Steel Structures

At HK Yapi Insaat, we produce lightweight, durable and fast-assembly steel construction structures for factories, warehouses, hangars, sports halls, shopping centers and commercial facilities. With 25 years of national and international experience, we manage every step - from design to fabrication, from assembly to delivery - on a turnkey basis.

Steel structures are one of today's most preferred building systems thanks to their high strength, light weight and fast-assembly advantage. With the ability to span large openings, be disassembled and re-erected, and their eco-friendly recyclability, they offer a solution that is both economical and sustainable.

Why Steel Structures?

  • Fast fabrication and assembly process
  • Ability to span large openings
  • Lightweight structural system, lower foundation costs
  • High resistance to earthquakes
  • Structure can be disassembled and re-erected
  • Eco-friendly, 100% recyclable material

Our Scope of Services

Turnkey services we offer on steel structure projects:

  • Structural design and steel calculations
  • 3D modeling and detail drawings
  • Steel profile fabrication and welding works
  • Surface protection and coating applications
  • On-site assembly and erection
  • Roof and facade cladding systems
  • Thermal, water and fire insulation
  • Turnkey handover and commissioning

Application Areas

We successfully apply our steel structure solutions across a wide range of uses, including industrial facilities and factories, logistics warehouses and bonded warehouses, hangars and aircraft maintenance centers, sports halls and indoor swimming pools, exhibition and fair venues, shopping centers, agricultural buildings and greenhouse systems, parking structures and multi-story steel buildings.

Frequently Asked Questions About Steel Structures

A steel structure is a building type whose structural system is made of steel profiles. Steel elements manufactured in a factory are transported to the site and assembled using bolted and welded connections, enabling a much faster construction process compared to traditional buildings.

Steel structures are built much faster than reinforced concrete. A medium-sized steel structure project, including fabrication, can typically be completed within 2-4 months. At HK Yapi, we run factory fabrication and on-site assembly in parallel to minimize the timeline.

Yes, steel structures can absorb seismic energy thanks to their elastic behavior. Steel's high tensile strength and ductility make it one of the safest building types in earthquake regions. All of our projects are calculated in compliance with the current earthquake code.

Steel structures are generally more economical than reinforced concrete for wide-span, single-story buildings. Because they are lightweight, foundation costs are lower, and fast assembly reduces labor costs. For multi-story buildings, a comparative analysis is needed based on the specific project. Since HK Yapi can execute both systems, we recommend the solution best suited to your project.

Unprotected steel can rust over time. However, surface protection treatments such as sandblasting, primer and a top coat of paint extend the steel's lifespan by decades. At HK Yapi, we apply factory surface protection treatment to all of our steel elements.

Yes, one of the biggest advantages of steel structures is that they can be disassembled and re-erected at another location. Structures assembled with bolted connection systems can be easily dismantled and relocated when needed. This is a major advantage in particular for investments on leased land.
