Steel Structure

  Steel structure platforms in buildings primarily consist of decking, main beams, and secondary beams. The decking or floor slabs rest on secondary beams, which are placed on main beams, and the main beams are connected to columns or directly supported by load-bearing walls. Steel structure platforms have a wide range of applications, primarily used in industrial production to support platforms, walkway platforms, maintenance platforms, operating platforms, and other platform structures. With the continuous development of steel structures, their applications in multi-story parking garages and civil buildings are also increasing. As an established steel structure processing factory with 10 years of experience, Yuexinsong will now discuss steel structure platforms with you.

  When fabricating steel structure platforms, an important aspect is material selection. Steel structure platforms are favored largely due to their excellent performance. The performance of steel structures is inseparable from the materials chosen; only high-quality materials that meet specifications can ensure their effectiveness. So, how should materials be selected for platform steel structures?

Steel Structure

  1.Material Selection Based on Purpose

  Different materials should be selected based on the various purposes of steel structures. For example, important structures such as large-span roof trusses for civil use and crane beams for heavy-duty operations should utilize high-quality steel.

  2.Material Selection Based on Load Nature

  For steel structure platforms with different load-bearing capacities, different materials should be selected.

  3.Material Selection Based on Weldability

  During welding, welding stress, welding deformation, and welding defects are inevitable. Therefore, steel with lower carbon, sulfur, and phosphorus content, and better plasticity, toughness, and weldability should be chosen.

  4.Material Selection Based on Service Environment

  Different environments, geographical conditions, and temperatures require selecting materials suitable for the specific service environment.
