Functions and Characteristics of Box-type Steel Structure

Box-type steel structure is similar to a large iron box in overall shape. It is generally assembled by welding or bolting steel sections and is usually used as beams or columns. It is generally composed of top plate, bottom plate, side plate and end plate. Box-type steel structure is a very common structure, especially with good seismic performance, and is widely used in industrial plants, commercial buildings and other fields. Box-type steel structure has various structural forms, and is made into different forms of box-type structures according to different building types and design requirements.

1. Strong bearing capacity and high stability: Due to its box-type structure, the bending, compression and torsion resistance in all directions are more balanced, and it can withstand greater loads.
2. Good space utilization: The hollow internal design meets the strength of the structure, reduces the use of materials, and saves space.
3. Simple construction and mature processing technology: The box-type structure is easy to process and the technology is relatively mature. It is a commonly used component structure. In addition, modern welding technology is used to make the structure more solid and have stronger seismic and wind resistance.
4. Light weight: Box-type steel structure is lighter than traditional concrete structure and traditional steel structure, but its strength is not reduced.
5. Convenient installation: Box-type steel structure is easy to install, and the frame splicing is quick and easy, which can greatly shorten the construction period. At the same time, various pipelines and cables can be reserved in the structure for subsequent maintenance.
6. Beautiful: The appearance of the box-type structure is neater, regular, and the surface is flat, which can provide a simple and atmospheric appearance for the building. It has higher aesthetic value.

Application of box-type steel structure

Box-type steel structure is widely used in various construction fields, industrial plants, commercial buildings, exhibition halls, gymnasiums, steel structure bridges, and aerospace fields. At the same time, it is also used in temporary buildings and emergency housing.

Box-type structure is an indispensable part of steel structure multi-story buildings due to its excellent bearing performance, excellent bending stiffness, reliable seismic resistance, and good processing performance and welding performance. In the present and future, box-type steel structure will be used in steel structure buildings and play an important role. In short, the box-type steel structure system is a new type of building system that is fast, environmentally friendly, efficient and safe. It has the advantages of a wide range of applications, simple construction, beautiful appearance, durability and reliability, and it has great development prospects in the future.
