The structures are simply an assembly of materials used to support loads. They are made of solid strong materials such as steel, wood, iron, stone, brick or concrete. Today there is a tendency to make structures out of various metals because they are lightweight and malleable and because of the excellent structural features of metals such as aluminum, iron and steel. There are two major forces interacting on the structures – compressive stress and tensile stress. Compressive stress makes the material shorten while tensile stress on the other hand makes the material lengthen. The steel structures made at B&W in Buja are intended for the building and mechanical engineering markets. The most requested steel structures at B&W are lattice girders, metallic mesh and cages made of electrowelded steel to ensure higher and longer lasting quality.
By availing itself of technicians specialized in mechanical engineering, B&W offers the design and manufacture of industrial machinery for steelworking and for the production of steel structures.
