Introduction to Steel Structure Production Workshop

Steel structure production workshops are mainly composed of steel columns, steel beams, steel structure foundations, steel roof trusses and steel roofs, which constitute the main load-bearing structure of the workshop. The characteristics of steel structure workshops include light weight, high strength and large span, which makes them very suitable for industrial and civil construction facilities. Due to the easy availability of steel and its excellent physical properties, steel structure workshops are becoming more and more popular in modern buildings, especially in situations where rapid construction and movement are required.

Steel structure production workshop process flow

The steel structure production workshop is a factory building specializing in the production of steel structure buildings. Its production process flow mainly includes four links: raw material processing, production, assembly and quality inspection. Among them, raw material processing includes steel plate shearing, grooving, punching and other processes; the production stage is mainly completed by welding, drilling, cutting, polishing and other processes; the assembly stage is to splice each component and assemble it into a finished component; the quality inspection stage mainly includes inspections of appearance quality, dimensional accuracy, structural performance and other aspects.

Advantages of Steel Structure Production Workshop

Steel structure production workshop has the advantages of high strength stability, fast construction, environmental protection performance, flexible layout and low maintenance cost. ‌

High strength and stability: Steel structure workshop is an ideal choice for building production workshops with its high strength and excellent stability. Steel has better tensile and compressive strength than traditional building materials, and can withstand the test of natural disasters such as strong winds and earthquakes to ensure the stable operation of the production line. The high strength and toughness of steel enable steel structure workshops to withstand large loads and wind forces, maintaining the stability and safety of the structure. ‌

Fast construction: The construction period of steel structure workshop is short and can be put into use quickly. Due to the use of prefabricated components, on-site installation is simple and fast, which greatly shortens the construction period. This is undoubtedly a huge advantage for enterprises that are in urgent need of expanding production scale, enabling enterprises to start production earlier and achieve profitability faster. ‌

Environmental protection performance: Steel structure workshop has good environmental protection performance. Steel is a recyclable and reusable material, which is in line with the development trend of green buildings. During the construction process, the use of traditional building materials such as bricks, cement, etc. is reduced, resource consumption and waste emissions are reduced, and it helps enterprises achieve sustainable development12.

Flexible layout: The spatial layout of steel structure workshops is flexible and changeable, and can adapt to different production needs. The plasticity of steel structure makes workshop design more flexible, and it can be customized according to the needs of production process and equipment layout to meet the production needs of different industries.

Low maintenance cost: The maintenance cost of steel structure workshops is relatively low. The surface of steel is specially treated and has good anti-corrosion properties, which can extend the service life of the workshop. At the same time, the replacement and maintenance of parts of steel structure workshops are relatively simple and convenient, which reduces the maintenance cost of enterprises.

Equipment and facilities in the steel structure production workshop

The main equipment in the steel structure production workshop includes steel plate cutting machines, slotting machines, drilling machines, shearing machines, welding machines, plate rolling machines, extruders, polishing machines and other equipment. The production line is also equipped with multiple cranes, mobile scaffolding and hoisting equipment. These equipment and facilities can provide reliable technical support for the production of steel structures and ensure the smooth progress of production.

Application fields of steel structure production workshop

Steel structure is an excellent building material with advantages such as high strength, good rigidity, strong weather resistance and easy processing. It is widely used in factories, warehouses, airport terminals, commercial complexes, stadiums and other fields. Steel structure production workshops play an important role in the construction and maintenance process of these fields.

Steel structure production workshop specifications

Building area

Building area is one of the important specifications of steel structure workshops, which is usually designed according to the needs of production or warehousing. After the building area is determined, the internal space layout design can be further carried out according to the needs of production or warehousing. The conventional specifications of the building area of ​​steel structure workshops are: 1000 square meters, 2000 square meters, 5000 square meters, 10000 square meters, etc.

Number of floors

Depending on the needs of production or warehousing, the number of floors of steel structure workshops is also different. Usually, the design of the workshop is generally 2-3 floors, and safety, ventilation, etc. must also be guaranteed. If the production needs to be expanded, the number of floors of the workshop can be increased. However, it should be noted that the higher the number of floors, the higher the construction cost and maintenance cost.

Load

The load of the steel structure workshop is also an important specification. It is usually designed according to the purpose of the workshop and the climatic conditions of the region to ensure the structural stability and safety of the workshop. The conventional specifications of the load are: 1-3 tons of light load, 5-10 tons of medium load, and 10-20 tons of heavy load. At the same time, the impact of natural factors such as earthquakes and typhoons on the load of the factory building needs to be considered.

Bay

The bay of a steel structure factory building refers to the distance between two supporting columns, which is one of the important indicators for measuring the area utilization rate of a steel structure factory building. Conventional bay specifications are: 6 meters, 8 meters, 10 meters, 12 meters, etc. The larger the bay width, the larger the usable space of the factory building, but it will also increase the project cost.

Workflow of steel structure production workshop

‌The process of steel structure production workshop mainly includes the following key steps:

Material procurement and inspection: According to the engineering needs and design requirements, purchase suitable steel, and conduct strict inspection of material, specification and surface quality to ensure that the quality of raw materials meets the standards.

Steel pretreatment: Including rust removal, grinding, sandblasting, etc., to remove rust, oil and other impurities on the surface of steel and improve the surface quality of steel.

Steel cutting and forming: Use flame cutting, plasma cutting, laser cutting and other methods to cut steel, and process steel into the required shape and size by cold bending, hot bending and other methods.

Steel welding and assembly: The cut and formed steel is welded and assembled according to the design requirements to form the basic components of the steel structure. During the welding process, the welding quality must be ensured to avoid welding defects.

Anti-corrosion treatment: After the steel structure is completed, anti-corrosion treatment is required, such as painting, hot-dip galvanizing, etc., to improve the corrosion resistance and service life of the steel structure.

Quality inspection and acceptance: After the steel structure is completed, quality inspection and acceptance are required to ensure that the performance indicators of the steel structure meet the design requirements and relevant standards.
