All steelwork is precision-fabricated in-house, including cutting, drilling, welding, and connection detailing. Sections are supplied ready for installation, reducing time on site and improving overall project efficiency.
Our team regularly works alongside contractors, developers, and structural engineers to deliver steel structures into live and logistically complex environments, maintaining programme deadlines without compromising on quality or safety.
Box frame
A box frame is a structure that is made from two columns and two beams which looks like a typical rectangular or square. This structure is needed to support buildings if walls are removed. Box frame needs to be used if there is no party wall agreement in place.Goal post frame
A goal post frame structure is generally used for rear extensions where the foundations are suitable or where pads for the columns to bear onto can be dug and cast in concrete. The 2 columns transfer this load down to the foundation and also add greater lateral stability. It can also be used if there is no party wall agreement in place.Cranked roof frame
Cranked roof frame is an essential part when it comes to loft conversions. Additional cross beam helps to support roof joists.Portal frame
Portal frame is a low-rise structure supported by columns and characterised by a beam or rafter. However, the joints between the beam and columns are 'rigid' so that the bending moment in the beam is transferred to the columns.Ready to discuss your project?
