Many modern buildings are erected using steel beams in Aspull as a support skeleton. The steel beams can be cut to size to be used as uprights or horizontal beams or for bracing the sidewalls. The strength of the steel beams and the thickness of the steel is directly correlated to the weight and load they will be carrying or supporting. If you are building a double story house you need to have very strong support for the upper floor. Converting a single-story home into a two or three-story home can be made easier by using a steel structure to bear the weight of the upper floors.
There are a number of different types of support structures that we can manufacture to the engineers’ specifications. In Aspull, steel beams can be manufactured by welding two beams together to form a box or column which will increase the overall strength of the beam. This is sometimes done to decrease the weight of the beam but keep the load capacity intact. The upright beams can be heavy as they are placed on the ground but in some instances, the horizontal beams need to be light but strong which can be accomplished by an experienced engineering workshop manufacturing the beams to suit the design criteria.
