Fabrication for construction
From 1st July 2014 all structural steel within new build or renovations and/or extensions must be certified and bear CE marking as a legal requirement. Along with a traceability documentation trail.
Standley Steel are fully certified and approved to supply this.
Here at Standley Steel, we regularly get requests to supply and fabricate steelwork for home extensions or, new builds – this is what we excel at.
A modern trend nowadays is for day room/ conservatories to be built onto the rear of an existing property along with ‘open plan’ living. These both would require steel beams or sections to support the walls above. These can be designed for single skin internal walls or, cavity walls. The latter usually require a pair of Universal Beams connected together in a pair.
If you are considering changing or updating your property, here are a few things to consider before proceeding with your steel enquiry or order.
The main thing is to plan well ahead and recruit the following tradesmen in the following order:
Engage an architect
Consult a structural engineer
Recruit a reputable builder
Provide accurate measurements prior to fabrication.
Standley Steel measuring service is available if required.
