What steps are needed to build a steel structure plant and what do you need to pay attention to?

Steel structure plant Construction Process

Pre-planning and Approval

Obtain land use right permit and complete project feasibility study and investment budget.

Determine the functional layout of the plant according to the production requirements (equipment arrangement, logistics channel, etc.) and complete the environmental protection assessment

Steel Building design stage

Structural design: load calculation, seismic/wind design, determination of steel specification and node connection method are completed by professional team.

Construction drawing deepening: including details such as foundation positioning, component dimensions, anti-corrosion requirements, etc., which need to be reviewed by a third party.


Steel structure plant Foundation Construction

After the site is leveled, the line is placed and positioned according to the drawings, and the independent foundation or raft slab foundation is poured, and the embedded bolts need to be accurately positioned and prevented from contamination.

Steel Building Fabrication and Transportation

Factory prefabricated components (cutting, welding, painting), transported after passing quality inspection, deformation prevention is required during transportation.

Steel structure plant Main body installation

Order: steel column → main beam → secondary beam → roof frame → support system. The verticality error should be controlled ≤2mm when using lifting equipment.

Steel Building Enclosure construction

Installation of roof panels (pay attention to the waterproof layer lap) and wall panels (including insulation), door and window openings need to be reinforced.

Steel Building Acceptance and Delivery

Staged acceptance (concealed work, main structure, fire protection system, etc.) and handover of the manual after passing the test


Steel Building Key Considerations

Design Compliance

Need to comply with the Code for Quality Acceptance of Steel Structure Construction (GB50205), focusing on checking the node seismic design and the thickness of the fireproofing coatings.


steel structure plant Material and construction quality

steel need to have a quality certificate, welding process evaluation qualified, welds need to do ultrasonic flaw detection.

The torque value of the bolt connection part should meet the design requirements (such as high strength bolt final screwing torque error ≤ ± 5%)

Steel Building Safety Control

Safety nets are required for overhead work, warning lines are set up in the lifting area, and welding operations are equipped with fire blankets.

Steel Building Anti-corrosion and Maintenance

Hot-dip galvanization (coating ≥80μm) is recommended for coastal areas, with regular inspection of corrosion and paint touch-up.

Steel Building Compliance Procedures

Rural construction land is subject to agricultural land diversion approval, and industrial land is subject to environmental assessment and fire protection inspection.

Schedule control: using BIM technology to optimize the sequence of component installation can shorten the schedule by 20-30% on average

Cost optimization: strip foundation saves about 15% of concrete consumption compared with independent foundation, but subject to geological conditions.
