Cement factory in Turkey
Location: Turkey
Project Type: Steel Truss
Project Overview:
Our company was contracted to design, fabricate, and erect a steel grid structure for a state-of-the-art cement factory in Turkey. The implementation of a steel grid system was chosen to optimize structural integrity, enhance durability, and accommodate the expansive spans required in industrial operations.
Scope of Work:
Our responsibilities encompassed the comprehensive development of the steel grid structure, including:
- Fabrication: Utilizing advanced CNC machinery and technological tools in our state-of-the-art fabrication facility to produce precise and high-quality steel components.
- Construction and Erection: Managing the on-site assembly and erection of the steel grid structure, coordinating with other contractors to ensure adherence to project timelines and safety protocols.
Key Features
- Steel Grid System: A spatially arranged lattice grid structure designed to support the roof of the main production workshop without intermediate columns.
- High-Precision Fabrication: All nodes and pipes were prefabricated in-house using CNC cutting, robotic welding, and automated painting systems to ensure accuracy and durability.
- Modular Assembly: Prefabricated modules were assembled on-site with bolted connections, reducing construction time and improving safety.
Technical Specifications
- Structure Type: Double-layer steel grid structure
- Material: Q235B/Q355B pipes and spherical nodes
- Surface Treatment: Shot blasting + epoxy zinc-rich primer and topcoat
- Grid Span: 40–60 meters free span
- Connection Type: High-strength bolted joints with spherical nodes

About Steel Grid Structures:
Steel grid structures, also known as space frames or grid shells, are three-dimensional frameworks composed of interconnected steel members arranged in a grid-like pattern. This configuration efficiently distributes loads across the entire structure, providing exceptional strength and stability over large spans without the need for internal support columns. The inherent rigidity and lightweight nature of steel grids make them ideal for various architectural and industrial applications.
