Steel finds its extensive usage in almost all fields - houses, industries, factories, mining, drilling, bridges, constructions and agriculture. Due to its countless benefits over other alloys, it is regarded as one of the most valuable and 'high demand' metals.

From sports gear and refrigerators to protective footwear, it has extensive usage. Besides, the structured is recyclable and highly durable. Over the years, metal fabrication has developed a lot and there are professionals who deliver quality services. When appointing a steel fabricator, the most important factors that one must pay heed to are - enough experience, state-of-the-art techniques and quality service.

Structural fabricators supply and manufacture structural steel for engineering projects - commercial as well as residential construction. This may range from large-scale projects like petrochemical and nuclear plants to residential projects. Small contractors as well as big developers need structural engineering services. These professionals fabricate and manufacture all types of structural steel products like portal frames, PEB Structure, trusses, cladding and extensions.

Before the introduction of BIM techniques and 3D CAD modeling, structural designing process was executed through engineering assessment; the design was illustrated with a set of architectural framing sketches. Generally, 2D sketches are used as the construction deed by the fabricator, delivering complete structural details for the structure or building. The fabricator prepares construction documents and design computations using the 3D model. This is basically used for two reasons - generating CNC or computer numerical control data and extracting fabrication shop drawings. With CNC data, they organize the fabrication procedure and ensure proper delivery of equipments at the construction location. High-tech structural steel design software like AutoCAD provides a designer with the flexibility to create a range of user-defined elements, using accurate geometric details.

These structural steel fabricators are employed in a range of applications, and the construction process is pretty simple. They manufacture steel items by bending, cutting and assembling metal parts, usually fabricated with sheet metal or structural steel. These steel products can be used for almost anything. Structural is often used for the formation of sports bleachers; they might also serve as the sports structure for roller coasters.

  2. It blows my mind when I think back on how difficult it must have been to painstakingly model every detail that needed to be fabricated with 2D sketches. Thankfully we have computers nowadays that can greatly help speed up the process of metal fabrication. We can probably think up a design, get it modeled out, and get it fabricated within the time-span of a day, something that really wouldn't have been possible one hundred years ago.
