Roof steel extension refers to the use of steel to build a new structure or space on the roof of a building. This extension usually includes adding a new floor or expanding the existing roof space. However, there is an important condition for adding a floor to the roof, which is that the roof must be made of galvanized floor deck pull cement.
The roof extension with the steel structure we introduced here is a multi-story traditional building for an office building.To increase the usable area and provide more functional space, our customers chose the form of steel structure extension. Such a design of steel structure is relatively light in weight and has less bearing pressure on the original building structure.
Structural materials: Steel structures are mainly composed of steel beams, steel columns, roof panels & wall panels, and other components like bracing, tie rods, and knee brace. These steel components are usually prefabricated in the factory and then assembled on the construction site to form a new structural layer(extra story).
During construction, it is usually necessary to first determine whether the roof of the original building needs to be reinforced to support the new steel structure. The steel structure parts are then transported to the site, assembled, and finally closed, insulated, and decorated.
However, this kind of rooftop extension also has certain limitations, that is, cranes and forklifts cannot be used during installation, and installation is entirely done by manpower. Therefore, when designing, safety must be fully considered while also considering the feasibility of manual installation. The following video is a clip of the installation.
Residential: Adding extra living space on residential rooftops, such as attics or top-floor apartments.
Commercial Buildings: Expanding commercial office space, meeting rooms, or terraces.
Industrial Buildings: Extending production facilities, warehouses, or machinery space.
Steel structures offer high strength and durability, faster construction, and minimal disruption to the existing building. They also allow for flexible design, accommodating various modern architectural styles and functional needs.
Note: The addition of steel structure needs to consider structural safety, the load-bearing capacity of the building, design compliance, and management during the construction process.
It is necessary to hire professional structural engineers and architects for design and supervision to ensure the safety and quality of the addition.
Lightweight: Steel structures are lighter than concrete, reducing the load on the existing building and minimizing pressure on the foundation.
Fast Construction: Prefabricated steel parts can be assembled quickly on-site, speeding up the construction process compared to traditional concrete methods.
High Flexibility: Steel allows for various designs and modifications, providing more flexibility in space planning and use.
Strength and Durability: Modern steel is strong and durable, able to handle heavy loads and withstand harsh weather conditions.
Space Utilization: Adding a steel structure effectively uses rooftop space, increasing building area and property value, especially in urban settings.
Minimal Disruption: The clean and dry construction process of steel structures has less impact on the existing building’s use and operations.
Energy Efficiency: Steel is recyclable and can be reused, making it environmentally friendly. Modern designs also consider energy efficiency to reduce energy consumption.
