Quality Assurance in Steel Fabrication

Certified Welding Team

Internationally recognized welding certifications are held by all fabricators. Multiple welding processes, including SMAW, GMAW, and FCAW, are performed based on project requirements.

Material Traceability

Full traceability is maintained for all structural steel. From delivery through fabrication to final installation, each batch is tracked. Mill test certificates are preserved for comprehensive quality documentation.

Weld Inspection & NDT

Critical welds were inspected during and after fabrication. Visual inspection and dye penetrant testing identify surface defects. Ultrasonic testing (UT) and radiographic inspection (RT) are conducted for sensitive projects.

Dimensional Verification

Every component is checked against approved engineering drawings before delivery. Calibrated measuring tools and total stations confirm structural accuracy. Typical tolerances held to ±2mm.

Surface Preparation & Coating

Blasting to SA 2.5 standards removes mill scale and rust before coating. Priming and painting were applied per specifications. Hot-dip galvanizing is arranged through approved partners for maximum corrosion protection.

Materials & Standards

Structural Materials Used:
● Structural carbon steel (ASTM A36, EN 10025)
● Mild steel plates
● Universal beams and columns (UB, UC)
● Channels and angles
● Hollow structural sections (HSS) - square, rectangular, circular
● Pipes and tubular sections
Fabrication Standards Followed:
● AWS D1.1 - Structural Welding Code - Steel
● ISO 3834 - Quality requirements for fusion welding
● Project-specific engineering specifications

Fabrication Process: From Drawings to Delivery

Drawing Review & Detailing

Approved engineering drawings were reviewed in detail. Shop drawings were prepared showing dimensions, connections, weld details, and material grades. Coordination with consultants confirms accuracy before fabrication begins.

Material Procurement & Traceability

Certified structural steel procured from approved mills. Mill test certificates verified and logged. Material tagged and tracked throughout fabrication.

Cutting, Forming & Fabrication

CNC cutting, drilling, and forming were performed per shop drawings. Components assembled and welded by certified fabricators. Fit-up checked before final welding.

Quality Inspection & NDT

Visual inspection, dimensional checks, and non-destructive testing were conducted at critical hold points. Inspection reports compiled for project records.

Surface Preparation & Coating

Blasting and priming were applied per specifications. Coating thickness verified with dry film thickness gauges.

Delivery & Logistics

Fabricated steel was loaded safely for transport. Lifting plans and delivery schedules coordinated with site teams.

Applications of Steel Structure Fabrication
