Light Gauge vs. Structural Steel Construction
The choice between light gauge construction and structural steel is an important one when it comes to choosing the right construction method. In this blog, we’ll look at the comparison between these two methods of construction and explain why it is important to choose the right one. What is light gauge steel construction? Light gauge […]
What Is A Fatigue Steel Structure?
A fatigue steel structure is a structural engineering material designed to resist deformation and strain under repeated loading. It has a higher resistance to fatigue than other conventional materials. Plus, it is ideal for structures subject to cyclic loads, such as bridges and offshore structures. How are fatigue steel structures done? Fatigue steel structures are […]
Why Do We Need To Strengthen The Steel Structures?
The most apparent reason why it’s good to strengthen steel structures is for safety reasons. Suppose you’re responsible for the safety of one or more steel structures. In that case, it’s essential to be aware of its value, potential weaknesses, and solutions so that you can take adequate steps to mitigate them. The advantages of […]
Are Concrete Or Steel Structures More Vulnerable to Earthquakes?
The durability of concrete and steel is tough to beat. It is also why many commercial and residential buildings are made of these materials. However, some factors make concrete and steel vulnerable to earthquakes. Concrete’s strength and vulnerability against earthquakes Concrete is a product of mixing cement, water, sand, and gravel. It is widely used […]
