Why are more and more factories built with steel structures?
The steel structure system has the comprehensive advantages of light weight, factory manufacturing, fast installation, short construction period, good seismic performance, fast investment recovery, and less environmental pollution. Compared with reinforced concrete structures, it is more “tall, large, and light” Unique advantages of development in three aspects. Across the world, especially in developed countries and regions, steel structure construction has been reasonably and widely used in the field of construction engineering. The steel structure industry is usually divided into five sub-categories: light steel structure, high-rise steel structure, residential steel structure, space steel structure and bridge steel structure.
Characteristics of steel structures
- The material has high strength and light weight. Steel has high strength and high elastic modulus. Compared with concrete and wood, the ratio of its density to yield strength is relatively low. Therefore, under the same stress conditions, the steel structure has small component sections, light weight, easy transportation and installation, and is suitable for large spans, high heights, and load-bearing Heavy structure.
- Steel has toughness, good plasticity, uniform material, and high structural reliability.
- The steel structure manufacturing and installation is highly mechanized.
- The steel structures have good sealing performance.
- The steel structure is heat-resistant but not fire-resistant.
- The steel structure has poor corrosion resistance.
- Low carbon, energy saving, green and environmentally friendly, and reusable.
- The basic cost is reduced and the construction speed is relatively fast. It can be completed and put into operation as soon as possible, and the comprehensive economic benefits are much better than those of concrete structure buildings.
Industrial production plants are under construction all over the world, and steel structure factory has the characteristics of beautiful appearance, diverse building shapes, bright colors, relatively high degree of factory production of steel components, low cost, short construction period, easy installation and construction, and flat layout flexible. Steel has the advantages of light weight, easy design and calculation, and recyclability, making steel structures widely used in modern industrial plants.
Later care and maintenance
1. Sand blasting and rust removal. It uses compressed air pressure to continuously use quartz sand or iron sand to remove rust on the surface of the steel structures, clean away all oil stains and impurities, and only reveal the original color.
2. If it is manual rust removal, choose some rust removal tools, such as emery cloth, wire brush, knife and other tools, to clean the rust.
3. To use pickling to remove rust, the steel structure needs to be soaked in an acid pool. If the steel becomes rusty, its service life will be shortened. The pickling cleaning method can remove it better. Remember to wash it with clean water after pickling.
