Allerton Steel Fabricated Beams & Boxes
Posted on 03 December 2024
Allerton Steel have manufactured a large Crane base for a project in London. Extensive machining was required on all the mating face which was completed in-house on our large machining centre - which has an 11m moving bed to allow machining of 2 perpendicular surfaces 2.5m high, 2.5m deep and 11m long.
Material Grade: S275J0
Main Beam Dimensions: 2460mm tall x 400mm wide and 7010mm long.
Thickness: Flange 80mm, Web 30mm
Full Penetration welds between webs and flanges.
Stiffeners: 15mm thick welded with 9mm continuous fillet welds.
Total weight of the complete assembly: 40,556kg.
Trial assembly carried out in our workshop before delivery to site.
