Project Overview:

Large Industrial Steel Workshop for Mining Machinery Manufacturing in Peru
This project is a large single-storey steel structure workshop developed for the manufacturing and processing of mining machinery components in Peru.
The building covers approximately 12,047.49 m², with a length of about 159.57 m, a width of 79.69 m, a building height of approximately 17.2 m, and a maximum structural span of 24 m.
The workshop uses a three-span steel structural system and includes crane beams to support industrial production and material handling operations.
The structural drawings were provided by the client, and our responsibility was to manufacture the steel structure according to the approved project drawings and technical requirements.Project Information:Item Details Project Location Peru Project Application Mining machinery component manufacturing Structure Type Single-storey industrial steel structure workshop Construction Area 12,047.49 m² Building Dimensions 159.57 m * 79.69 m *17.2 m Structural Layout 3 spans Maximum Span 24 m Standard Column Spacing 8 m Crane Beam Yes Approx.

Compared with a conventional warehouse, this type of industrial building needs to provide sufficient space for production equipment, material movement and crane operations.
The project therefore required:
- a workshop area exceeding 12,000 m²
- a maximum structural span of 24 m
- an overall building height of approximately 17.2 m- regular 8 m column spacing
- a three-span structural layout
- and crane beams integrated into the main steel frame
These conditions placed greater importance on dimensional consistency and coordination between the main frame, crane beams and secondary steel components during fabrication and site assembly.Our Scope of Work:For this project, the client provided the approved structural drawings.
Our responsibility was to manufacture the steel structure according to the project drawings and specified technical requirements.
The supplied steelwork included:
- main steel columns;
- roof beams;
- crane beams;
- bracing members;
- connection plates;
- and related secondary steel components.
The components were manufactured according to the dimensions, connection details and structural arrangement defined in the client’s drawings.
We did not undertake the original structural design of this project.Key Engineering & Fabrication Challenges:Large Project Scale
The workshop measures approximately 159.57 m × 79.69 m, resulting in a large number of structural members distributed across the building.
For a project of this scale, dimensional consistency is important because repeated deviations across multiple structural bays can affect alignment during site assembly.
24 m Maximum Span
The maximum structural span reaches 24 m.
Large-span structural members require careful control of fabrication dimensions, member straightness and connection positions so that the frames can be assembled correctly on site.
Crane Beam Integration
The workshop includes crane beams for material handling operations.
Their dimensions and connection positions must coordinate accurately with the supporting columns and related structural interfaces.
17.2 m Building Height
The approximately 17.2 m building height also increases the importance of accurate geometry and connection positioning throughout the main steel frame.Fabrication & Quality Control:The steel structure was manufactured according to the client’s approved drawings.
For this project, key fabrication and inspection items included:
- overall member dimensions;
- connection plate positions;
- bolt-hole locations;
- stiffener positions;
- member straightness;
- crane beam dimensions;
- and component identification.
These details are important because the fabricated members must match the structural interfaces and assembly positions defined in the drawings.
Dimensional checks were carried out before the components were prepared for subsequent site assembly.From Fabrication to Site Assembly:The steel structure fabricated for this project was subsequently assembled on site in Peru according to the approved drawings and installation sequence.
The site installation brought together the main structural frame, crane-related steelwork, secondary members and enclosure components, allowing the workshop structure to gradually take shape.
For overseas projects, the connection between factory fabrication and site assembly is especially important. Component numbering, erection information and drawing coordination help the local installation team identify members correctly and complete the structural assembly more efficiently.
We do not provide on-site installation services, but we can provide erection drawings, component marking, installation guidance, technical clarification and remote technical support when required.Planning a Similar Industrial Steel Structure Project?If you are planning a:
