Structural Steel in Orlando

Metal roofing and fabrication in Orlando, Florida, contends with significant humidity and intense heat year-round. While not directly on the coast, the region still experiences the effects of a subtropical climate, including heavy rainfall and the potential for hurricane-force winds. The existing building stock varies, with many structures built to withstand these environmental factors.

What to keep in mind locally

  • Building owners should consider the impact of high humidity on material longevity and potential for corrosion, especially for non-stainless steel fasteners.
  • Hurricane preparedness is crucial; metal roofing offers excellent wind resistance when properly installed and fastened.
  • The intense sun and heat can affect material expansion and contraction, requiring appropriate detailing and installation techniques.
  • Regular inspections are recommended to ensure the integrity of the roofing system against common weather challenges.

What the work involves

This process begins with detailed engineering plans to create custom steel members. These members are then precisely fabricated in a workshop, cut, welded, and prepared for assembly. Finally, the fabricated steel is transported to the construction site and erected into place to form the primary framework of the building.

When this comes up

  • When constructing new commercial or industrial buildings.
  • When expanding existing structures that require additional load-bearing capacity.
  • When replacing damaged or deteriorated structural elements in older buildings.
  • When undertaking major renovations that alter the building’s load paths or require a more robust framework.
