In addition to the previously mentioned applications, S960 steel is used in various other areas of building construction due to its high strength and versatility. Here are some other apps:
Support system Lateral Bracing: S960 steel is used in bracing systems to provide lateral stability to buildings, especially in high-rise structures and areas susceptible to wind or seismic activity.
Parking facilities Multi-storey parking garages: The advantage is that parking structures with large spans and reduced column spacing can be effectively designed to maximize parking capacity.
Roof System Lightweight Roofing Sheets: S960 steel can be used in lightweight roofing systems to support a variety of roofing materials while minimizing overall weight.
Facade support system Glass Curtain Wall Support Frame: S960 steel can support large glass panels in modern architectural designs, providing strength and beauty.
Structural reinforcement Retrofit existing structures: S960 steel is often used to strengthen existing buildings, increase their load-bearing capacity and extend their service life.
Modular and pre-made systems Precast Buildings: S960 steel is ideal for precast building systems, allowing for quick assembly and reduced construction time.
Wind turbine tower Support structures: used in the construction of wind turbine towers that benefit from the high strength-to-weight ratio of tall structures.
Public Infrastructure Bus and train stations: S960 steel is used for the structural components of public transportation facilities for durability and safety.
Sports facilities Sports Stadiums and Arenas: Structural framework for large sports facilities, allowing for wide open spaces and unique architectural designs.
Temporary works Formwork and supports: S960 steel can be used in temporary formwork and support systems during construction to provide strong support for concrete components.
S960 steel is used in a variety of applications in building construction, from structural frames to specialist systems such as bracing and facade bracing. Its high strength, lightweight properties and versatility make it an excellent choice for modern construction practices, helping to improve the functionality and aesthetics of buildings.
