Steel has found its use in almost all places, houses, industries, mining, drilling and agricultural purposes, bridges and buildings. Steel is one of the most preferred metals due to its various advantages over other metals. Even on a comparatively smaller scale, steel is widely used in hospital equipment, refrigerators, protective foot wear and so on. Structural steel is stronger and is not damaged by termites as in wooden construction.
Another advantage is that structured steel can be re- used and are durable. Hence structural steel fabrication and metal steel fabrication industry has grown in leaps and bounds and there are professionals like Equifab, a Toowoomba based company that offers their best services.
While hiring the services of Structural steel fabrication, the main qualities needed are complete dedication to quality, good experience and state- of- the- art techniques. Stainless steel and metal fabrication are also made use in structural steel design and steel erection drawings, steel pile foundation drawings, steel metal design, steel metal drawings, steel fabrication drawings and many more. These are highly helpful in developing a very efficient steel building in a short span of time.
Steel fabricators therefore, make use of all these techniques and arrive at a great end product for all types of mining, drilling and agricultural construction purposes. Hence structural steel fabrication is initially done through graphic representation and get an idea of the pre fabricated building components that are proposed to be used in the construction. This saves a lot of time and investment.
The structural engineers offer services coupled with their unique experience by first preparing designs of steel structures and then, go on to create steel fabrications. First, the raw material is cut down to the required size and then, the various parts are welded together to make the final product desired. Pipes, metal sheets, plates, hand rails are some of the parts used in steel fabrication.
They can be done in two ways; either by melting raw material at high temperatures and mixing them with steel or using an electric arc furnace where recycled steel is melted at high temperatures and then, mixed with other elements to get the final product. Steel detailing is the most crucial part of Steel Fabrication and this needs the touch of professionals. Installation and periodic maintenance is also done by structural steel fabricators. Equifab has a team of trained professionals who have sufficient experience and apply latest technologies in the art of steel fabrication.
