Site Visit #3

Small residential building comprising light steel framework. The steelwork is non-galvanised, which may lead to rusting.


Good example of a combination of onsite weldings and prefabricated bolt connections.


Detail of steel column's endplate being bolted to slab.


Reinforced concrete wall and rendered blockwork creating a garden bed / retaining walls.


Hot-dip galvanised circular hollow setion. Most likely to an external column.


Starter bars for garden bed.


Example of onsite welding for connection of beams. Bolts may yet to be secured, or perhaps they will not be used if the bolt openings on the adjacent beam are not aligned.
