Maintenance of steel structure space frame industrial plant

The steel structure space frame industrial plant has the advantages of beautiful design, diversified body shapes, bright colors, high factory production of steel components, low engineering cost, short capital construction period, simple installation and construction, and flexible layout. Steel has the advantages of light weight, easy design and calculation, recyclability and other advantages, so that steel structures are used in large quantities in contemporary industrial plants. At the same time, the maintenance of the steel structure workshop is very important in the later use. SAFS briefly introduces the maintenance and maintenance methods of the steel structure workshop in the later period of use.

The following are three maintenance methods for steel structure space frame industrial plant maintenance:

1. The steel structure workshop is the entire connection of the structural parts. Electric lighting equipment and wires cannot be directly tied to the steel components. It is necessary to set up wire pipes or wire groove blocking devices to avoid electric shock;

2. The steel structure components should be repainted and maintained every 3 years to prolong the overall appearance and service life of the steel structure workshop;

3. After the installation of the steel structure space frame workshop is completed, the owner cannot change the structure without permission, cannot remove any bolt components, and cannot add or reduce partition walls.

If it is necessary to change, it should be negotiated and agreed with the steel structure manufacturing company before the change

Advantages and disadvantages of steel structure space frame connection

 1. Welding

Advantages: strong adaptability to geometric frame shapes and simple structure. Without weakening the section, automatic operation can be realized, the connection has good airtightness and high structural rigidity.

Disadvantages: high material requirements, reduced bearing capacity of welding residual stress and residual deformation compression components, welded structure is more sensitive to cracks, and the problem of low temperature cold brittleness is obvious.

2. Riveting

Advantages: reliable force transmission, good toughness and plasticity, easy quality inspection, and good resistance to dynamic loads.

Disadvantages: complex structure, expensive steel and labor.

3. Ordinary bolt connection

Advantages: easy loading and unloading, simple equipment.

Disadvantages: The bolts should not be sheared when the accuracy is low. When the bolt precision is high, the processing and installation are complicated and the price is relatively high.

4. High-strength bolt connection

Advantages: The friction type shear deformation is small, the elastic performance is good, and it is more suitable for the structure of the follow-up load. The bearing capacity of the pressure bearing type is higher than that of the friction type, and the connection is compact.

Disadvantages: The treatment of the friction surface, the installation process is slightly complicated, and the cost is slightly higher. The shear deformation of the pressure-bearing connection is large, and it cannot be used in the structure that bears the dynamic load.

Space Frame Structure Engineering

 1. The quality of the steel structure space frame project is affected by many factors. The quality of the steel is one of the most important aspects. It directly affects the use time of the space frame. Therefore, the choice of space frame building materials is very important. , to avoid buying inferior products.

2. Under the background that the state advocates energy saving and recyclable materials, the space frame residential building will show a trend of geometric development. Among them, steel plates, hot-rolled H-beams, steel pipes, and cold-formed steels are the main products, and products with steel strength of Q345 and Q235 are the first choice of customers.

3. The space frame structure is generally composed of roughly the same lattice or smaller sized units (repeated). Often used in roof structures. The joints of plate space frame and double shell space frame made of steel mainly include cross plate joint, welded hollow ball joint and bolt ball joint.

Space frame structure engineering is a new type of energy-saving and environmentally friendly building system, known as "green building". Space frame engineering has huge development space due to its light weight, high strength, good seismic performance, and the advantages of recycling and comprehensive use.
