 In the rapid advancement of modern industry, industrial buildings serve as the core spaces for production and storage. Their structural design must not only fulfil functional requirements but also balance safety, economy, efficiency, and sustainability. As a company consistently focused on environmental stewardship and dedicated to providing high-quality, safe, and robust steel structure designs and products globally, we recognise that space frame structures represent the ideal solution for achieving these comprehensive objectives in industrial building applications. Space frame structures comprise spatial grid systems formed by multiple members connected through nodes. Their unique load-bearing characteristics and geometric configurations offer exceptional advantages in industrial building construction: Achieving Extraordinary Spans: Industrial facilities frequently require expansive, column-free spaces to accommodate production line layouts, large-scale equipment installation...

The port of Pointe-Noire in the Central African Republic, situated on the Atlantic coast, serves as the nation's vital economic gateway. The region experiences a typical tropical maritime climate characterised by year-round high temperatures and humidity, abundant rainfall, and strong sea breezes. As a port area, the terrain is generally flat, though it may encounter issues with foundation bearing capacity and tidal influences. Pointe-Noire Given these climatic and topographical characteristics, the following preliminary steel structure design proposal aims to provide guidance for constructing storage warehouses at Black Point Port.   Why choose steel structures ? In environments such as Black Point Port, steel-framed storage warehouses offer distinct advantages: Efficient construction: Steel components can be prefabricated off-site and rapidly assembled on-site, significantly reducing the construction timeline. For port projects, this translates to faster operational readiness an...

In the construction of modern industrial buildings , steel structures have become the preferred choice for an increasing number of enterprises due to their unique advantages. Not only can they meet the demands for large spans and expansive spaces, but they also excel in construction efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability. Selecting the appropriate steel structure configuration is crucial to ensuring the functionality, safety, and economic viability of the building. 1. Portal Frame Structure Characteristics: A frame structure comprising solid or lattice steel columns and beams connected rigidly. Features a straightforward design with clear load transfer pathways. Advantages: Simple structure: Relatively straightforward to design and construct, facilitating standardisation. Rapid construction: Components are highly prefabricated in factories, enabling swift on-site assembly. Cost-effectiveness: Relatively low construction costs for medium-to-small span industrial buildings (t...

 In recent years, with the development of China's economy and the continuous advancement of science and technology, large-span steel structures of various forms have been widely used in public buildings such as sports venues, exhibition centers, theaters, large shopping malls, airports, and stations. In the industrial sector, large-span industrial plants, especially under the requirements of environmental protection policies, have seen significant application in the enclosure of various material yards in recent years. Large-span steel structures have entered a period of vigorous development. The concept of steel tube trusses A structure formed by a plane or three-dimensional truss composed of round or square (rectangular) tubes. Its axis is a two-dimensional curve (such as an arc, parabola, catenary, or ellipse), and it relies on the thrust of the tubular truss column feet to resist the action of loads in the plane. Steel tube truss structures , as a branch of large-span spatial s...

  In the world of steel construction, corrosion prevention is not just a technical necessity — it's a strategic investment in the longevity and value of your structures. At Xuzhou SAFS Steel Structure Engineering Co., Ltd., we understand that every project is unique, and so are the challenges posed by its location, seasonal changes, and environmental factors like wind speed. That ’ s why we offer customized corrosion prevention solutions tailored to your specific project requirements. Why Corrosion Prevention Matters? Corrosion can significantly reduce the lifespan of steel structures, leading to costly repairs, safety hazards, and even structural failure. By implementing effective corrosion prevention measures, we ensure that your investment remains durable, aesthetically pleasing, and fully functional for years to come. Our Tailored Approach Project Location Analysis We start by analyzing the environmental conditions of your project site. Whether it ’ s a coastal area with high ...

👉 Project location: Nigerian coast 👉 Project type: Mine warehouse (span 100 metres, length 125 metres) 1. Structural Design  Span and Length:  The mine warehouse has a span of 100 metres and a length of 125 metres, employing a large-span steel structure design to ensure structural stability and load-bearing capacity.  It is recommended to use a steel truss structure or space frame structure to meet the large-span requirements and optimise material usage.  The structural design must consider wind loads, seismic loads, and dynamic loads during the operation of the bucket wheel excavator. Foundation Design:  Since the project is located by the sea, the foundation may be relatively soft. It is recommended to use deep foundation design (such as pile foundations) to ensure structural stability.  Foundation construction must consider the impact of groundwater levels and saline-alkali environments, and foundation reinforcement should be carried out when necessa...

Dreaming of vast, uninterrupted interior spaces for your next project? Steel space frame roofing offers a powerful and efficient solution for achieving impressive clear spans. Their unique three-dimensional truss system distributes loads effectively, allowing for lightweight yet incredibly strong structures ideal for arenas, warehouses, and commercial centers. At SAFS Steel Structure, we specialize in designing and delivering these innovative roofing systems. One key advantage of steel space frames is their efficient use of materials. The triangulated design maximizes strength while minimizing steel tonnage, leading to potential cost savings. Furthermore, the modular nature of space frames facilitates efficient prefabrication and streamlined on-site assembly. This faster construction timeline can significantly reduce overall project costs and accelerate occupancy. Beyond structural efficiency, space frames offer significant design flexibility. Architects can create ...
