PACKING
Basic Protection: Every package is bundled in tarpaulin with 2-3 desiccants bags in the bundle and the bundle is wrapped with heat-sealed rainproof tarpaulin.
Bundling: The strapping is 12-16mm Φ steel strap that fit for American port lifting equipments, 2-3 tons per bundle.
Conforming Label: Bilingual (English + Spanish) labels are affixed the material, specification, HS code, batch and test report number with the test report.
DELIVERY
Road transport: Load is trucked with securing anti-slip devices for short distances or when direct access to the construction site is available.
Rail transport: Bulk transport over the long distance at lower cost than by road over the long distance.
Sea transport: Used for domestic transport in container or in transport of long products in bulk or open top containers either in closed containers or in open top containers.
Inland waterway/barge transport: Ultra-large H beams can be transported in bulk on rivers and inland waterways.
Special transport: H-beams that are too big and/or too heavy to be transported by standard means, are carried on multi-axle low-bed or combination trailers.
US MARKET SHIPPING: ASTM H-Beams are batched packed to the Americas they are bundled with steel straping, the ends are protected and can be treated for rust aersion to shield the beams on the way.
Q: What standards are your H beams made for Central America?
A: Our H beam conform to ASTM A36 and A572 Grade 50 which is widely used in Central America. We can also provide goods according to local standard such as Mexico NOM.
