In the industrial projects, fabricated steel products are usually needed that are in the form of approved drawings, sizes, material grades, connection and service condition. The production of pipe supports, frames, platforms, stairs, handrails, guard rails and project specific components should be done with controlled cutting, fit-up, welding, finishing and inspection.
Best International Contracting Company offers fabrication services to project owners, main contractors and industrial facilities in Saudi Arabia with which it can enter into contracts to address specific needs. Our services can be used to serve new-building, plant upgrades, maintenance outfits, shutdown preparation, building interfaces, piping and infrastructure development.
Being a steel fabrication company that KSA customers can approach to provide them with appropriate packages, BIC considers approved drawings, material specifications, quantities, tolerances, and welding requirements, coating systems, inspection points, and delivery dates before starting the production process. The structural design, process design, authority approval and final site installation are all not mentioned unless they are specifically mentioned in the accepted contract.
The start of fabrication is defined by a definite technical package. Dimensions, sections, plates, connection, weld detail, finishes, item marks and installation interfaces, should be defined by issued drawings. Where there is missing or even contradictory information the concerned item must be clarified prior to the commencement of cutting.
BIC aligns fabrication with acceptable shop drawings, material availability, sequence of production, inspection phases and delivery priorities necessities. They can be sorted by area, system, erection sequence or project release plan in such a way that they come in a convenient sequence.
Field measurement might be necessary on replacement or tie-in items. Recorded actual dimensions are only consulted and changed by the project process; structural sizes, load paths or connection concepts are not changed by the site team without documented permission.
Pipe Support Fabrication
Piping systems must have supports to ensure that they uphold the approved route, elevation and movement allowance. False articles can be brackets, frames, shoes, guides, anchors, trunnions, support details- dummy legs and other approved.
To fabricate pipe supports Saudi Arabia demand BIC can fabricate based on issued drawings or approved fabrication details. Support design, load requirements, choice and ultimate locations of springs are left to the piping or engineering discipline that performs the work unless outsourced.
Structural Steel Components
BIC has the capability to produce appropriate beams, columns, frames, skids, equipment bases, canopies, platforms, stairs, ladders and secondary steel items to the industrial and construction projects.
KSA scope is our structural steel fabrication that is oriented on the production of approved components. The art of building design, significant structural engineering and overall building construction are still part of their respective responsibilities.
Guard Rails and Handrails
Walkways, edges, platforms, stairs, pits and restricted areas are defined with the help of guard rails and handrails. Height, post spacing, and rail arrangement, toe plates, connections and protective finish ought to be in accordance with the approved drawings.
In the case of guard rail fabrication Saudi Arabia projects, BIC is able to fabricate straight pieces, returns, removable panels, gates and appropriate special pieces. Only listed in the proposal, site survey, anchoring and installation can be included.
Platforms, Stairs and Access Components
Industrial facilities can be in need of access platforms, stairs, ladders, walkways, gratings, toe plates and support frames on equipment, buildings and process areas.
Fabrication is founded on accepted sizes, loading data, clearances and connections specifications. The ultimate compliance with access and structural adequacy are open to the responsible design and project approval.
Equipment Frames, Bases and Skids
Support items can be a base frame, mounting plate, small skids, support bracket and transport or maintenance frame. Correct dimensions and interface data are very vital prior to fabrication.
Mechanical alignment, grouting, installation of equipment and verification of its operation are not covered under the Mechanical Works or equipment-vendor except in a very explicit context.
Sheet-Metal and Plate Components
Appropriate packages can include covers, trays, chutes, drip pans, guards, enclosures, transition pieces, base plates, gussets and any other approved plate or sheet pieces.
The thickness of materials, bend issues, welds, stiffeners, holes and the size of the finish and interface are to be verified prior to production. Unless agreed upon, special pressure vessels, coded equipment and certified process items are excluded.
Custom Industrial Components
Projects usually involve non-standard products which are not categorized as a standard product catalogue. BIC has an opportunity to check appropriate custom parts in which the project has approved drawings, material requirements and acceptance criteria.
Where repetition is required, or where intricate interfaces are involved, prototype, trial-fit or sample fabrication can be used to confirm that things work out before full production.
Repair and Modification Fabrication
Existing steel items may require local replacement, reinforcement, extension or modification. The state of the original part, connection points and structure around it should be checked prior to the approval of the final repair detail.
BIC is able to make replacement parts and acceptable modifications pieces. The responsibility of the engineer in charge is to do structural assessment, defect cause analysis and load verification.
It should start its production based on drawings that will give sufficient information to produce and test every product. BIC is able to organize appropriate shop drawings, cutting lists, item marks and material take-offs where they are a part of the contract.
Shop drawings are worked out based on the information on the design approved by the customer and are not used in place of a design engineer. Connection, connection sizes, loads and design purpose must be validated prior to release to production.
Fabrication planning takes into account availability of materials, cutting optimisation, weld order, distortion, inspection access, coating and trial assembly and delivery order.
The material of steel sections, plates, pipes, gratings, fasteners and welding consumables must be in accordance with the approved material requirements. Checks on visible damages, dimensions and available identification on delivered items are checked prior to their use.
The storage of materials is done in a way that minimizes distortion, corrosion, contamination and mixing of grades or project systems. Cut items and made parts are labeled per the agreed system of identification.
