How to Fix and Prevent Roof Leakage in Light Steel Structures

-
图片
Roof leakage is one of the most common problems in light steel workshops and warehouses. It not only affects daily use but also causes internal corrosion, shortens the building’s service life, and leads to higher maintenance costs. Most leakage happens at panel joints, screw holes, flashing areas, or around openings. The main reasons are poor waterproof treatment, aging sealant, loose screws, or improper installation. To fix existing leaks, first clean the surface and locate the leakage points. Replace damaged or aging sealing strips. Re-tighten loose screws or replace them with waterproof self-drilling screws. Apply professional waterproof sealant at joints and openings. For serious cases, add a layer of waterproof coating to improve protection. To prevent future leakage, use high-quality roof panels and waterproof materials from the beginning. Ensure professional installation with standard flashing and sealing design. Conduct regular inspections, especially before rainy seasons, and ...

What are coal bunkers used for?

coal bunkers

A coal bunker is a facility used to store coal and is usually located at a power plant, industrial facility, or other site that requires large quantities of coal. Its main uses include:

 

Fuel supply: coal bunkers are used to store coal to ensure a sustainable fuel supply. Coal is an important energy resource used in areas such as power generation, heating and industrial production. 

Regulating Fuel Supply: A coal bunker can help balance the supply and demand for coal. It can store coal when there is sufficient supply to meet peak hour demand, or provide reserve fuel when there is insufficient supply. 

Coal quality management: In a coal bunker, coal can be monitored and managed to ensure its quality meets specific requirements. This includes controlling moisture content, particle size and chemical composition. 

Reduced transport costs: By storing large quantities of coal in a centralised location, transport costs can be reduced as the coal can be delivered to its destination in a single trip rather than having to be transported frequently. 

Stability of fuel supply: Coal bunkers can help ensure the stability of energy supply and reduce the risk of supply disruption.

In short, coal bunkers play an important role in the storage, management and supply of coal, especially in industrial and energy production areas where large quantities of coal are required.

What is a coal bunker?

-

Coal bunker , is a structure used for storing coal. Coal bunkers play an important role in thermal power plants, coal mines and coal marshalling stations. Depending on the specific application scenario and design, there are various types of coal bunkers, such as circular coal bunkers, square coal bunkers and open coal yards. Safety Management of coal bunkers Preventing spontaneous combustion of coal: Since coal itself contains certain moisture and volatile substances, long-term exposure to the air may lead to spontaneous combustion, so the safe management of coal bunkers is of great significance in preventing spontaneous combustion of coal. Ensure the quality of coal: coal in the coal bunker usually needs to be stored for a long time, if not managed properly, it may lead to the decline in the quality of coal, such as sulphurisation, weathering and other phenomena, so it is necessary to ensure the quality of coal by strengthening the safety management of the coal bunker. Improve the eco...

What is the difference between a single-layer reticulated shell and a double-layerreticulated shell?

  The differences between single-layer reticulated shells and double-layer reticulated shells are as follows: Structural Configuration   Single-layer reticulated shell: Composed of a single layer of members, with the members directly connected to form a grid structure . The node configuration is relatively simple, typically employing rigid connections that allow the members to bear not only axial forces but also bending moments and shear forces.   Double-layer reticulated shell: Consists of upper and lower parallel layers of members connected by web members, forming a truss-like structural system. The nodes are generally hinged, and the members primarily bear axial forces. Its configuration is relatively complex, requiring more members and nodes to ensure structural stability and load-bearing capacity. Structure Single-layer mesh shell: composed of one layer of rods, the rods are directly connected to form a mesh structure, the node structure is relatively simple, usually...

Structural Steel Bolting Balls: Connecting the Future, Securing the Cornerstone

-
图片
In the field of steel structure , bolted ball, as an innovative choice of connecting node, is gradually becoming the preferred solution in modern buildings and industrial facilities due to its advantages of easy installation, removable and reorganisable, and low maintenance cost. Compared with traditional welded balls, bolted balls not only simplify the construction process and improve efficiency, but also give the structure greater flexibility and sustainability, which is an indispensable and important component in modern steel structure projects. The core concept of the bolted ball connection technology is to use high-strength bolts to closely connect the components to form a stable and reliable node structure. Compared with welded ball, bolted ball connection does not require on-site welding and avoids thermal stress, deformation and weld quality problems that may arise during the welding process, thus improving the overall stability and safety of the structure. In addition, the bo...
