If you&#;re looking for the most cost-effective building type, it&#;s important to consider your potential long-term savings along with your initial investment in any shape of structure, let&#;s think about steel structure.

What is steel structure?

Steel structure is a metal structure which is made of structural steel* components connect with each other to carry loads and provide full rigidity. Because of the high strength grade of steel, this structure is reliable and requires less raw materials than other types of structure like concrete structure and timber structure.

In modern construction, steel structures is used for almost every type of structure including heavy industrial building, high-rise building, equipment support system, infrastructure, bridge, tower, airport terminal, heavy industrial plant, pipe rack, etc.

*Structural steel is steel construction material which fabricated with a specific shape and chemical composition to suit a project&#;s applicable specifications.

Depending on each project&#;s applicable specifications, the steel sections might have various shapes, sizes and gauges made by hot or cold rolling, others are made by welding together flat or bent plates. Common shapes include the I-beam, HSS, Channels, Angles and Plate.

Main structural types

  • Frame structures: Beams and columns
  • Grids structures: latticed structure or dome
  • Prestressed structures
  • Truss structures: Bar or truss members
  • Arch structure
  • Arch bridge
  • Beam bridge
  • Cable-stayed bridge
  • Suspension bridge
  • Truss bridge: truss members

5 reasons why steel structure is the best choice?

1. Cost savings
Steel structure is the cost leader for most projects in materials and design. It is inexpensive to manufacture and erection, requires less maintenance than other traditional building methods.

2. Creativity
Steel has a natural beauty that most architects can&#;t wait to take advantage of. Steel allows for long column-free spans and you can have a lot of natural light if you want it in any shape of structures.

3. Control and Management
Steel structures are fabricated at factory and rapidly erected at construction site by skilled personnel that makes safe construction process. Industry surveys consistently demonstrate that steel structures is the optimal solution in management.

4. Durability
It can withstand extreme forces or harsh weather conditions, such as strong winds, earthquakes, hurricanes and heavy snow. They are also unreceptive to rust and, unlike wood frames, they are not affected by termites, bugs, mildew, mold and fungi.

    An Introduction to Structural Steel

    Structural steel is used in a variety of sectors such as defence, oil and gas, mining, infrastructureand in the building and construction industries. If welded correctly it is a reliable method of construction, there are many reasons it is so widely used across the entire globe. From large-scale structures like high-rise buildings,bridges and critical mining equipment, structural steel forms the backbone of infrastructure in Australia. Read on for more from Technoweld&#;s experts.

    How do Structural Steels Differs?

    Structural steels come in many types in terms of chemistry, manufacturing process and form.

    Generally steel used for structural elements are classified into low carbon, carbon manganese, medium carbon, low alloy and quench and tempered steels. In terms of steel classified to Australian Standards they typically have a maximum carbon content of 0.47%. The type of steel, the alloying elements that make up its composition and how it gains its mechanical properties significantly effects their weldability. Often during the design phase the weldability of materials is not a top priority.

    So what differentiates structural steel are two key things, strength and toughness from chemistry or strength and toughness from its manufacturing process.

    Strength and toughness from chemistry.

    Pure iron is very soft and has limited application in engineered structures. To overcome this a number of alloying elements are added to the iron to increase its mechanical properties. Carbon is the most important element added to iron, followed by manganese.

    Carbon &#; Generally increasing the amount of carbon increases strength, toughness and hardenability but it turn it reduces weldability and ductility.

    Manganese &#; Typically is added as it strengthens the steel and further improves toughness but also reduces weldability and increases hardenability.

    Reducing weldability means increased controls are required during welding.

    Other elements are added for specific purposes like silicon as a deoxidiser, nickel to improve low temperature toughness, phosphorus to increase machinability. Other micro alloys such as chromium, vanadium, copper, aluminium are added to further improve the steel.

    How to weld these materials is significantly different than how you approach high strength low alloy, thermo mechanically controlled rolled or quench and tempered materials.

    Strength and toughness from manufacturing process.

    These materials that fit into the category of high strength low alloy, thermo mechanically controlled rolled or quench and tempered typically have higher strength that allows designers to reduce weight and reduce section size. They get their properties from how they are produced rather than just pure chemical composition.

    Generally their weldability is considered to be good to fair but if welding is not controlled properly there is a risk of significantly increasing brittleness or losing strength of the parent material during welding. This risks premature failure of the weldment. Lose of strength and an increase in brittleness is not something that can be detected by non destructive examination and confidence can only come from using a proven welding procedure specification.

    Knowing how a steel will react when it is welded based on its chemistry or manufacturing process is a critical part of ensuring the structures performance.

    Understanding why a material has been specified is important to ensure the welding consumables are selected to match the intended design.
