Project overview
A loft conversion in Maidstone, Kent, close to our workshop in Gravesend. The conversion needed fabricated steel beams.
How we did it
Fabrication
The steel was selected from stock and taken to the saw, where it was checked off against the cutting list and cut to length. The cut lengths were taken to the fabrication area and checked again by the fabrication team. The cut ends were cleaned up and our welders welded the splice plates into place on the four-plate splice, to make sure the bolts aligned on site. Our in-house QA team checked the fabrication, the welding and the drilling for holes, plates and specifications. Spreader plates were cut and prepared in our plates area, ready to go with the main job.
Finish and delivery
The steel was blasted and painted to the correct thickness in microns and hung in the yard to dry. The QA and loading teams checked it again and added bolts, nuts, washers and packing plates (if required). It was loaded onto our 30-metre Hiab lorry, and the driver checked the load ready for an early start. It was delivered and placed exactly where the customer needed it.
Outcome
- Steel delivered and placed where the customer needed it, for a Thursday lift
