Our Comprehensive Steel Structure Erection Process
1. Pre-Construction Planning
Before any steel leaves our fabrication facility, our erection team conducts thorough pre-construction planning that includes site assessment, lifting plan development, resource allocation, safety protocol establishment, and sequencing strategy.
2. Site Preparation
We ensure a properly prepared site through foundation verification, survey and layout work, strategic equipment positioning, coordinated deliveries, and establishing safety perimeters for lifting operations.
3. Primary Steel Installation
Our skilled teams precisely place and plumb main structural columns, install primary beams and trusses, secure cross-bracing elements, implement all connections to specification, and continuously check for structural alignment.
4. Secondary Steel Installation
Following primary steel erection, we install supporting structural elements including purlins and girts, mezzanine structures, stairs and platforms, equipment supports, and architectural steel components.
5. Sheeting and Cladding Installation
As part of our turnkey approach, we complete the building envelope with roof systems, wall cladding, trim and finishing, weather sealing, and architectural features for a comprehensive solution.
6. Quality Assurance and Project Completion
Our commitment to quality extends through project completion with comprehensive structural inspection, connection verification, alignment confirmation, cladding assessment, detailed documentation, client walkthrough, and formal sign-off.
