How to Select Steel Structure?

Clarify the Needs

Purpose:

Is it a building (factory, stadium, residence) or equipment (racks, platforms, racks)?

Load-bearing type: static loads, dynamic loads (such as cranes), wind and snow loads, etc.

Environment:

Corrosive environments (coastal areas, chemical industrial zones) require enhanced corrosion protection.

Low-temperature or high-temperature environments require weather-resistant steel (such as Q355ND).

Core Material Selection

Steel Grades:

Common structures: Q235B (cost-effective), Q355B (higher strength, recommended for mainstream use);

Low-temperature/vibration environments: Q355C/D/E (select Grade E for temperatures below -20°C);

High-corrosion environments: Weathering steel (such as Q355NH) or galvanized/painted reinforcement.

Cross-sectional forms:

Steel sections (H-beams, I-beams, angles), square and rectangular tubes, and steel plate combinations are available, depending on load requirements.

Key Performance Indicators

Strength and Toughness:

Inspect material specifications (yield strength ≥ 235 MPa, tensile strength ≥ 375 MPa);

Low-temperature environments require impact energy to meet standards (e.g., ≥ 27 J at -20°C).

Dimensional Deviation:

Check cross-sectional height and thickness tolerances (national standards allow ±1-3 mm).

Surface Quality:

No cracks, interlayers, or rust pits; uniform galvanized layer (≥ 80 μm)

Advantages of steel structures

Excellent Mechanical Properties

High Strength and Lightweight: Q355 steel boasts a yield strength of 345 MPa and weighs only 1/3 to 1/2 that of concrete steel structures, significantly reducing foundation costs.

Outstanding Toughness: Low-temperature impact energy at -20°C ≥ 27 J (GB/T 1591), offering exceptional resistance to dynamic loads (such as crane vibration and wind vibration).

A Revolution in Industrialized Construction

Controllable Precision: Factory CNC cutting tolerance ≤ 0.5 mm, and on-site bolt hole alignment > 99% (reducing rework).

Shortened Construction Schedule: The Shanghai Tower's core tube utilizes steel structure, setting a record of "one floor in three days."

Spatial and Functional Advantages

Flexible Span: The National Stadium (Bird's Nest) achieves an exceptionally large span of 330 meters using 42,000 tons of steel structure.

Easy Retrofitting: Removable beam-column joints (e.g., high-strength bolt connections) support future functional changes.

Environmentally friendly throughout the entire life cycle

Material recycling: 60% of the scrap steel's value is retained after demolition (the 2023 scrap steel recycling price is 2,800 yuan/ton).

Green construction: No maintenance or formwork support is required, and construction waste is less than 1% (concrete structures account for approximately 15%).
