Construction and Steel Structure

While exposed structural steel was once the selected province of a few not worthy projects, nowadays architects are increasingly using transparency in their design as architecturally exposed structural steel (AESS) to meet the current modern building needs and trends. On the one hand AESS are unavoidable due to the long span and triple and more height galleries, which would support the double glassing curtain walls and skylights, further due to client needs to bring the modernized innovative aesthetical architectural ideas and fast track construction completions.

On the other hand, the adequate care has to be taken from beginning of the design for construction completion to serve the intent, where well effective structural members, materials, construction methods, connection types, paint coatings, etc. are to be selected, which would require professional workmanship, computerized robotics fabrication, tight quality control procedures, coordination, erection and handing to complete the project on intended time and budget
