Structural Steel Canopy Comparison Points
Compared with aluminum alloy or wooden canopy, this Structural Steel Canopy has an absolute advantage in large span and high load applications due to its high elastic modulus and welding strength.
Solve the hidden danger of structural corrosion in coastal and high humidity environment
Aiming at the problem of paint peeling and rusting in the traditional steel canopy within 3-5 years, we adopt a double-layer protection system that is hot-dip galvanized first and then sprayed. As a sacrificial anode to protect the steel substrate, the zinc layer can heal itself even if the coating is scratched, which completely solves the problem of metal corrosion maintenance in high salt spray areas.
Addressing structural deformation and collapse risks in extreme weather
In view of the deformation problem caused by the accumulation of light canopy unable to resist typhoon or blizzard, we provide a load calculation based on PE (Professional Engineer) seal. Through the selection of high section modulus HSS steel, to ensure that in 50 years 1 the extreme wind and snow load, the structure is still rigid and stable, to ensure the safety of personnel.
Solve the problems of long construction period and limited hot work on site
In view of the pain points that open flame welding is strictly prohibited and the construction period is tight in commercial building renovation projects, 100 percent of the factory prefabricated production and bolting design are adopted. After the components arrive at the site, they only need to be hoisted and bolted, without on-site painting and welding, shortening the traditional 2-week installation cycle to 3-5 days.

Instructions for Structural Steel Canopy
Check of foundation embedded parts
Before hoisting, the position of embedded bolts on the concrete foundation must be rechecked with the total station to ensure that the error is within ± 3mm. If deviation is found, chemical rebar planting or adjusting plate shall be used for correction. Forced installation shall not lead to structural stress concentration.
Member hoisting and temporary support
When the girder is hoisted by a crane, soft pads shall be applied to protect the coating at the contact point between the sling and the steel. After the cantilever beam is in place, the temporary support rod must be set immediately, and the support can not be removed until all connecting bolts are tightened to the design torque.
High-strength bolt torque tightening
Tighten the bolts in the “initial-final” sequence using a calibrated torque wrench in accordance with ASTM A325/A490. For M20 bolts, it is recommended that the final tightening torque should reach 400-500 N · m (refer to the installation drawing for the specific value), and mark the tightening state.
Coating repair and joint sealing
After installation, check for minor scratches on the coating caused during transportation or installation, and use the matching zinc-rich primer and topcoat for repair. Weather-resistant silicone sealant shall be applied at all wall joints to ensure the waterproof and air tightness between the canopy and the main body of the building.
