Steel structural work - Import export

Novelty Steel is a contract fabricator of bespoke structural steel works comprising metal cutting, bending, machining, welding and painting. Our modern steelwork fabrication shops have computer-aided design and detailing (CAD), which is linked directly to factory floor computer numerically controlled (CNC) machinery, creating a genuine seamless CAD/CAM environment. The accuracy of the computer-generated details being transmitted directly to the CNC machinery increases the quality standards of the production. Novelty Steel has adapted EN 1090-2 standards into its manufacturing processes supervised by experienced quality management team.

The design of steel buildings is influenced by many factors, including new requirements for sustainability, and thermal and acoustic performance. The pressure for more efficient and sustainable construction processes to meet these requirements has led to a demand for higher ratios of off-site fabrication and improved quality in the performance of the chosen construction technology. Steel construction have reached a high market share in not only industrial buildings but also residential and commercial buildings, where the main advantages include: construction pace, high quality, reliability and longevity, and space usage. The majority of structural steelwork is manufactured in the steel contractor’s workshops with very little on site work required which leads to fast construction times. Unlike concrete, steel frames gain full strength when their fabrication is completed, allowing the following construction trades to continue.

Sheet metal fabrication is the process of bending, cutting, punching, assembling sheet metal to form into the desired form. Special tools, such as band saws and chops saws, can also be used in the sheet metal fabrication process. These ensure even cutting throughout the process. Parts are fabricated from a single piece of sheet metal so designs should have a uniform thickness. Although carbon steel is the most prominent material for metal fabrication, stainless steel would be necessary for high corrosive environments whereas aluminium is primarily considered when weight of the product is a major limitation.

Fabrication is the process used to manufacture steelwork components that will, when assembled and joined, form a complete frame or structure. The fabrication process of steel products can be categorized into 5 steps primarily based on the sequence of the task. These are: Steel Detailing Steel Profiling Cutting Bending Rolling Drilling Welding Surface Preparation and Painting Packagin At Novelty Steel, we usually use readily available steel sections that are purchased from the steel mills, together with complementary material such as protective paints and fasteners from other specialist suppliers.
