Steel structure design is a very professional issue. Both the owner and the steel structure fabrication manufacturers will employ professional steel structure building designers or technicians to design. Whether the design of the steel structure is reasonable can be evaluated from the following aspects:
Whether the structure is reasonable: First of all, from the perspective of structural safety, check whether the design complies with the corresponding building specifications and standards and whether it can meet the load requirements. Whether the structural type selection is suitable for the corresponding building type, such as a simple portal steel frame structure for an industrial plant, a large-span truss structure or a grid structure for a gymnasium.
Whether it is conducive to construction: whether the design scheme considers the feasibility and convenience of construction and installation, whether the steel structure transportation and installation of components are considered, and whether the structure of the connection node is easy to construct. Some designs only consider economic issues, and the steel consumption may be low in the design, but the thin plate may be easy to deform during the processing, and it is also a great challenge for installation. Although the steel consumption seems to be economical, the processing fee and installation fee will be correspondingly higher.
Whether the space utilization is reasonable: whether the design considers the reasonable use of space and whether it can meet the spatial functional requirements of the building. As long as the spatial functional requirements of the building are met, do not blindly pursue large spans and large spaces, because larger spans will lead to a sharp increase in the amount of steel used. As long as there is no waste of space and the layout is reasonable, it will be fine.
Whether the durability of the building can be achieved: the selection of steel material, corrosion resistance, whether the wind and snow load is reasonable, fire prevention measures, whether the seismic performance is considered, etc. will affect whether the steel structure building has sufficient durability within the service life.
Cost control: Compare the cost budget of the design plan, including material cost, construction cost, transportation, installation cost, etc., whether it is within the project budget.
Whether the design shape conforms to the building function and whether it is beautiful and reasonable: If it is a simple factory building, there is no need for complex shape design, simple and generous will be better. For buildings with complex shapes, the feasibility of processing and installation should be considered, and the structure should be as simple and clear as possible.
If it is a drawing designed by a steel structure manufacturer, the owner can find a professional designer for evaluation. For any building, design is the first and most important step. The rationality of the building design is related to the construction and safety of the building. Sometimes it may take several months or even a year for the designer to make the drawings, but it may only take two months for processing and installation.
