Requirements for workers when welding roof space frame structures

Image
  When we want to use the roof space frame structure to construct a building, we should be able to find whether we choose to use manual installation, or equipment and manual cooperation. All this requires the use of weld ing. Therefore, when we install the roof space frame structure, we can reduce the rework by selecting welders with better skills. So when we welders are working, how can we improve the stability of the building? First, when welding the roof space frame structure, we must first check the condition of the material, and then proceed with the construction without any problems. Second, before construction, you must pay attention to protect yourself, so you must wear protective equipment during construction. And in the case of bad weather, don't have an accident in order to catch up with the construction period. Third, when welding the roof space frame structure, it is necessary to pay attention to the quality of the building after welding. The more common method is to ...

How to avoid corrosion in steel structure engineering

Image
  As we all know, the most afraid of steel structure engineering is corrosion, so how to avoid corrosion? Please be sure to have 3 necessary conditions at the same time, namely material, substance and tensile stress. Therefore, it is necessary to start from these three hazard elements, and take corresponding countermeasures from product design, installation engineering construction to important links in enterprise production management. (1)  Material: use duplex stainless steel; select welding consumables with basically the same composition and microstructure as the base metal (the principle of equal composition); (2)   Substance: The possibility of corrosion of the base metal by the substance must be specifically considered, in order to reduce or remove stress corrosion in special environments, and corrosion inhibitors can be added to the substance.Metal surface treatment technology can also be used to prepare cathodic protective coating or physical barrier coating...

Seven precautions for the construction of large space frame engineering

Image
The design scheme of the large-span space frame structure should be determined by comprehensive analysis of the plan shape, span, support, load size, and architectural design of the project.The structural layout and support plate method should ensure that the structure has an effective force transmission method and overall stability. The plan structure shall be provided with a support system outside the plan. Inquiries: safsteelstructure.com/contact-us/ For the large-span space frame structure in the seismic area, the horizontal and vertical seismic action effects should be considered according to the seismic code. For the covering of the large-span space frame structure, the relative comfort requirements should be considered according to the use function. According to the structure of the long-span space frame structure and the way of connection points, the type of prefabricated components, and the load characteristics, and considering the relationship between the upper large-span s...

Do large-span steel structure space frame need to be fireproof

Image
The long-span steel structure space frame usually loses its bearing capacity at a temperature of 450-650 °C, and undergoes great deformation, resulting in the bending of steel columns and steel beams, and cannot be used continuously due to excessive deformation. Generally, the fire resistance limit of unprotected steel structures is about 15 minutes. The length of this time is also related to the rate at which the component absorbs heat. In order to make steel structure materials overcome the deficiencies of fire protection in practical applications, fire protection treatment must be carried out. The purpose is to increase the fire resistance limit of the steel structure to the limit range specified in the design code. There are various measures to prevent the steel structure from deforming and collapsing due to rapid heating in a fire. The key is to take different methods according to different situations, such as using heat insulation and refractory materials to block the flame to d...

Support arrangement of steel space structure

Image
  The support of the steel space frame structure includes peripheral support, point support, etc. Peripheral support is currently the most commonly used form of support, which is to put  the peripheral nodes of the space frame  on columns or beams. Point support means that the space frame  rests on an independent column, which have no connection with other structures.   The space frame  structure generally support by top chord . When the bottom  chord support is required due to the building function, vertical or inclined side trusses should be formed on the surrounding supports of the space frame  to ensure the geometric non-deformation of the space frame  and can  effectively   transfer the upper chord vertical load and horizontal load to the support. Free consultation: https://www.safsteelstructure.com/contact-us/  The horizontal rigidity in the plane of the two-way orthogonal truss is relatively small , to ensure the ...

Where can space frame structure be used?

Image
  The space frame  is composed of multiple rods connected by nodes. The construction method of factory production and site installation can shorten the cycle, reduce the cost and improve the economic benefits. More professional space frame  companies can provide better quality space frame s. And the material selection is better, which can make the overall cost-effective. And there will be more outstanding performance in terms of durability and aesthetics. To sum up, the space frame  structure can be applied to the roof of the station hall, the canopy of the stadium stand, the roof of the gas station, the coal storage shed, etc. In addition, the space frame  structure is more suitable for large-span roofs. Because it has the characteristics of good space force, high rigidity, steel saving, good seismic performance, small building height, and beautiful appearance. The space frame  structure is also commonly used in the roofs of construction projects such as l...

Three Methods of Space Frame Installation

Image
  What are the 3 methods of space frame  installation ? SAFS steel structure professional technical staff share with customers and friends:   1.  Splicing the entire space frame  directly, after the completion  of  the corresponding ceiling method to hoist the entire space frame  into the air, and then within a certain hovering time, weld the space frame  in the corresponding position and connect it with the whole  building . This method is faster  to install, but has higher requirements for operators. 2.  The method is relatively mild, the space  frame works directly at a high place, and the space  frame is installed bit by bit through the part that intersects with the building, that is, starting from the surrounding area and completing the work at the final center point. The schedule  is very slow, but the operation difficulty is also reduced a lot. 3. This method is mainly applicable to the quadrangular pyrami...
