Pre-Engineered Steel Buildings for Metro Stations and Train Depot
   
Railway Platform Structure can easily be made for modernization of existing stations or for new construction .These stations can be designed in such a way that during day there is no requirement for energy for lighting hence reducing the power bill considerably .Steel buildings offer un-matched advantages for construction of Station buildings or Train Depots.
Advantages of Steel Metro Stations
Steel frames are faster to erect so the station can be completed faster
Buildings can be customized easily in terms of size and design to match specific requirements
Steel frame construction is more suitable to withstand lateral loads
No site storage or site fabrication space is required no problem to traffic moment
Application:
Metro stations
Platform Structures
Buildings

SS-2000 Roofing System
   

TRACDEK® SS-2000®, also known as TRACDEK® Vertical Leg Structural Standing Seam Roof System, blends the aesthetics of an architectural panel with the strength of a structural panel. These panels have good uplift ratings assuring the reliability of the roof and can go down to roof slopes of up to 1:50. The designer is thus afforded a flexible tool to meet any design challenge.

Architectural Structural Panel
TRACDEK® SS-2000® is a field seamed system that combines a slim rib with exceptional uplift resistance. This panel has been designed to withstand the most rigorous conditions. This systems features optional factory installed hot-melt mastic for low slope applications to ensure weather tight seams. Ribs are provided for added aesthetic value.

On-site Roll Forming
Facility of on-site roll forming eliminates panel end lap condition. Panels are manufactured ‘at-the-eaves’ enabling single length panels on long roof runs.

Industry Spokesperson: Architect Abhijeet Ray
   
Architect Abhijit Ray is one of the most reputed architects and has professional experience of over 40 years in Industrial projects, Housing, Hospitals and institutional buildings. He graduated from IIT Kharagpur, and then P.G Diploma from Erasmus University in Holland. He has been awarded Dutch Government fellowship in 1973, Certificate of Merit for Asia 1972 trade fair. He has worked with various reputed architects in Delhi and also served the government of India (C.P.W.D) and founded Abhijit Ray & Associated, a proprietary consultancy firm in 1982.

Mr. Abhijit Ray had been a past Chairman of Northern Chapter of the Indian Institute of Architects. He is actively associated with several organizations for development of the profession and represents the I.I.A in the revision of Notional Building Code (NBC).

Abhijit Ray & Associates is one of the leading architectural consultancy firm having expertise in industrial, residential and commercial projects. The firm also has made a distinct name for itself in designing institutional campuses.

Mr Ray feels composite steel building is the way ahead. Steel companies in India needs to develop a model for various sectors which will provide turnkey solution. For Example in residential sector a model design should made for residential plots of 100 Sq.yd, 200 sq.yd and 500 sq.yd with all detailed specifications; this will be beneficial as steel building do no cause pollution during construction. He says agencies like NGT have started penalizing contractors if raw material is staked outside the plot or if water curing results in excess water outside the plot , Steel building are fabricated at plant and are ideal solution for these problems.

As per him multistory Steel building in composite Structure fabricated in factories offer far superior quality than RCC construction but once the building is completed, a maintenance schedule should also be provide for next 30-40 year to ensure longevity of the building. The integration of various components with steel should be checked at regular intervals. He advises that the Steel Building Design & solution providers must factor in Green Building Design norms & factory and make the users aware of such aspects in the Building. The ventilation should be proper for occupants and design should check energy required for construction carbon foot print & what would be the embedded energy. By checking this, the building can be made more energy efficient.

He also wants to advice clients to provide correct specifications and usage of the building to steel building manufacturers for them to provide right design and solution and other sustainable inputs.
