The Layout design of the Steel structure platform

Date:2021-09-17

The Layout design of the Steel structure platform 

 1. Meet the requirements of process production and operation, and ensure the clearance of passage and operation. Generally, the clear height of passage should not be less than 1.8M. Generally, protective railings should be set around the platform, and the height of the railings is generally 1M. When the height of the platform is greater than 2M, a skirting board with a height of 100-150mm should be set under the protective railing. The platform should be provided with a ladder for up and down passage, and the width of the ladder should not be less than 600mm. 

2. When determining the plane size, elevation, beam grid and column network layout of the platform structure, in addition to meeting the requirements for use, the layout of beams and columns should also consider the equipment load on the platform and the location of other larger concentrated loads and large-diameter industries. Hanging of pipelines, etc. 

3. The layout of the platform structure should be economical and reasonable, and the force of the components should be directly clear. The layout of the beam grid should be adapted to its span. When the span of the beam is large, the spacing should also be increased. Make full use of the allowable span of the plank and arrange the beam grid reasonably to achieve better economic results.

Advantages of steel structure platform:

1. Fully assembled structure, removable.

2. No need to pre-buried, no damage to the plant floor.

3. Short construction period. The project will be completed in about a month after the plan is finalized.

4. The space below the steel platform can be used for production and storage, and the space above the platform can be used for storage or office.

5. Compared with the concrete structure (concrete structure), the cost is much cheaper and the cost performance is high.

Factors that need to be considered when designing steel structure platforms:

1. Earthquake resistance level.

2. The height of the platform, the load per square meter.

3. The inside and outside of the stairs.

4. Whether lighting system is needed.

5. Way of loading and unloading: lift, forklift or slide.

6. There are also some factors that should be considered in the design site. Such as: whether there is a drainage ditch underground, the position of the fire hydrant and the position of the door, whether the wall can be supported by the wall and many other factors.
