These huge structural steel beams will be part of the Rockyview Hospital renovations.
Arched I beams have been curved to expand the front entrance and expand the area for shelter from weather.
Transporting the huge steel girders is only half the battle as they will be needed to me lifted into place and welded on site by the TWS Team to ensure they are properly installed.

Structural welding is more than just creating the welds that hold a steel structure together.
Using structural welding techniques welders create frameworks for things like bridges, staircases in buildings, shipbuilding and most heavy industries. It is also used to cut and repairs steel girders and beams.
There is however another aspect of the creation of structural steel framework that rarely gets mentioned. That is, when built of site, getting the steel structure into place, particularly if its final resting place is on the top of a 27 floor building, can be a daunting task.
Like this guard rail, riding high above the city skyline, for an outdoor restaurant on the 25th floor of a high rise. Raised to the roof by a heavy crane the TWS Welding Calgary crew continued to anchor the sections in place to create the surrounding guard rail.

A mezzanine is basically a structural area that extends over a specific floor space. They are often used to create open space that can be decorated to add ambience to unused floor space in places like office buildings, hotels or cultural centers.
These huge structural curved steel beams are being used to create the arched ceiling in a mezzanine currently being constructed at Calgary Hospital.
Once TWS Calgary installs the beams they will help open the ceiling and give the area a greater sense of space.

Managing and manipulating large steel beams at any level can not only be difficult but dangerous as well. Add to that epic smoke clouding the atmosphere from nearby forest fires, it not only makes the job dangerous but possibly hazardous to ones health.
TWS continues to update the security guard rail on the 29th floor of this new hotel in downtown Calgary and while we are almost done, it hasn’t been easy.
These vertical columns made of 6″X10″ HSS steel are 8 feet tall and must be secure and manually anchored to the outside wall. A job that takes stamina and some nerve.
Stay tuned to see how the crew at TWS Calgary finishes up this structural steel guard rail.

TWS Calgary has created the guard rail for the 29th floor of this new hotel in down town Calgary.
Let’s be honest, it’s on the roof and yes it’s a daunting view but TWS Calgary’s team is used to constructing structural steel at heights.
The vertical columns made of 6″X10″ HSS are 8 feet tall and tied in around the perimeter with 4X4 girders. These items are pre-built in the TWS shop, transported to site and then flown into place on the 29th floor with a Wolff 116B US crane.
It’s a precarious job that takes skill and finesse and once fenced in will keep those using the roof in the future, safe and sound.
