-heavy structures serving the renewable energy industry, developing renewable energy projects (the role of a developer). ). Besides, DDC also expands infrastructure and seaport to expand production scale to meet the needs of domestic and international partners/customers.
