Warehouse Roof Structure Utilizing Prefabricated Steel Elements to Achieve Faster Assembly and Construction in Logistics Facilities

Steel Structure Project Showcase: Premium Warehouse Facility for Global Logistics Leader

Project Overview

We were commissioned by a top-tier international logistics enterprise to deliver a 12,000 ㎡ high-bay warehouse facility, designed to support their regional distribution expansion strategy. Completed in just 180 days, this state-of-the-art steel structure building combines exceptional load-bearing capacity, spatial flexibility, and energy efficiency, setting a new benchmark for industrial construction in the region.

Core Advantages of Steel Structure Application

• Unmatched Structural Strength The main frame adopts Q355B high-strength steel, with a clear span of 36 meters and a floor height of 12 meters, enabling the installation of 10-ton overhead cranes and heavy-duty pallet racking systems. The structure can withstand a maximum snow load of 0.7 kN/㎡ and wind speed of 30 m/s, fully adapting to the local climate conditions.

• Rapid Construction & Cost Efficiency Utilizing prefabricated steel components with precision machining accuracy within ±2mm, we achieved 70% on-site assembly completion rate. Compared to traditional concrete structures, the construction period was shortened by 40%, and the overall project cost was reduced by 15% while maintaining superior quality standards.

• Future-Proof Flexibility The modular steel frame design allows for seamless expansion of up to 50% of the current footprint without disrupting ongoing operations. The open floor plan can be reconfigured for automated storage systems or production line integration, providing long-term adaptability for evolving business needs.

• Technical Innovation Highlights

• Advanced Anti-Corrosion System We applied a three-layer fluorocarbon coating with a thickness of 80μm, combined with hot-dip galvanizing treatment for all steel components, ensuring a 30-year anti-corrosion warranty even in high-humidity coastal environments.

• Intelligent Environmental Control Integration The steel roof structure integrates a natural ventilation system with adjustable louvers, reducing annual energy consumption by 22% compared to conventional warehouse designs. The pre-insulated steel wall panels achieve a U-value of 0.3 W/(㎡·K), maintaining optimal indoor temperature for sensitive cargo storage.

  Performance Verification

• Structural safety certification: Complies with AISC 360-16 and GB 50017-2017 standards
• Fire resistance rating: 2-hour fire protection achieved through intumescent coating application
• Energy efficiency rating: National Class A certification
• Client satisfaction score: 98/100 in post-occupancy evaluation

• "Steel structure technology not only fulfilled our immediate operational requirements but also provided a sustainable foundation for our future growth. The project team's expertise in balancing engineering excellence with practical functionality was truly impressive."
