Hibuild Steel Targets 60,000 Tons of Structural Steel Production Annually by 2028 in the UAE

The UAE simply rhymes with architectural innovation and rapid infrastructural development. Right at the core of these growths lies structural steel, the backbone of modern construction. Hibuild Steel Building System International, a leader in the steel industry, has made sure that dominance in the region is firmly established by offering state-of-the-art structural steel production facilities. With a focus on pre-engineered steel systems, Hibuild shapes the skyline of the UAE and beyond.

One of the key players in the field of pre-engineered steel manufacturing in the United Arab Emirates is Hibuild Steel Building System International. Their Umm Al Quwain production facility is at the forefront of producing high-quality pre-engineered steel (structural steel) components for a variety of applications, ranging from industrial buildings to commercial spaces. This facility, with its state-of-the-art technology, ensures that the steel components meet international standards of quality, strength, and precision.

Hibuild’s facility in Umm Al Quwain is a significant hub for the growing demand for pre-engineered steel buildings in the region. It serves as a vital source for the UAE’s infrastructure development, contributing to the region’s booming construction industry. With an emphasis on sustainability and innovation, Hibuild is setting new benchmarks in the production of pre-engineered steel that is not only cost-efficient but also environmentally friendly.

The Role of Pre-Engineered Steel in Modern Construction

From efficiency and durability to adaptability, pre-engineered steel systems have taken over the construction world. It includes pre-designed components that are fabricated off-site and assembled in no time on-site, thereby reducing construction time and cost by a substantial margin. Hibuild has perfected this process to meet the highest global standards.

Pre-Engineered Steel Production Process at Hibuild

  1. Design and Engineering
    ○ Initial Consultation: Working with the client to establish the project’s needs, including load specifications, building dimensions, and environmental concerns.
    ○ 3D Modeling: Creating detailed, precise designs for all projects using advanced CAD/CAM software.
    ○ Structural Analysis: It includes compliance with the most comprehensive international standards over safety and efficiency by simulations and calculations.
  2. Material Selection
    ○ High-Grade Steel: Supply of high-quality steel that provides strength, durability, and resistance to environmental stress.
    ○ Sustainability Focus: Incorporation of recycled materials to reduce environmental impact.
  3. Fabrication Process
    ○ Cutting: Advanced CNC cutting machines ensure precision in the dimensions of every component.
    ○ Welding: The robotic welding system ensures strong and consistent joints that guarantee maximum stability.
    ○ Forming: Modern roll-forming equipment shapes steel components with a great deal of precision and consistency.
    ○ Punching and Drilling: The systems provide for automated punching and drilling, making accurate holes that are quite easy to assemble.
  4. Surface Treatment
    ○ Shot Blasting: This is a cleaning operation used to remove impurities and prepare the steel for coating. The process provides a clean, smooth surface that is important for the adhesion of protective coatings. Shot blasting improves the durability of the steel by removing rust, mill scale, and other contaminants.
    ○ Painting: After blasting, the steel members are painted with high-performance paints for added corrosion resistance to the aesthetic appeal. At Hibuild, state-of-the-art painting processes are used, such as the airless spray system, which provides even coating and optimum coverage. Primer, intermediate, and finish coat options are selected based on the needs of the project and include durable protection systems such as epoxy and polyurethane. Special attention is given to environmental compliance, using only paints that conform to the latest global safety and sustainability standards.
  5. Quality Control
    ○ Testing: Rigorous quality checks at each production stage, including dimensional accuracy, weld integrity, and surface finish.
    ○ Certifications: Products are certified to meet international standards such as ASTM, BS, and ISO.
  6. Packing and Delivery
    ○ Efficient Packing: Correct labeling and packing of the parts should allow immediate identification with an easy course of re-assembling.
    ○ Logistics Expertise: On-site delivery at the right time at the construction sites for smooth execution of the project.
  7. Site Assembly
    ○ Ease of Installation: Pre-engineered components are so designed that these could be easily assembled on-site in minimum time, thereby saving much construction time and consequently reducing labor costs.
