Structural Steel Fabrication
Full-cycle fabrication of columns, beams, trusses, and connections from approved shop drawings — cut, drilled, welded, and coded ready for site erection.
What This Service Covers
We fabricate primary and secondary structural steel for warehouses, mezzanines, industrial platforms, and multi-storey frames. Every member is produced from IDC- or engineer-approved shop drawings, with full material traceability from mill certificate to finished piece mark.
Our shop runs CNC beam lines, plasma profiling, and certified welding bays side by side, so a column line can be cut, coped, drilled, welded, and painted without leaving the building. Piece-marking and bundling follow your erection sequence, not just production convenience.
For projects requiring engineer sign-off, we support connection design, bolt-group calculations, and camber requirements, and we issue dimensional reports and NDT records on request.

How We Deliver This
Every job runs through the same sequence — nothing skipped to hit a date.
Drawing Review
Shop drawings checked against IFC structural drawings and RFIs raised before cutting starts.
Material Procurement
Certified mild steel or structural-grade sections sourced with mill test certificates.
Profiling & Cutting
CNC plasma / bandsaw cutting to length, with coping and bolt-hole drilling to tolerance.
Fit-Up & Welding
Jig-assembled connections, tack-fit, and welded by AWS D1.1 coded welders.
Inspection & Coating
Dimensional check, weld inspection, then shot-blast and primer/top-coat as specified.
Piece-Mark & Dispatch
Bundled and tagged to match your erection sequence, loaded for site delivery.

Structural Steel — Frequently Asked
Both. If you supply engineer-approved shop drawings we fabricate directly from them. If you only have structural IFC drawings, our detailing team can produce shop drawings and connection designs for engineer sign-off before we cut steel.
