Benefits of Tata Structura Products for Your Construction Projects

[Tata Structura]

 

In the field of construction, it is important to use good-quality raw materials as they form the core of a structure. Be it for the construction of a building or an airport terminal, it is essential for the builders and engineers to install rust-resistant and corrosion-resistant steel tubes or pipes, including steel railing that would not only make the structures stronger but also long-lasting. It is for this reason that numerous individuals rely on Tata Structura products. As the name suggests, it is a Tata Steel brand that produces hollow-section steel pipes or tubes made from hot-rolled steel coils. It is basically their flagship product that comes in various sizes and shapes. Using Tata Structura’s hollow-section steel tubes will increase the lifeline of any construction project.

For the last 10 years, Tata Structura has been committing to manufacturing products that will pass the test of time, ensuring that the projects built last for a lifetime. Every construction product built at Tata Strutura is engineered with precision and they undergo a strict scrutiny process. Let’s check out the products that Tata Structura along with their benefits, offers in the realm of structural steel tubing.

Tata Structura Steel Tubes/Pipes

Structural steel tubes/pipes are the flagship products of Tata Strutura. Steel tubes come in various sizes and diameters. At Tata Structura various shapes of hollow section steel tubes/pipes are produced. Made from hot-rolled steel coils, these steel tubes are integrated into concrete bases to support a structure. The types of steel tubes available at Tata Structura are as follows:

Galvanised Hollow Sections

The galvanised hollow section steel tubes of Tata Structura undergo an extensive galvanising process, enhancing their corrosion resistance. Thus, these sections can be used in places where there is an increased exposure to moisture, chemicals and other corrosive substances. The galvanising process conducted at Tata Strutura also maximises the product’s shelf life, ensuring that your project will last for the longest time.

Tata Strutura’s galvanised hollow section steel tubes have four incredible variants with varying grades. These are:

• Tata Structura YST210
• Tata Structura YST355
• Tata Structura Z+
• Tata Ezyfit
• Tata Structura YST210

The YST 210 steel tubes of Tata Structura have a breaking strength of more than 201MPa, over 330MPa tensile strength and more than 20% high elongation. These are hollow section galvanised tubes that offer better geometric qualities, making them superior structurally to the market’s frequently available construction goods. When Tata Structura YST210 tubes are compared with open-section steel tubes, like channels and angles the combined benefit of high-quality steel tubes with constant yield strength and good geometric features saves approximately 25% of material waste. Furthermore, the coating of these Tata Structura tubes is perfect providing a smooth surface finish for a superior look and feel for the end application.

Tata Structura YST355

In 2016, Tata Strutura became the first brand to launch the YST355 grade hollow section steel tubes. These hollow section tubes have high steel strength and efficiency. These galvanised steel tubes of Tata Structura are made using high-quality hot-rolled coils which are brought from the Hot Strip Mill of world-famous Tata Steel. The YST355 grade also has a yield force of 355MPa and a UTS of 490MPa. This provides a greater strength-to-weight ratio and superior sectional features. Thus, when compared to standard angles, the hollow sections provide possible steel savings of up to 40%. These steel reductions eventually translate to more cost-effective project execution.

Tata Structura Z+

A Tata Steel brand for galvanised hollow sections is the Tata Structura Z+. The galvanised zinc coating of 360GSM on Tata Structura’s Z+ provides immense corrosion protection for various structures like roof shades, grills, solar support systems and staircase railing. By acting both as a barrier and a sacrificial layer, zinc protects the steel surface. The steel coating stops air and water from coming to the steel surface, thus preventing corrosion. Zinc can also corrode to generate a coating of zinc oxide (sacrificial anode) before enabling oxygen to interact with the steel surface. Thus, Tata Structura Z+'s 360 GSM (50 micron) pure zinc coating is particularly successful in preventing corrosion and is best suited for places with significant rainfall and humidity that have extensive corrosion difficulties. Moreover, these sections are used in aesthetic applications, usually home elevations like fences, gates, frames, grills and pergolas as well as structural roofing applications like garages and car sheds.

Tata Ezyfit

Tata Ezyfit is a Tata Structura product used for window frames and doors. These are a variant of the galvanised steel tubes that provide an aesthetic feel and robust support to doors and windows. Like other Tata Structura steel tubes, these also feature hollow parts that make the frames strong and durable. Compared to wooden frames, the Tata Ezyfit steel base is not affected by seasonal changes. Furthermore, the profile of Tata Ezyfit parts has been designed to ensure proper door fitting. In this steel tube variant, two sections are present namely, single door frame and double door frame sections.

Square Hollow Sections

Tata Structura’s square hollow section steel pipes have an aesthetic appeal. Furthermore, they are quite durable. For this reason, these tubes are integrated into concrete bases, owing to heavy-duty construction like buildings, bridges and even structural framing. The square hollow sections have incredible load capacity thus builders rely on using Tata Structura square structural steel tubes for the construction of residential & commercial buildings and even foot over bridges.

Rectangular Hollow Sections

Keeping versatility in mind, Tata Structura’s rectangular hollow section steel pipes are extensively useful in industrial applications. Since they are made from hot-rolled steel coils, these pipes have great durability and thus can increase the longevity of any project. They are often used to create industrial sheds. these steel pipes are also integral components in steel truss structure. Furthermore, they are combined with a concrete base to support flyovers.

Circular Hollow Sections

The circular hollow sections of Tata Structura have exceptional resistance to bending and torsional strength that makes them a suitable choice for applications requiring incredible structural integrity. These circular hollow steel tubes promote uniform pressure distribution, while high-quality welding and quality control techniques assure a long-lasting and dependable product.
