Custom Structural Steel Work

Structural fabrication is priced by weight, tonnage, with a significant premium for welding complexity, connection detailing and finishing. A simple built-up beam costs far less per kg than a plate girder with heavy stiffening and precise fit-up requirements. Share your structural drawing and specification for an accurate quote; generic per-tonne estimates are unreliable here given how much labour content varies.

IS 2062 specifies the material: the steel grade, chemical composition and mechanical properties, E250, E350 and so on. IS 800 is the general design and construction code, covering how members are sized, connected and detailed using that material. Both apply together. IS 2062 tells you what the steel is; IS 800 tells you how it's used structurally.

Standard rolled sections, I-beams, channels, angles, are more economical where a standard size meets the load requirement. Built-up sections, welded from plate into custom I or box profiles, get used where a standard rolled size doesn't exist for the required capacity, or where an unusual cross-section is needed for architectural or specific structural reasons. Your structural engineer's design will specify which is needed; it's a calculated decision, not a preference.

500 tonnes of built-up plate girders typically take 10–14 weeks from raw-material order to last batch dispatch. Galvanizing slot booking is the long-pole item, we hold galvanizing capacity against confirmed contracts.
