Structural steel pipes are a major category of steel pipes, widely used in various fields. In the past 20 years, structural steel pipes have experienced rapid development both domestically and internationally. It is widely used in modern industrial factories, warehouses, sports halls, exhibition halls, venues, terminals, stations and office buildings, hotels and other buildings. Due to its excellent performance, it is widely used both domestically and internationally. This article specifically introduces the uses and application knowledge of structural steel pipes for you.
1.Definition and classification of structural steel pipes
Structural steel pipe is a general term for steel pipe used for structural support. Structural steel pipe and fluid steel pipe are known as the 2 major application types of steel pipe. Structural steel pipe is also categorized into welded structural steel pipe and structural seamless steel pipe. In general, structural welded steel pipe is usually made from steel plates or coils that are welded by forming. Structural seamless steel pipe is made by drilling and rolling a round billet.
2.The application of structural steel pipes in the field of construction
Concrete pile sleeves: used to enhance the overall strength of piles and improve load-bearing capacity and stability.
Pipeline casings: primarily used for pipeline connection and protection, widely applied in building facilities and municipal engineering.
Scaffolding: manufacturing scaffolding to increase rigidity, strength, and safety for workers.
Steel rods and pole signs: producing sturdy, durable steel rods, pole signs, and lamp posts.
Fencing: stable structure, good durability, and reusable, suitable for large-scale or civil fencing production.
Handrails: adding industrial elements to space and serving decorative functions to enhance safety.
Trusses: used to construct trusses, reducing building weight and enhancing safety for large-span spaces.
Steel beams: possessing strong load-bearing capacity and excellent seismic performance to ensure building safety during natural disasters such as earthquakes.
Greenhouse pipes: excellent corrosion resistance, three times the compressive strength of ordinary steel pipes, with a service life of over 15 years.
Bridges: enhancing load-bearing capacity, structural stability, and resistance to external forces' damage.
Dams: ensuring the safety of water conservancy projects and meeting the needs of dam construction.
Steel structures: engineering structures made of various steel materials, offering sufficient reliability and good socio-economic benefits.
Prefabricated building projects: flexible layout, lightweight, good seismic performance, with structural steel pipes being vital metal materials.
3.Applications of structural steel pipes in the manufacturing sector
Shipyards: used for manufacturing ship hulls and cabins to meet maritime transportation needs.
Heavy machinery: used in manufacturing construction cranes to improve their load-bearing performance and efficiency.
Agricultural machinery factories: extensively used for manufacturing agricultural machinery wagons and frames.
Bicycle factories: applied to bicycle frames for structural stability.
Automobile factories: manufacturing chassis, frames, and other key components to improve overall strength and safety of vehicles.
Electric vehicle factories: making electric vehicles lightweight, sturdy, and durable.
Fitness equipment factories: producing various fitness equipment.
Furniture factories: widely used in many types of furniture, such as tables and chairs.
Shipping containers: manufacturing container frames to make them more sturdy and durable.
Portable houses: making the frames of portable houses, enhancing stability and safety.
Machine shops or workshops: frequently used as conventional materials to produce various structures and shapes.
DIY designers: commonly used materials for DIY enthusiasts and designers.
4.Applications of structural steel pipes in the transportation industry
Using structural steel pipes in ideal pipeline materials for transporting oil, natural gas, etc., effectively preventing leaks and environmental impact.
Natural gas pipelineļ¼Natural gas pipelines need to withstand high strength and pressure gases, as well as the effects of oxidation, corrosion, and other factors in the external environment. At the same time, they must not exhibit brittle fracture during their service life. And steel itself has good strength and stiffness, can withstand high pressure and large deformation, and also has good corrosion resistance and durability under different conditions.
Steel structure oil pipelineļ¼The reasonable selection of materials for steel structured oil pipelines can provide good resistance to loss and stiffness for the pipeline system.
