PRODUCTION PROCESS


               The process involved in producing FCF wall panels are:

               Design:  Experience engineer with designated software program will design

               entire building with CFS system. The program will produce wall panel's detail
               data.


               Roll-Forming: Wall panel's data insert to roll-forming machine’s computer by
               operator and start producing steel studs by bending and folding flat sheet of
               galvanized steel which coming by de-coiling the galvanized steel coil. Machine

               produce all studs related to a wall panel and mark them by printing codes on
               every stud.


               Panelizing: The software also produce shop drawings. Crew of two or three
               (depend the size of wall or volume of work) will pick those studs one by one and


               fabricate wall panel by screwing studs together. According to design, fasteners
               also will use in different section of the wall panel.

               Quality Control: In this area QC manager will check the wall panel according to
               shop drawing to make sure all screws and fasteners all in the right place and

               wall is dimensionally square.

               Loading:  According to erection drawing, wall panels stacked at loading area by

               gantry crane on trailer and ship to the jobsite.

               Open Web Steel Floor Joist: Light gauge joist production process is like wall
               panels.

               Galvanized Steel Coil:  There are many companies supply steel coil around the

               world. Galvanized steel sheet is widely used in automotive and home appliance
               manufacturing. Turkey, South Korea, Japan and China are the key player in the
               market. Some have local representative in Dubai and Doha.



               Screws and Fasteners: there are few types of screw will be used in CFS system
               which is common in steel industry and there are many suppliers in the region.



                       ENVIRONMENTAL / RESOURCE IMPACTS


                 Fabricating wall panels is zero emission and produce no waste. All the knockouts


               from machines in plant and alteration pieces at site will be collected and send
               back to mills to produce new steel.
