Promisteel Dispatches Custom Steel Columns For 101 Tower Dubai Basement Project

Promisteel has shipped the full batch of custom steel columns for the basement structure of the 101 Tower Dubai project. The columns have left the factory for transport to port, marking completion of the factory dispatch stage ahead of onward sea shipment.

Fabricated to project drawings, the steel columns are intended to be encased in concrete during subsequent construction. The dispatch photographs show the actual components loaded on flatbed trucks, including rows of headed studs and the fabricated section details.

Steel Columns Fabricated to Project Drawings

This order reflects a practical requirement in overseas structural steel procurement: obtaining fabricated components that follow a project's drawings rather than selecting a standard stock item. For this basement application, Promisteel supplied custom steel columns manufactured for the specified project.

The loaded components show the section form, connection plates and stud arrangement incorporated into the fabricated columns. For overseas buyers, these details highlight the importance of coordinating the steel fabrication scope with the intended construction application.

For buyers planning a similar order, the starting point is a clear drawing package and an agreed supply scope. Promisteel's guide to drawings for a steel structure fabrication quote explains the information to prepare before requesting pricing.

Prepared for Subsequent Concrete Encasement

The columns are intended for subsequent concrete encasement, so their visible appearance differs from steelwork supplied with an exposed architectural finish. The factory photographs show rust coloration on the steel surfaces and rows of welded headed studs.

Headed studs are used in steel–concrete construction to provide mechanical connection and transfer shear between the steel and concrete. The connection arrangement for an individual project follows its engineering design.

For concrete-encased steelwork, surface acceptance and any treatment before concreting follow the project requirements. Buyers should confirm the required surface condition together with the fabrication scope.

From Factory Dispatch to the Next Shipping Stage

With the full batch dispatched from the factory, the columns are moving to the port stage of their export journey. Onward sea shipment will follow the port stage, with vessel loading and sea departure forming the next shipping milestones.
