Sectors Which Use Our Structural Steelwork 

Structural steel is lighter than wood, brick and concrete in a strength to weight ratio which is why it’s so commonly used across various sectors. It offers a high loadbearing capacity and is a cost-effective solution, making it ideal during the construction of buildings, bridges, warehouses, factories, and other applications. 

We work with many different clients across various sectors for our different structural steel services including agricultural, commercial, industrial, leisure and local authority sectors. We have supplied steel for steel frame buildings, secondary steelwork, and builders’ beams, including:

Schools
Hospitals
Universities
Residential Projects
Airports
Factories
Commercial Sites
Hotels
Retail Spaces

Fabrication for Structural Steelwork Components

At MJ Patch, we offer fabrication services for steelwork components like an RSJ beam, as well as structural steel ready to be installed, such as a steel frame building or bridge. Once we have designed the steelwork in-house, our engineers will then carry out the fabrication process using a range of different techniques and processes. These typically include cutting, bending and folding, drilling, welding and finishing. 

Using our integrated steel fabrication facilities, we can produce a full offering of expertly crafted structural steelwork components, including:

I Beams
C Beams
T sections
HSS (Hollow Structural Section)
Channells
Angles
Plates
Rods
Sheets
Bars
Joists

Structural Steelwork FAQs

Structural steelwork is steel components used to form a ‘skeleton’ frame for a building, structure or any other built asset. Structural steel typically consists of steel columns and beams which are bolted and welded together to create the structure. That being said, there are various types of structural steelwork.

Typically, cranes and MEWPs (mobile elevating work platforms) are used to lift the structural steelwork into place and the MEWPs are used for the workers to stand on in order to access the section and ensure it is bolted into place. The process involves lifting and placing the components into position and then connecting them together. Usually bolting and welding is carried out on-site to fix the components together. 

Structural steelwork is typically used for a wide range of applications across various industries such as buildings like warehouses, offices, factories, schools, apartments and other industrial buildings. It’s also used for airports, bridges, tunnels, railways, car parks and a variety of other industries.
