  • 💡 Hot rolled vs cold rolled - what's the difference? 💡 Ever wondered why some buildings use hot rolled steel while others use cold rolled? The difference is in the manufacturing process and the intended use. 🛠 Hot rolled - Heated and shaped at extreme temperatures - Stronger and more durable for large, heavy-load structures - Can handle high stress and extreme conditions 🛠 Cold rolled - Rolled at room temperature for a more precise finish - Ideal for lightweight, smaller structures - More customisable for prefabrication and modular builds #HotRolledSteel #SteelComparison #ConstructionTips

  • Why we 🖤 hot-rolled steel When it comes to large-scale agricultural and industrial buildings, choosing the right material is key. Hot rolled steel is a top choice because of its superior strength, durability, and resistance to environmental conditions. 💡 How is hot rolled steel made? Heated to over 1,700°F (925°C), making it easier to shape into large, load-bearing beams. As it cools, the steel normalises, reducing internal stresses and making it tougher and more resistant to cracking. The final product has enhanced structural integrity, making it ideal for buildings that need to withstand heavy loads and harsh conditions. ✅ Perfect for large-span structures, barns, and industrial units ✅ Withstands heavy wind, snow, and temperature fluctuations ✅ Cost-effective over time due to its durability

  • Finding your pot of gold: Why hot-rolled steel is the lucky charm of construction🍀 This St. Patrick's Day, we're reflecting on what brings true "luck" to construction projects. At Robinsons, we believe it's not about finding four-leaf clovers - it's about choosing materials that deliver reliable excellence every time 💪 🌈 The gold standard No need to chase rainbows when you've got hot-rolled steel. Its superior tensile strength and remarkable durability come from being formed at temperatures above 900°C - creating a consistent grain structure that stands firm through decades of British weather! ☘️ Triple the luck Like the shamrock's three leaves, our hot-rolled steel structures offer a trinity of benefits: unmatched structural integrity, flexible design possibilities, and long-term value that keeps giving back year after year.

  • Another successful project wrapped up! 🏗️ This multipurpose livestock building, completed just outside of Girvan, has been designed with efficiency and animal welfare in mind 🏡🐑 ✅ Optimised Ventilation – The carefully selected cladding ensures maximum airflow, creating a comfortable environment for livestock. ✅ Heatguard 50 Roofing – This innovative material allows natural light into the building while reflecting heat, thanks to embedded metal pigments. The result? A well-lit space that stays cooler in warmer months. Another quality steel building designed and built by the team 👷♂️💪 #Robinsons #SteelBuildings #LivestockBuilding #AgriculturalConstruction #Girvan #BuiltToLast
