| 22). Will you provide design details before supplying / erecting your structure? |
Yes, Vardhman Building Systems will submit detailed design calculations
and drawings to client for approval prior to fabrication of the
building. All comments received from client on the approval drawings are
incorporated by us in the final Erection Drawings and in fabrication.
|
| 23). What is the minimum thickness of your Primary members? |
Unless otherwise specified, the minimum thickness for built-up sections
is 5 mm which complies with ISO and AISC code too. However, if a
client specifies any other minimum thickness, Vardhman will provide the
same.
|
| 24). What is the alternative of Rod bracing if they are to be avoided? |
We can provide angle bracing instead of rod bracing when required. At
walls when rod bracing is not allowed due to access or other reasons, we
will provide portal bracing as per design requirements.
|
| 25). How do you control temperature inside the building? |
Vardhman will provide insulation at roof and wall to achieve the
required temperature value. To control the temperature inside the building
beyond this value, requires the client to provide a suitably designed
HVAC system.
|
| 26). Please explain compatibility to fire resistance requirements of
main structural frames, covering etc..? Modification to existing structure
- Is it done by welding or bolting? |
Fire resistance on steel structure can be achieved by enclosing the
steel with a fire protection system. This can be done by spray application
of fire resistance coating on steel members or enclosing the steel
with gypsum board as per UL approved details. We will design the system
to achieve the required fire rating. To field stiffen an existing
structural member, it is normal practice to weld cover plates, angles, web
stiffeners, etc., as per design requirements. Vardhman Building Systems
can provide the required detail when requested.
|
27). What kind of maintenance is required on Vardhman's Pre-
Engineered
buildings? |
Vardhman provides maintenance instructions for the supplied buildings.
Generally maintenance is limited to periodic checking and cleaning of
roof and gutters. Also accessories and moving parts need periodic
maintenance. Thus we can say that Vardhman Buildings are almost maintenance
free.
