Lightweight Building Frame Mobile Prefabricated House Steel Structure Building Farm Storage Warehouse
Steel Structure Building: [Introduction] Steel structure is supported by high strength steel, which brings a series of good properties such as being earthquake prood, wind proof, speedy in construction and flexible in space.
Steel Structure House: Steel structure houses take advantage of the pre-engineered steel framing system which enables them to save energy, are environmental friendly, have thermal insulation, and have the least investment in duration.
Steel Structure Warehouse: Steel structure warehouse to be large span, high space utilization, rapid installation, easy to design.
Steel Structure Factory Building: Steel building factory buildings can be designed with no columns for large areas due to its strong load bearing capacity, making the buildings perfect for manufacturing and industrial uses.

Water-based fire retardant paint (fire resistance ≥1.5h)and acrylic anti-corrosive paint(UV resist, life span ≥10years) that meet local environmental protect policies.
Steel Structure Sections
I-beams (capital "I" sections – in UK are UB for universal beam, UC for universal column; in Europe IPE, HE, HL, HD and others; in US are wide flange (WF or W-shapes) and H-shapes).
Z-beams (reverse half-flanges).
HSS (hollow structural sections) and SHS (structural hollow sections) include square, rectangular, circular (tubular) and oval shapes).
Angles Steel (L-Shaped Section).
Structural channels, C-Shaped sections or C shape sections are widely available from stock.
T-beams (T sections).
Steel bars which have a rectangular cross section but are not wide enough to be classified as plates.
Steel Rods Round and square rods, which have circular or square cross sections and are longer compared to their width.
Steel Sheets, are a metal sheets of thickness not more than 6 mm or 1/4 inch.

Packaging:
Steel products are firmly packaged to protect its surface and keep the structure during handling and transportation. The components are usually wrapped with a waterproof material such as plastic film or rust preventing paper, and small accessories are packed in wooden boxes. In contrast, all bundles/sections are clearly labeled so you can unload them securely and professionally install them on-site.
Transportation:
Steel structure can be shipped by container or bulk ship based on size and destination. Large or heavy items are banded with steel strapping and wood is installed on both edges to hold the load in place while in transit. All of the logistic processes are done in accordance with international transport standards in order to guarantee delivery in a timely manner and safe arrival even if shipping over long distances or overseas.

About material quality issues
Q: Standards compliance What are the standards applicable in your steel structures?
A: Our steel structure complies with the American Standards such as ASTM A36,ASTM A572 etc. for example: ASTM A36 is a general purpose carbon structural, A588 is a high – weather – resistanc structural suitable to be used in severe atmospherics.
Q: How do you control the quality of steel?
A: The steel materials are from the well-known domestic or international steel mills which has strict quality control system. When they arrived, the products are all tested rigorously, including the chemical composition analysis, the mechanical properties testing and the nondestructive testing, such as the ultrasonic testing (UT) and magnetic particle testing (MPT), to check if the quality meets with related standards.
