Fabricating a PFC beam and shelf plate

- Episode 2 in our work shop as i fabricate up a 200 x 90 PFC beam with a 200 x 10 shelf plate. We use nearly all of our Piher clamps on this job to help fight heat distortion and things straight.
You had me at "sometimes it feels like you're pissing up hill". Subscribed!
You've got the awesome sauce.
😊😊😊😊Hello my friend, your work is one of the best engineering works, but you receive little admiration
Loving your videos so far. This is shaping up to be a great channel. I'm just learning to weld and would love a masterclass from someone with your experience. UA-cam needs more people like you.
Thank you very much Sean. Makes it worth all the time to make the videos when you get nice comments like this. 👍🏻👍🏻
Love seeing work like this, was what I started out doing when I was younger. Done all kinds of things since then. Appreciate the hard work you put in to do the vids, so I can show the kid's what real work looks like.
Haha your right. I thinks it’s harder doing the videos than it is doing the work. I have to think a lot more about the cancer than I do the steel 😂. Glad you like the videos mate. Cheers
@@semmenssteelfabrication2315 I believe that, most people say the editing of the video that can be a pain. You definitely make look easy but then after years of doing it come second nature with things. Well you got a air flow system so your doing best to keep that cancer away, but I have work in some place that definitely shortened my life lol.
Great that you take the time to explain the maths and the reason behind what you're doing mate
Your welcome mate. Some people may find it unnecessary but if it handy for some people then it’s worth doing for me. Cheers pal
Adam, can you do a video in future about anchoring steel beams into various different surfaces. Great vid by the way
Yep that’s fine mate. I will try and incorporate it into some installation videos
Great video. As a structural engineer it's interesting to see the fabrication processes.
I guess in 99% of the time you guys never get to see what you design made or installed. Hopefully we can all learn from each other. I have a really good relationship with one of the main engineers we see drawings from and love to speak with them about jobs so as to better understand the reasons and criteria that lead to different designs being used in different situations.
Hi sir such a nice information for a steel related. I appreciate for you
Really enjoyed the video Adam. Good to see you showing the welder settings in amps instead of inches/min, it's helpful to a numpty like me 😉 Thanks for sharing.
I just don’t ever bother with inches per minute so no worries there mate. Will always try and convey it in an easy to understand way if I can. 👍🏻
Thanks Adam 👍
Awesome vid mate ! Well setup and clear and in depth, hope to see many more like this one!
Cheers dude. Thanks very much
Mad respect! Love the science behind it
Thanks pal, I am aiming to keep making a playlist of all the different things we come up against and share any info I have or things we have found to work and hopefully some people will find it helpful
Got yourself a new subscriber. Nice work . Clean workshop and a nice Mag base 👌
Thank you buddy. I do always try and keep the workshop as tidy as possible. It’s a lot easier to work when it’s cleaned and brushed up a couple times a week for sure. 👍🏻
Another great video Adam! I want to be like you when I grow up! 😘
Haha your already taller than me ya giant. You and Robin can have a day being a welder when you come down 👍🏻
Great videos Thanks for sharing
Great stuff Adam 👍
Cheers pal
Great work
@Semmens steel fabrication.... Appreciated this video. I light bulb went on in my head regarding how to solve a transition in a frame that I've been laying out in my head. Did this frame end up going into one of Robin Clevett's projects? I'd really like to see the install and raising of this frame.
When serving my time as a plater we were always told to measure from one datum face you measured in 55mm from top flange then 55 from bottom flange there are rolling tolerances on all rolled steel sections this could vary over the length of your PFC thus giving you different centres at the other end
On this one though as i needed a top and bottom line to stagger the bolts i am more concerned that they are 55mm in from the edges on both sides to allow me clearance for the bolts than i am about them being equidistant from each other. Other applications i would do exactly as you mention and measure from one datum. Good spot though mate. Cheers dude
Know the feeling about galvanisers, nothing ever comes back how you send it
Haha I always fear it returning from them and wondering how badly bent up it is. Drives me mad.
@@semmenssteelfabrication2315Yeah we have had stuff go missing before still haven't found it, it's so frustrating. Who do you use? Or do you prefer not to say.
Great video! I’m mobile welding at the moment and I’m trying to get more structural steel jobs. Would be cool to see how you market your business/ and how you make connections to get these jobs.
Thanks mate. If I am honest other than my social media videos I don’t advertise at all. It’s just been word of mouth and trying to put customer service and quality as my highest priorities. Other people will be faster and no doubt cheaper but that doesn’t always make for the best end product I found and it’s something I have stuck with and it’s served me well so far. Keep up the good work mate and you will get to where you want to be.
Thank you man!
Loving the videos! Looking forward to seeing more as they roll out. 👍 can I ask for a link to those clamps you work with? Or a spelling of the brand name as I can find them online. Thanks.
More videos please!
Εισαι ο καλυτερος.
What sort of foundation did you have to put in for the crane ?
Noooo,only work from one flange mate. If there's any discrepancies in the width of the Web like there can be at times, your hole centres will be wrong. Depends what tolerance you're working to but if you get into that habit you can't go wrong.
Structural normally has a +\- of 2mm, should be alright but yeah. He should've marked both lines from one side so the hole centers are right. Never seen someone use a chalk line for marking out a pfc before.
😅😅😅😅😅😅I think you need a little music for a little welding noise and motivation as well
Looks like you need a tool belt lad! 😉
Do you know of any good ones 😜😜
pulse welding material that thick?
Yeah it runs really nice, the machine has all the settings for running pulse on thicker materials and i has cut and acid etch tested it and the depth of fusion is really nice.
What do you use to mark your steel lad?
I just use a draper carbide scribe. I will try and find it’s proper name and stick it in the next video but if you search draper scribe on Amazon it should come up. 👍🏻
