Project Background
About This Project
The project involved the fabrication of a 900-ton steel structure specifically designed for air-cooled auxiliary equipment in a petrochemical facility. The structure was intended to support heavy fans, pumps, and auxiliary machinery. Meichen Steel Structures Co., Ltd. was responsible for the complete scope, including 3D modeling for steel structure detailing, fabrication, and delivery. This steel structure provides reliable support for the equipment while ensuring long-term safety and stability under operational vibrations and environmental loads.
Client Requirements
What the Client Needed
All products are manufactured strictly according to EN and ASME standards, followed by pre-assembly in the factory, with a perforation rate of up to 100%.

Standards & Delivery
Quality Assurance to Final Delivery
Quality Control
Material traceability was maintained according to project requirements. Raw materials were inspected before production, and welding and surface treatment were checked after fabrication. Third-party inspection was arranged when required to support compliance with project quality requirements and EN standards.
Surface Treatment
Surface preparation is carried out to Sa 2.5 for main structural members including columns, beams, bracing members, equipment beams, pipe racks, and support structures. The standard coating system consists of epoxy zinc-rich primer (80 μm), epoxy micaceous iron oxide intermediate paint (100 μm), and aliphatic polyurethane topcoat (50 μm). Topcoat colors are applied according to component type, including silver gray, blue, and light yellow.
Packing & Delivery
During packing, each steel component was clearly marked for identification to facilitate installation at site. Timber supports and protective spacers were applied at bundling points to protect the painted surfaces from damage during handling and transportation.
