Concept, Classification, and Functional Role of Secondary Steelwork
Secondary steelwork plays a vital supporting role in modern construction, complementing the primary structural system of a building or industrial facility. While primary steelwork is responsible for carrying the main structural loads such as gravity, wind, and seismic forces, secondary steelwork ensures that these loads are effectively distributed and that the structure functions safely, efficiently, and as intended. Despite often being overlooked, it is essential for stability, serviceability, and constructability in steel-framed structures.
