Construction process of steel structure carports

2025-06-30

Steel structure CARport construction process mainly includes foundation construction, steel structure fabrication and installation, roof system construction, anti-corrosion coating and completion acceptance five core links ‌ must be strictly implemented in accordance with construction specifications and process flow to ensure structural safety and durability. ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌

Foundation construction ‌


Site preparation and measurement positioning 

Clear the site to ensure the ground is level, carry out foundation positioning and layout according to the drawings, and measure the axis lines of the columns and the elevation control lines. ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌


Foundation treatment and embedded parts installation 

Excavate the foundation and carry out backfilling and compaction. When pouring the concrete foundation, simultaneously embed the anchor bolts or embedded steel plates. Check that the positional deviation of the embedded parts should be controlled within ±3mm. ‌ ‌


Fabrication and installation of steel structures ‌


Component processing and pretreatment 

After cutting the steel, the bevel needs to be ground until the metallic luster is exposed. Before welding, check the Angle and flatness of the weld seam bevel. Before using the welding rods, they should be dried at 350 to 400℃ for 1 to 2 hours and stored at a warm temperature. ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌


Hoisting and welding of steel structures 

Symmetrical welding sequence should be adopted to prevent deformation. After welding, visual inspection and ultrasonic flaw detection should be carried out. Any defects found should be removed with an Angle grinder and then repaired by welding. The number of rework should not exceed two times. ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌


Roof system construction ‌


Structural installation and leveling 

When installing secondary components such as purlins and tie rods, a level should be used to level them, with the spacing deviation not exceeding ±5mm. ‌ ‌


Roofing material laying

The laying of color steel plates or polycarbonate sheets should be carried out symmetrically from the middle to both ends. The seams of the sheets should be filled with sealant, and rainwater troughs should be installed at the eaves to ensure smooth drainage. ‌ ‌ ‌
