Project scope

Although we are a steel fabricator based in Kent, we also produce and supply fabricated steel throughout the entire London area.

With the increasing amount of people working from home, the demand for loft conversion steels has become very high. From initial drawings to the final result, we at MAH Steel thoroughly check through the whole process to keep everything under control.

Another loft conversion in London required some fabricated steel beams.

Fabricated structural steel for a loft conversion based in north London.

This particular project was for one of regular clients and involved measuring, cutting, and welding the steel beams as per the approved Tekla fabrication drawings issued by our in-house drafting team.

Before the steel fabrication team start, our in-house inspector checks all material! It’s very important to pay such attention to details every step of the way. Quality control is the key!

The steel then was cut to the correct size and fabricated in accordance with EN1090-2. Beams are then treated in the spay booth to prevent corrosion with our grey zinc phosphate primer. Another important thing about steel finishes, is to use the correct thickness of paint in microns. It also requires unbelievable precision. Then we hang our freshly painted steel in the yard to dry.

Finishing touches

Once the project has been manufactured, it is then checked again to make sure the right holes are drilled and the beams with end plates line up.

All steels were delivered 30 metre (90ft) crane lorry and installed to perfection. Another MAH job done! Off to the next one.
