Steel structure factory buildings are characterized by their lightweight nature, low material consumption, rapid construction, and their ability to withstand earthquakes of a certain magnitude. This is indeed quite impressive. But regarding their earthquake resistance, how exactly do they achieve it, and which aspects play the primary role?

Firstly, in terms of structure, steel components can be connected using welding. This connection increases the load-bearing area, contributing to seismic resistance. Another connection method involves using high-strength bolts for fixation. This method may be superior to welding, achieving the same effect.

Horizontal bracing between columns and beams within the frame should be installed at regular intervals. Depending on the density of this bracing and the overall structure, it effectively supports the steel structure factory building. This creates a system of cross-bracing beams that, to a certain extent, can prevent the collapse of the building and is highly effective for seismic resistance. There needs to be coordinated action between these various bracing beams. In some areas, steel components can be installed at an angle of 30° to 60° to provide support, which also offers excellent seismic resistance.
