Steel beams and columns for a repeat customer in Edgware, delivered and erected by our team

Project overview

This project, for a customer we had worked with before, was in Edgware, London. We discussed exactly what steel beams and fabrication they needed, and when, along with the measurements, drawings and finishes, and then started work immediately.

Work delivered

Fabrication

The steel arrived by lorry at our yard and was unloaded and checked before the saw team confirmed it was straight and the sizes and thicknesses were correct. It was cut to length following the planned drawings. Our fabricators double checked the size and length, ground the beam ends ready for the plates, and marked up the plates and beams for drilling by our drill team. The welding team then completed the welding as instructed, and our in-house inspector checked the welds and, after painting, the paint thickness and quality.

Delivery and erection

The steel beams and columns were loaded onto our Hiab lorry by forklift, with a final check that everything was in place. At the site, our on-site team unloaded the steel and positioned it with the lorry-mounted crane. According to the original write-up, the beams and columns were then erected and bolted in place, levelled and lined, and the job was signed off once the customer approved it.
