Industry Overview
Fabrication is a specialized industry of significant importance that bridges the gap between steel producers and end users. It covers a broad range of structural applications, including shuttering and scaffolding materials used across construction and infrastructure activities.
The principal fabrication processes include cutting, welding, bending, grinding, and painting. Structural fabrication is extensively used in residential buildings, commercial complexes, multi-storied buildings, bridges, industrial structures, and other developmental projects. Scaffolding materials commonly include Acrow Props, Acrow Span Floor Forms, H-Frame Systems, and related components.
Acrow Props are manufactured in various sizes, while slab forms help eliminate the need for cut timber pieces and can accommodate irregular slab shapes. Floor Forms are primarily used in bridge and industrial building construction and are fabricated from sheets with processed flanges and stiffeners. H-Frame and cross-brace systems provide good concrete finishes and are available in various standard sizes. The industry therefore supports a wide range of construction requirements through standardized and fabricated formwork and scaffolding systems.
