STEEL FOR BUILDING ALTERATIONS, REPAIRS & TRADE PROJECTS

Working on a property or building project in Auchenflower?

Super Steel supplies steel for renovation work, property maintenance, fabrication, repairs and general construction requirements throughout Brisbane.

Whether you’re replacing an existing steel component, arranging materials for an alteration or ordering sections for a trade project, we can help you source the steel specified for the job.

Our range includes RHS, pipe, beams, plate, merchant bar, sheet and fencing products. Cutting and selected processing are available for suitable material.

You can request a quote using a drawing, material list or the dimensions and quantities you’ve already established.

Call 07 3274 3111 or contact Super Steel to discuss your requirements.

STEEL FOR EXISTING BUILDINGS & PROPERTY WORK

Alterations and repairs often involve working around an existing structure rather than starting with a completely new design.

You may need steel for a replacement component, a gate repair, a maintenance job or building work carried out to an existing plan.

For these projects, identifying the correct material is important.

Before ordering, check whether you have:

  • The original drawing or material specification
  • The required steel profile and dimensions
  • The material thickness and finish
  • The lengths and quantities needed
  • Any preparation required before installation

For structural work, follow the relevant engineering documentation. A steel section shouldn’t be substituted simply because another product has a similar shape or external size.

Super Steel supplies material to the specified requirements; engineering design and approval should be handled by appropriately qualified professionals.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT STEEL PRODUCT

Different projects call for different steel products. Super Steel’s range includes the following categories.

Steel Category

Selected merchant bar products are also available in hot-dipped and DuraGal finishes.

For oval rail, the published range includes four galvanised sizes to AS/NZS 1163 grade.

If you’re unsure whether a particular product is available, send the full specification and we’ll check the options.

See the Super Steel product range for more information.

WHEN YOU DON’T NEED FULL STEEL LENGTHS

For repairs and alterations, the material required may be shorter than the original stock length.

Super Steel operates several saws at its Coopers Plains facility, including equipment for cutting larger bundles of steel.

Cutting is available for suitable RHS, pipe, beams and channels.

If you need material cut before delivery, provide the required dimensions with the order.

For example, a request for RHS should identify the section size, wall thickness, finish, number of pieces and finished length of each piece.

Where the job involves several different sections, make sure the cutting instructions clearly identify which material they belong to.

If you’re working from a fabrication drawing or cutting schedule, that document can be used as the basis of the enquiry.

PREPARATION FOR SELECTED STEEL PRODUCTS

Some material may require additional work before it’s ready for the next stage of the project.

Super Steel offers cropping and punching for applicable flat bar, round bar and angle products.

Selected pipe-processing services include:

  • Swaging
  • Crimping
  • Cranking
  • Drilling
  • Threading

Pipe threading is available within the published 15NB–100NB range, subject to the product and processing requirements. NB means Nominal Bore.

When requesting processing, specify the steel product and the operation required. For drilling or punching, include the relevant dimensions and positions from the drawing or fabrication specification.

The team can then confirm whether the requested preparation is suitable for the material.

REPLACING EXISTING STEEL COMPONENTS

Replacement work deserves particular care because the original material specification may not always be obvious.

For a non-structural component, check the profile, dimensions, thickness and finish of the existing material. If you have the original drawings or purchase records, use them to identify the replacement.

For structural members or load-bearing components, the replacement should be determined from appropriate engineering documentation.

Super Steel can quote the specified material, including applicable cutting or processing, once the requirements are established.

WORKING FROM DRAWINGS OR A MATERIAL SCHEDULE

If a builder, fabricator or contractor has already prepared the steel requirements, there’s no need to describe the whole project again.

A drawing or schedule may contain the section sizes, lengths, grades, quantities and preparation instructions needed for a quote.

Before sending it, check that any revisions are current and that the material requirements are clearly identified.

For mixed orders, include all relevant products in the same enquiry so supply and preparation can be considered together.

Where a project requires engineering approval or structural design decisions, those should be resolved through the appropriate project professionals before the steel is ordered.

Its central operation in Coopers Plains supports steel supply, cutting and selected processing for customers across Brisbane, including Auchenflower.

For customers working on alterations or maintenance, this means the required steel and applicable preparation can be discussed as part of one order.
