Steel Structure: Diverse Steel Structure Systems Drive Modern Construction


Along with the quick growth of industrialized building and the green building concept, the steel structure is becoming the mainstream selection for industrial, commercial and public buildings for the high strength, high construction speed, recyclability and other strong adaptability. From H Beam Steel Structure to Portal Frame Structure, different steel structure systems are serving different functions, spans, and architectural forms.

Main Types of Steel Structures and Their Applications

1. H Beam Steel Structure
The H-shaped steel is used as the load-bearing element. There is high capacity of load and good stability.

Primarily applications:
Works in industries
Multiple stories and high steel buildings
bridge and platform of equipment

Types and Grades:
Standard grades: Q235, Q355, S355, ASTM A572
Ideal for large spans and heavy loads Customize it today .

2. Truss Structure
Made up of straight components connected at ends to form triangular or polygonal shapes, it is known for its high efficiency in material use.

Primarily applications:
Football and basketball halls
Convention and Trade Fair Centres
air projects terminals

Material & form:
Typically this are considered round pipes, square tubes, or angle steel
Flexible shapes for very large spans

3. Roof Structure
Steel structures for truss roof, space frame, light steel roof systems

Key applications:
Sports venues
Logistic Warehouse
Industrial workshops

Material & Form:
Spans and materials varies: H beams, pipes, or light-gauge steel
Lightweight and Long-span performance

4. Wall Bearing Structure
Structures in which walls are underpinned by or sintered with steel structural system.

Primarily applications:
light industrial
prefabricated buildings

Material and form:
Light steel keels or thin-walled steel sections
 Mostly used for low-rise buildings

5. Metal Frame Structure
Space frames created by beams and columns.

Uses:
Commercial multi-storey building Office buildings
Business buildings
Industrial buildings

Material & form:
Usually use the H beams or box columns
Information: Clean force transmission Regular Layout.

6. Portal Frame Construction
Beams and columns are connected rigidly in portal frame, which is a “gate” shaped plan

Main applications:
Industrial workshops
Warehouses
Logistics centers

Material & form:
mostly welded H beams
Large span and high economic efficiency

Key Differences Between Steel Structure Types

1.Variances in Material Selection
Heavy duty q355, s355, astm a572 and other stainless metal
Light-duty materials: light gauge steel, galvinized steel
Special conditions: weathering steel or stainless.

2.Variant in shape
H Beam Steel Structure “H” shaped section
Truss Structure:triangular (space frame) systems
Portal Frame System: beam rigid column portal form
Roof System: trussed space frame or llight steel form

3.Peculiarities of Structural Performance
Truss systems: good for very large spans, optimize material use
Portal frames: cost-effective, well-suited for factories and warehouses
Frame designs: used successfully for multi-storey buildings with well defined load paths
Light steel frames: speedy construction, design for single-storey buildings
