Sliding Door Corner Tube Q235b Steel Structure Workshop

Types of steel workshop buildings

Heavy steel structure

The heavy-duty steel structure has high strength, reliability and durability, and is an ideal choice for the construction of heavy machinery workshops. The steel workshop can be of different sizes to meet your production needs.

Light steel structure

Light steel structure is more economical for erecting industrial buildings. Structural steel usually has a small cross-sectional size, which can effectively use the building space and reduce the height of the facility. The structure has good rigidity, light weight and very easy to transport.

In addition, structural steel can also create single span, double span or multiple spans for your workshop.

Steel Structure Component

Primary components: steel columns, steel beams, wind-resistant columns, runway beams.

• Steel columns: H-shaped steel column of equal section can be applied when the horizontal span of the facility does not exceed 15m and the column height does not exceed 6m. Otherwise, the variable section should be used.

• Steel beams: generally C-shaped or H-shaped steel is used. The main material can be Q235B or Q345B.

• Wind-resistant column: it is a structural component at the gable, mainly used to transmit the wind load.

• Runway beams: this component is used to support the rail track onto which the crane runs. It is designed according to your lifting requirements.

Secondary components: purlins (C-shaped, Z-shaped), purlin brace, bracing system (horizontal bracing, vertical bracing)

• Purlins: C-shaped or Z-shaped purlins can be used to support the wall and roof panels. The thickness of C-shaped steel can be 2.5mm or 3mm. Z-shaped steel is especially suitable for large slope roofs, and the material is Q235B.

• Purlin brace: it is used to keep the lateral stability of the purlin, increase the lateral stiffness as well.

• Bracing system: the horizontal and vertical bracing systems are intended to ensure the overall stability of the structure.

Building envelop: color steel tile, sandwich panel

• Color steel tile: it is suitable for roofing, wall surface, interior and exterior wall decoration of various industrial factories. The thickness can be 0.8mm or less. Typically we use 0.5mm color-coated steel plate for your workshop.

• Sandwich panel: the thickness can be 50mm, 75mm, 100mm or 150mm. It features easy installation, light weight and environmental protection.

• A combination of single layer color steel plate, insulation cotton and steel mesh: this method is intended to strengthen the insulation.

• Lighting panels are generally added to the roof in order to save energy and improve indoor lighting. Clerestory can be designed at the ridge to enhance indoor ventilation.

Main Parameters of Single-storey Steel Structure Building

• Length: depending on your requirements

• Column spacing: 6m, 7.5m, 9m, 12m, etc.

• Span: 9-36m (take a multiple of 3). Single span, double span and multi span are available.

• Height: 4.5-9m (without installing an overhead crane inside the facility), or depending on your crane specifications.

• Wall and roof insulation: available
