Pedestrian Overpasses and Elevator Frame Structures, Stainless Steel, Decoration, Glass, Aluminum Panels

As a construction method for bridges, steel structure pedestrian bridges / flyovers offer numerous advantages such as large spans, light weight, excellent plasticity and toughness, and the ability to withstand significant loads. Additionally, the construction and design of steel structure pedestrian bridges are often aesthetically pleasing, making them iconic urban landmarks that enhance the city’s identity.

Whether it’s a new steel structure bridge project or the replacement of elevator frame structures in your town with stainless steel, decoration, glass, aluminum panels, and other components, Huangxin Engineering possesses the technical knowledge, equipment, and workforce to ensure that the project is safely completed within budget.

Steel Structure Pedestrian Bridges

Pedestrian bridges, also known as pedestrian overpasses with steel structures, are typically constructed in areas with heavy traffic and dense pedestrian flow, or above intersections, squares, and railways. The main framework structure employs steel components, and the bridge deck can be cast with concrete to reduce deck vibration. The bridge railings are both aesthetically pleasing and provide protection for pedestrians. Such flyovers contribute significantly to urban aesthetics.

Steel components are fabricated in factories, resulting in high precision and quality, reducing on-site processing steps, shortening construction schedules, and saving costs. From a safety perspective, the load-carrying and load-bearing capabilities of steel structure pedestrian bridges are superior to traditional concrete structures, ensuring overall performance and safety.

Based on structure, common bridges can be classified into three categories: suspension structures, support structures, and hybrid structures. Additionally, various shapes of flyovers can be created based on traffic intersections.

Characteristics of Steel Structure Overpass Construction

For the connection of pedestrian bridges to the lower end of buildings, temporary positioning piles and elevations should be set up to effectively locate and control the bridge’s elevation, ensuring construction quality.
When welding bridge panels, submerged arc welding technology should be used instead of the previous arc welding technology to improve welding speed and quality. Additionally, it reduces the generation of harmful gases and dust during construction, benefiting the environment.
During installation, mechanical hoisting is mainly used. Steel structure pedestrian bridges are mostly installed in segments. Bridge installation involves aerial alignment, which comes with its challenges. Safe operation platforms are required, and many temporary support construction operations are often limited by conditions, so it is necessary to master installation points and be prepared for rescue.
After the bridge sections are aligned, cover welding, bottom welding, and positioning welding should be carried out immediately. They should be placed for a maximum of one night. If the humidity is relatively high, adjustments should be made to the timing to prevent rust. If any red rust spots are found, they should be dried immediately and removed before welding.

Steel Frame Elevator Shafts, Elevator Car Steel Frame Structures

For situations where traditional brick/concrete elevator shafts cannot be built due to architectural reasons or limited space, steel structure elevator shaft systems are the ideal solution. Elevator shafts provide horizontal and vertical access to different floors of a building, and this structure allows for the insertion of various glass windows, aluminum panels, stainless steel plates, or honeycomb core panels.

CHEC GOLD Engineering’s elevator shaft steel structures are highly suitable for existing buildings where the shaft cannot bear the required load, or for historic sites where walls or structures are critical to preservation. Steel elevator shafts are constructed using lightweight methods, making them ideal for new construction projects where fast construction speed and cost are primary considerations. We can install external elevators in external elevator structures or outdoor panoramic glass shafts that enhance the aesthetics of buildings.

Characteristics of Steel Structure Elevator Shafts

Simple Design, Easy Installation
Considering that elevator shafts contain numerous hardware components (piles, columns, beams, etc.), steel structures are used as supporting frames for load transfer and carrying capacity. Thus, only the steel structure for lifting loads needs to be designed and assembled, without the need for many hardware components like concrete structures. Additionally, steel structures are easier to assemble as components do not need concrete pouring or site preparation before installation.
Greater Strength at Given Weight
The design of steel structure elevator shafts considers factors like the center of gravity, loads, bending, and other stresses. This design significantly simplifies calculations, reduces the amount of required materials, and benefits steel structures.
Lower Costs, More Efficient Resource Utilization
While steel structure elevator shafts may be more expensive than concrete ones, the steel structure can be reused in new construction projects or for other purposes. In times of economic downturn and increased environmental concerns, it also helps avoid unnecessary resource waste. Furthermore, steel structure elevator shafts not only require regular maintenance (proper preservation) but also do not affect the surrounding environment (noise, dust, or vibration) during construction and for many years after completion.
Small Manufacturing Tolerances
Concrete structure elevator shafts typically require construction to minimum design standards, necessitating high standards and specific manufacturing knowledge. Furthermore, it is a type of construction with complex material requirements. In contrast, steel structure elevator shafts are usually smaller in size (sufficient for human use) compared to concrete structures, which can increase productivity and reduce manufacturing costs during the construction process.
