The entire fabrication process starts with an architect’s design that is technically interpreted by the consulting engineer or the JSSL in-house design team and broken down in detail into steel construction drawings.

The drawings are converted to a virtual 3D model of the structure using the state-of-the-art Tekla software and then these are electronically fed into the CNC controlled machines on the shop floor.

In the raw material yard at the JSSL factory in Bellary, JSSL’s own information management software is used to manage material take off on a job specific basis. The factory consists of Band Saws to accurately cut beams to the required length. The multi axis drilling machine simultaneously drills holes in both flanges and webs.

JSSL is the only company to install online abrasive shot blasting machines in the fabrication lines. It can clean the surface of steel materials to SA2.5 standard. The blasting is done prior to welding and painting to ensure high quality fabrication.

The Bit Shop complements the fabrication line. The Shop contains computer controlled gas and plasms cutting machines, angle cropping machine, bevelling machines & stamping and marking machines. All fittings created by the Bit Shop are also shot blasted to SA2.5 standards.

JSSL uses one-of-a-kind motorised Bogey lines capable of carrying a 20 ton load which pass through an assembly area, welding area and painting area with inspection being carried out after each step. The painting is done within 8 hours of the shot blasting thus ensuring optimum quality and comes with a guarantee of 15 years.

Indisec is the name of a new and innovative family of structural steel product for the steel construction sector in India. Indisec is the unrivalled market leader in the design and fabrication of long span cellular and bespoke plated beams which are not readily available in the market. It is a new technology which can substitute rolled sections for lighter, stronger and longer spanning plated sections. JSSL has the complete knowledge to design and manufacture such plated sections.

JSSL also has in-house metal deck profiling machines. It can manufacture 2 set of profile sheets TR60 and TR80 catering to different requirements of multi storey constructions. This can provide longer spans of upto 4.5 m and create composite slabs which save 50% reinforcement and 30% concrete. The decking also reduces the hook time during erection and hence ensures fast track construction.

The steelwork is fabricated, loaded and finally delivered to site in an erectable sequence.
