Tata Structura Hollow Steel Sections - The Future Of Construction

Tata structura

Tata Steel offers hollow steel products that are used in the construction of bridges, building frames, airports, highways, warehouses, storage facilities, home parking sheds and more. The products are a leading example of innovation and have redefined the nature of building materials.

The products offer several benefits which make them the preferred choice for engineers, architects and builders. The steel hollow products are offered under the brand name ‘Tata Structura’ which was launched in 2005. The brand expanded its offering and footprint to suit the needs of modern construction. The new grades of steel were introduced YSt 310 and YSt 355 to meet the market demands and guarantee stability.

Advantages of using hollow sections

• The steel hollow products have outstanding concentric strength, which allows them to support heavy loads and withstand various stresses. It has properties like a high ratio of gyration, good lateral stiffness, excellent torsional stiffness and low wind resistance. This makes them an ideal choice for the house's main gate.
• The hollow products manufactured by the brand are stronger but lighter which reduces the volume of steel required to one-third. This helps to reduce not only the cost but also the handling, transportation and labour. This leads to an economical and efficient construction process.
• The hollow products have a narrower profile compared to solid steel sections. This lowers the amount of surface exposed to rust-causing agents like moisture and salt water. Corrosion resistance leads to structural longevity. Galvanising treatments can further improve their corrosion resistance.
• The steel products are easy to fabricate and customise as per the specific project needs. You can use the cutting, bending and welding techniques and create intricate shapes and designs. It reduces the design loading time, time required for finishing and improves the project's overall effectiveness.
• The hollow products are flexible and adaptable, which allows the architects to create unique designs. You can easily make open spaces, bent structures, traditional designs and more. You can create structures that meet the aesthetic and functional needs.

Architectural projects

The brand has been a most dependable partner in various national projects. The brand’s products were used in the construction of airports of the nation. The products are flexible, which is required for modern construction projects. The hollow steel products were used in the construction of the Metro rail project. The pleasing and functional Metro stations have become a part of the city’s landscape.

The products were used in the construction of the Bangalore airport, Indira Gandhi stadium in Delhi, Trump Towers in Mumbai and others. As the brand is reputed and the products are strong, the steel hollow products were used in the construction of monuments like the Biswa Bangla Gate in Kolkata.

The different products offered are rectangular hollow sections, circular hollow sections, square hollow sections, galvanised hollow sections and Tata EZYFIT. The hollow sections products offer enhanced structural integrity as they remain strong and secure under various loads. The products have consistent material strength, high ductility, improved corrosion resistance and even length, thickness and dimensions.
