Fabricated Stair Frames

We are currently manufacturing box sections as part of a Stair assembly for a Reservoir.

The frame is manufactured out of 150×150 RHS, hot dip galvanised and then delivered and installed at the customers site.

We weld using the following methods

  • MIG – used in the workshop as the most cost effective fabrication method for mild steel, stainless steel and aluminium components.
  • TIG – used with lighter gauge stainless steel and aluminium fabrications but can also be needed for welding aluminium castings, etc.
  • Electrode – used for welding situations where the area to be welded can’t be easily cleaned or for site welding where wind conditions can make MIG and TIG welding impractical. Also used for welding the likes of cast iron.
  • Silver Solder – commonly used for brass fittings, copper tube, etc and is also useful for joining dissimilar metals such as brass to stainless steel.

So if you have steel fabrication and repairs to carry out, talk to the team at Better!

Plant and Equipment Repairs

Equipment RepairsPlant and Equipment Repairs on Pile Drilling Equipment were recently carried out by us..

  • The Machine was damaged and required repairs.
  • We replaced a rolled steel plate section of the bottom frame along with repairing or replacing mount brackets and cover plates.
  • To allow the repair, we had to remove necessary hydraulic hoses and electrical wiring which were replaced after the steelwork repairs were done.
  • The machine was repainted after repairs were completed.

Steel Fabrication and Repairs

Steel Fabrication and repairsHere at Better Engineering, we specialise in steel fabrication and repairs.

We recently fabricated a large top section for a sand bin for a manufacturing plant.

It was manufactured from carbon steel, and fabrication included a rolled cylinder, lifting lugs, inspection point and machined flange for pipe connection.

After manufacturing, the unit was sandblasted and painted.

Stainless Steel Fabrication

Stainless Steel Fabrication

Stainless Steel Discharge Pipe

We recently completed a complex Stainless Steel Fabrication project for a large Pump Supply company.

The job was the manufacture of a Discharge pipe, which was to be cast into concrete. At the base of the discharge pipe is attached a large submersible pump. The pipe work was manufactured form 316 Grade Stainless Steel. Wall thickness was 8mm.

This discharge pipe was built from scratch from drawings supplied to us by our customer.

The tube was cut to size and rolled offsite by a specialty pipe bending company.

If you have a Stainless Steel fabrication project coming up, talk to Grant Brecknell or Glen Reeve from Better Engineering.

Footing Reinforcing Cage

Footing Reinforcement CageWe work with Telecommunication Infrastructure providers on a range of projects across Queensland. Here, we are featuring a Footing Reinforcing Cage that was installed as part of the footings in a Telecommunications Tower.

The reinforcing cage was fabricated from deformed reinforcing bar for the frame.

The cage included a hold down bolt cage using machined high tensile hold down bolts.

After fabrication was complete we organized delivery to site.

Due to the size of the cage, it was necessary for us to sort an out of hours wide load delivery with a police escort.

At the same time we organized lifting into position in the footing excavation using a crane on site.
