Steel-Frame Office Building

The main frame of a Steel-Frame Office Building is composed of steel, usually formed by the interconnection of H-shaped steel beams and H-shaped steel columns to create a stable steel frame structure. Its steel frame can bear loads from both the lateral and vertical directions. Unlike traditional concrete office buildings, all its loads are borne by steel frames, and the walls usually do not bear weight and are mainly used to divide Spaces. Its main function is to serve as an office space. Its structure is more stable, and it has a larger space and more flexible layout. Its greatest advantage lies in the fast construction speed. Because all the steel structure components of this kind of building can be processed and manufactured in batches in our factory, and then the components are transported to the construction site and assembled through bolts and welding. Through factory and assembly construction models, the construction time is 50% faster than that of traditional concrete buildings.

If you are planning to build a high-rise office building with a large space, flexible layout, a creative park, a research and development center, or a high-rise office building that is earthquake-resistant and wind-resistant, you are welcome to contact us.

Product application scenarios

The design of super high-rise buildings is rather complex and requires an experienced design team to carry out the design. Moreover, it needs to be deepened based on the BIM system to achieve millimeter-level precision between structures. Our company has a professional design team and steel structure deepening engineers, who can design the effect that satisfies you according to your needs, achieving high efficiency and high cost performance.

1.Shanghai Tower

The tallest steel-frame office building in China and the second tallest in the world. Its core structure adopts a hybrid structure of "giant frame - core tube - extended arm truss". Inside the building, there is a powerful reinforced concrete core tube, while on the periphery, there is a huge steel frame composed of 8 giant steel columns, 4 boom trusses and ring trusses. This structure perfectly combines the advantages of steel and concrete, providing the building with outstanding stability against strong winds and earthquakes, while creating efficient, column-free office Spaces.

2.Office Building of Raffles City Chengdu

Chengdu is located in an area prone to earthquakes. The architectural structure design of Raffles City has fully taken into account earthquake resistance. Its tower adopts a hybrid structure that combines concrete-filled steel tube column frames with reinforced concrete core tubes. The good ductility of steel is the key - when an earthquake occurs, the steel frame can undergo a certain degree of plastic deformation, thereby absorbing and consuming seismic energy, preventing sudden brittle failure of the structure, and protecting the safety of people and property inside the building to the greatest extent. This is one of the core reasons for the application of steel structures in high-intensity areas.

How to maintain Steel-Frame Office Buildings?

The maintenance of this type of building is a full life-cycle process, with the aim of extending the building's service life and ensuring structural safety. First of all, it is necessary to regularly check whether there is obvious rust on the nodes of visible structural parts and whether the paint surface is damaged. If any problems arise, professional teams should be contacted in a timely manner for repair.

If the area you are building is in a damp or rainy environment all year round, it is necessary to pay special attention to checking the rust on the surface of the components. A thicker anti-corrosion coating can be sprayed during factory prefabrication.

Finally, it is recommended that a professional institution conduct a comprehensive inspection of the building every three or five years, including the condition of the coating, the degree of corrosion, whether the structure is deformed, and whether the fireproof coating is damaged, etc.
