Product Description
A steel structure industrial building, also known as a space frame workshop, is a prefabricated high-strength construction ideal for manufacturing, warehouses, and logistics centers. These structures offer a lightweight yet durable steel framework, rapid construction, and high adaptability.
Structural System
- Primary Frame: Columns and beams made from hot-rolled or welded H-sections (Q355B/ASTM A572 Gr.50).
- Secondary Components: Cold-formed C/Z-section purlins and girts with galvanized coating.
- Bracing: Horizontal and vertical systems (X-type or K-type) for seismic and wind resistance.
- Crane Support: Built-in beams for overhead cranes (5t~50t capacity).
Building Envelope
- Roofing: Options include PU/Rockwool sandwich panels or Galvalume corrugated sheets.
- Wall Cladding: Single skin or insulated panels with roll-up or sliding doors.
Technical Considerations
- Load Capacity: Designed for live loads (0.5 kN/m² roof) and specific wind/snow requirements.
- Protection: 80μm galvanizing and epoxy primer for corrosion; 1-2 hours fire rating with intumescent paint.
- Systems: Natural ridge ventilators, LED high bay lighting, and integrated fire safety sprinklers.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What materials are used for the main structural frame?
The primary load-bearing structure is typically fabricated from hot-rolled or welded H-sections using high-strength Q355B steel, equivalent to ASTM A572 Gr.50.
Q2: How does the building handle fire safety?
Our structures are designed with a Level 2 fire rating. Columns and beams are coated with approximately 2.0mm of intumescent paint to provide 1 to 2 hours of fire resistance.
Q3: Can these industrial buildings support heavy machinery like cranes?
Yes, the structural design includes crane runway beams that can support overhead cranes with capacities ranging from 5 tons to 50 tons.
Q4: What are the advantages of a steel space frame over traditional concrete?
Steel workshops offer 30-50% faster construction times, a higher strength-to-weight ratio, customizable spans, and are more eco-friendly as the steel is recyclable.
Q5: How is corrosion prevented in harsh industrial environments?
Secondary members undergo an 80μm galvanizing process, while the main frame is treated with epoxy primer and a polyurethane topcoat for maximum durability.
Q6: What types of roofing and wall systems are available?
We offer insulated sandwich panels (PU or Rockwool cores) for temperature control, or cost-effective corrugated Galvalume sheets for basic storage needs.