The amount of documentation to be used must be established prior to fabrication where traceability records are needed. This can be added to material procurement and standalone supply can be added to BIC Industrial Material Supply services.
The fabrication can be sawing, mechanical cutting, thermal cutting, drilling, punching, rolling, bending, bevelling and edge preparation based on the approved drawing and material.
Parts are inspected in terms of dimensions and pattern of holes prior to assembly. Preparation of cut edges, notches and openings should be performed in such a way that they do not cause accidental damage or to disturb fit-up.
The material thickness and where the grain direction is needed should be taken into account to form an operations plus where the required finished shape is needed. Parts with uncontrollable cracking and distortion must be examined prior to use.
Proper fit-up is an aid to quality of weld and ultimate dimensional accuracy. The parts are to be arranged, fixed and verified and then permanently joined.
Repeated items can be done in templates, jigs or trial assemblies. Complex connections or interfaces with existing equipment. Bolt holes, flange faces and connection points, critical dimensions are checked against the approved drawing.
Uncontrolled heating or overcorrection and forced assembly must not be used to hide faulty preparation. The deviations are noted down and sent to be approved where necessary.
The procedure of welding is to be done as per the project requirements. The production is controlled via joint preparation, fit-up, consumables, environmental protection, sequence, cleaning and identification.
The allotment of the welders is based on the approved project requirements. The size of the weld, length and location is verified against the issued drawings and specified inspection is done before coating or delivery.
The sequence and restraint used in welding will be determined to minimize distortion. Where there is a need to have heat treatment, specialist metallurgy or coded fabrication, this is only mentioned when it is well spelt out and backed by the required approved procedures.
The inspection of fabricated items must be done at appropriate stages and not after they are completed. Checks can involve material, dimensions, fit-up, the look of the weld, marking of the item, preparation of coating and its final appearance.
In cases where the project needs non-destructive inspection, the method, extent, criteria of acceptance and party responsible should be mentioned in the inspection plan. BIC organizes the access and documentation of the agreed scope of inspections.
The coating, packing or delivery of items is not carried out until the necessary fabrication inspections are done or accepted officially to the next stage.
The fabricated steel can have to be galvanised, painted, or covered with some protective coating or any other approved finish depending on the surrounding environment and the service that it is to be used in.
Preparation of the surface, primer, intermediate and finish coats, dry-film requirements, colour, touch-up method and areas that should not be coated to allow welding or bolting should be defined by the coating system.
BIC is able to coordinate the coating in the fabrication package as mentioned. High-performance or lining systems Specialist fireproofing needs to have their own approved product and application requirements.
Trial assembly has potential to minimize site challenges where pieces have many parts that are bolstered together and recurring frames, stairs, handrails or connection interfaces.
The size of the trial should be in line to the complexity, the tolerances, transport set up and demand of the project. Assembly references and match marks are used prior to components being removed to be coated or delivered.
Trial assembly is a check of fabrication fit that replaces final site check, structural check or installation verification.
When storing and transporting fabricated items, dimensions, coating, machined areas, threads and identification marks must be taken care of and packed to ensure their protection.
Loose parts, bolts, plates and small parts are bundled and labeled in such a way that they can be easily recognized to fit in the right part of the assembly. Where necessary lifting points and centre-of-gravity are indicated.
The sequence of delivery can be based on project area, system, erection priority or customer release plan. Unloading and installation of the site will be a different task unless specified in the proposal accepted.
Jubail projects commonly involve pipe supports, access platforms, guard rails, equipment frames, structural changes and project-specific steelwork of new developments, maintenance and shutdown work of plants.
Being an industrial fabrication company that Jubail customers can contact to get the right packages, BIC evaluates the drawings, work fronts, material grades, inspection, access limitations and delivery sequence that are needed prior to production.
In the case of field measurements or site changes within the existing facilities, the access and permits are synchronized with the customer site-control process. Final tie-in work or erection work is only carried out when it is specified.
The industrial buildings, equipment areas, utility facilities, warehouses, maintenance platforms and project infrastructure can be supported with the structural and secondary steel packages.
BIC produces certified members and assemblies to the project issued requirements. Design calculations, connection engineering, methodology and structural acceptance of erection is retained by the engineering and site teams accountable unless contracted out.
Both proposals will specify the extent of the coverage of fabrication, supply and fabrication, coating, delivery or a package which includes installation support.
There are parts which cannot be completed until site dimensions are checked. Local brackets, tie-in pieces, repairs or modifications may be controlled field fabricated where it is impractical to produce by workshop methods.
Site work will be carried out based on permits, hot-work controls, operations nearby, lifting, access and protection of the existing equipment. The work environment should contain sparks, fumes, noises and loose materials.
Massive construction of structures, scaffolding and heavy lifting are considered as single or combined project scopes based on the proposal accepted.
The lifting, cutting, grinding, welding, hot surfaces, compressed gases, sharp edges, rotating equipment and coating materials may be involved in fabrication activities.
The areas of work should be separated, ventilated, kept clean, provided with fire precautions and storage of materials. The components are held in place preventing rolling, collapse or uncontrolled movement during manufacturing.
The use of lifting accessories, machines and tools are utilized in terms of the capability intended. The completed products that have sharp projections, unstable geometry or a lack of lifting features are rectified prior to handling or delivery.
