Erecting Steel Framing

The first step in erecting steel framing is to lay out the foundation according to the building’s blueprint. Once the foundation is in place, the steel components are positioned and bolted or welded together. The final step in erecting steel framing is to add cladding and finishes, such as windows, doors, and exterior siding. Structural steel erection is a complex process that requires specialized training and equipment. As a result, it is essential to hire a qualified Structural Erector who has experience erecting steel framing. Structural erectors are responsible for connecting the different parts of the frame using bolts, welding, or rivets. They must also use lifting equipment to hoist the steel into place. A project engineer or manager usually oversees the process of structural steel erection. Structural erectors need to understand blueprints and engineering drawings to carry out their work correctly.
