David Moore explains how new guidance can promote sustainable steel construction.

Connecting a new riverside development meant traversing a number of significant infrastructure assets including rail lines, a freight yard, HS1 tunnels, roads and a waterway.

The first major steel section of the £76m Gull Wing bridge being constructed by Farrans in Lowestoft has arrived from Belgium.

A specialist rigging team has been working to ‘re-mesh’ London Zoo’s Snowdon Aviary before it re-opens in summer this year.

Structural hollow steel sections – commonly known as tubes – have been an unsung structural engineering success story of recent years. CM reports.

Cynics may joke that if COP26 merely generates a lot of hot air, then that would at least provide a carbon-free alternative for power generation. But like all of the best jokes, timing is critical to how we collectively address climate change, writes Guy Lawson.

CM looks at some inventive applications for structural steel, from a new wharf for the British Antarctic Survey to a state-of-the-art training ground for a Premier League football club

New guidance and training will improve steel’s resistance to both fire and corrosion, writes Dr David Moore

Retrofitting steel-framed buildings with intumescent coatings must follow strict standards

While 2020 was labelled ‘the worst year ever’ by many, sentiments in the modular steel sector are rather different

Landsec’s 21 Moorfields development – over a live Tube station – has employed numerous digital tools to deliver a complex structural design and construction methodology
