Structural Steel in Sydney

Steel beams, posts, lintels and portal frames installed to the engineer’s spec and tied cleanly into the timber frame.

Structural Steel you can build on

Modern homes lean on steel — long spans, big openings and cantilevers all need beams, posts and lintels that timber alone cannot carry. AWA installs structural steel to the engineer’s specification and ties it cleanly into the timber frame.

Because we frame the timber as well, the steel and timber work together from day one — bolt-downs, bearing points and connections are all set out so the load path is right and the finish is clean.

What’s included

  • Universal beams (UB), columns (UC) and PFCs
  • Steel posts, lintels and goal-post frames
  • Portal frames and long-span beams
  • Bearing points, base plates and bolt-down set-out
  • Steel-to-timber connections done to spec
  • Installed to the structural engineer’s drawings

The engineer’s spec is the law

Steel is designed by the structural engineer, so we build to the schedule — sizes, grades, bearing and connections exactly as drawn. No substitutions, no guesswork.

Clean timber-to-steel transitions

Bearers landing on beams, studs over posts, lintels bolted through — we set these out so the timber frame sits right on the steel and everything lines up.

FAQ

Structural Steel — questions

Do you supply the steel or install builder-supplied steel?

We can install steel supplied by the builder or fabricator, and coordinate delivery and craning where needed.

Can you handle the beam over a big rear opening?

Yes — long-span beams over alfresco and rear openings are common on our jobs; we set the bearing and tie-in to the engineer’s detail.
