Age Steel® provides specialized fabrication services for steel pipe racks supporting piping systems in industrial, oil & gas, utility, and infrastructure facilities. Our pipe rack fabrication is focused on structural stability, dimensional accuracy, and seamless integration with piping, cable trays, and mechanical systems, ensuring reliable performance under operational and environmental loads.
Our fabrication facilities are equipped to manufacture a wide range of pipe rack structures, including: - Main pipe rack frames with multi-bay and multi-level configurations - Columns, beams, cantilevers, and transverse frames - Pipe support beams and sleeper assemblies - Integrated supports for cable trays and utility services
Each pipe rack is fabricated in accordance with project-specific layouts, loading criteria, and modularization requirements.
Pipe rack fabrication is executed based on detailed shop drawings derived from approved IFC documents and piping layouts. Special attention is given to alignment, tolerances, and interface coordination with piping disciplines.
Detailing includes: - Grid lines, elevations, and rack spacing - Member sizes, connection details, and expansion gaps - Pipe support locations and load transfer points - Bolt grades, weld symbols, and inspection requirements
Fabrication activities are performed under controlled shop conditions to ensure consistency and traceability throughout production.
Manufacturing processes include: - Precision cutting, drilling, and profiling of structural members - Assembly of columns, beams, and bracing systems - Structural welding by qualified welders in accordance with approved WPS - Dimensional verification and fit-up checks during fabrication
Pipe racks are fabricated with defined interfaces to accommodate piping installation, thermal movement, and future expansion.
Interface considerations include: - Pipe shoe and support beam coordination - Provision for expansion joints and sliding supports - Lifting points and transportation constraints for modular racks
Surface preparation is carried out in accordance with project specifications and environmental exposure requirements to ensure long-term performance of the applied protective system.
Age Steel® pipe racks are commonly fabricated for: - Process plants and refineries - Oil & gas facilities and terminals - Power, water, and utility plants - Industrial complexes and infrastructure projects
All pipe rack fabrication activities are governed by a structured quality management system. Inspections cover material traceability, fabrication accuracy, welding quality, and dimensional compliance prior to delivery.
