Classification of industrial buildings
The strong development of the industry leads to increasing demand for factory buildings to serve the production and storage of goods. To meet diverse needs, industrial buildings are classified according to many specific criteria, helping to optimize efficiency and suit each specific purpose. Below is a detailed and complete industrial building classification system:
1. Classification by shape:
- Rectangular factory: The most popular type, meeting diverse production and storage needs with flexible area.
- Round warehouse: Suitable for storing products in silos and tanks, saving space and optimizing space.
- Assembly house: Easy to construct, dismantle and move, suitable for temporary or changing needs.
- Farm: Specially designed for livestock and farming activities, ensuring suitable environmental conditions for animals and plants.
- Closed workshop: Isolated structure, ensuring safety and security for specific production activities, often used in defense, chemical industries,...
2. Classification by scale:
- Small factory: Area under 1.000m², often used for small and medium-sized enterprises, limited-scale production.
- Medium factory: Area from 1.000m² to 5.000m², suitable for businesses with larger production needs and product diversification.
- Large factory: Area of over 5.000m², for corporations and large businesses with modern, highly automated production lines.
3. Classification according to intended use:
- Factory: The place where manufacturing, assembly, and product processing activities take place is often equipped with specialized machinery and equipment systems.
- Storehouse: Used to store raw materials, finished products, and goods, ensuring appropriate storage conditions.
- Distribution center: Place to gather, classify and transport goods to retail and consumption points.
- Cooperage: Specializing in manufacturing packaging and containers for products, often used in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical industries,...
4. Classification by resources:
- Steel Building: Using steel frame combined with corrugated iron roof and panels, has high durability, good resistance and easy construction.
- Concrete house: Built from reinforced concrete, it has the advantages of solidity and good fire resistance, but construction costs are higher than steel buildings.
- Wooden house: Often used for special purposes such as handicraft factories, farms, etc. due to its aesthetic and environmental friendliness.
- Assembly house: Using pre-manufactured prefab components, it is possible to combine many types of materials such as steel, wood, panels, etc.
5. Classification by manufacturing industry:
- Heavy industry: The factory has a solid structure, can bear large loads, serving the production of products such as machinery, equipment, vehicles, etc.
- Electronic manufacturing industry: The factory needs to ensure a clean environment, static electricity, humidity and stable temperature to meet the production requirements of electronic components.
- Shipbuilding industry: The factory has a spacious area and high load capacity to serve the building and repair of ships.
- Food and beverage manufacturing industry: The factory needs to ensure food hygiene and safety, have a good ventilation system and meet product quality standards.
In addition, industrial houses can also be classified according to a number of other criteria such as:
- Number of floors: 1-storey, 2-storey, multi-storey factory.
- Location: Factory in industrial park, independent factory.
- Production technology: Traditional factories, automated factories.
Why should you use steel structures when building industrial buildings?
In industrial building construction, steel structures are considered one of the top choices for many different reasons. Below are the benefits of using steel structures in industrial building construction.
- Durable: Steel structures are a highly durable material that can withstand major natural impacts such as earthquakes, wind, rain, storms, insect intrusion and almost any other factor that can affect the structure. build.
- Save costs and construction time: Steel structures are light in weight and can be built faster than other structures such as cement, wood, granite, etc., helping to reduce maintenance costs during the use of industrial buildings.
- Flexible design capabilities: Designed as simple blocks, steel structures have flexibility in construction and design.
Above are the benefits of using steel structures for industrial house construction. If you are in need of building an industrial building, choose steel structure to take advantage of the advantages it brings.
Criteria when designing industrial steel structures
When designing steel structures for industrial buildings, there are many factors that need to be considered to ensure efficiency and safety. Below are some important criteria in the process of designing steel structures for industrial buildings.
- Load capacity: This is an important factor to consider to ensure the steel structure can withstand the load.
- Reliability: Steel structures need to ensure no deformation during use and high durability.
- Fire resistance: Steel structures can be designed to meet fire resistance requirements to minimize the risk of fire and explosion in the factory.
- Cost savings: Steel structure design needs to be considered to minimize costs. This can be achieved through optimal design, use of low-cost materials and efficient construction methods.
- Safe: Steel structures need to be designed to ensure safety for both the factory and the employees working in it. The structure must be able to resist vibration, withstand earthquakes and be ready for emergency situations.
- Weld strength: Besides the force-bearing factor, weld strength on steel structural joints is also a factor to consider to ensure structural safety.
- Design changeability: Changes during factory use also need to be considered during the steel structure design process. The design needs to ensure the ability to change and expand to meet future needs.
