For Steel Beams Hemmant, talk to Ace Posts and Beams. Hemmant's transport yards, workshops and industrial lots east of Cannon Hill are built around trucks, and the buildings have to take the loads that come with them. Heavy beams, tall columns and sound footings matter more here than a tidy finish. We cut and pre-drill PFCs, universal beams and columns to your engineer's drawings, and can help arrange soil testing.
A truck bay or workshop opening carries its load every day. Wide roller doors and clear spans need beams sized by an engineer and cut accurately, with base plates that sit flat on the footings. Send us the drawings and we'll cut to the engineer's lengths and drill plates and connections.
Low-lying ground near the creek is a reason to settle ground conditions before ordering steel. Soil testing tells your engineer what the footings must do, and footing design decides column and plate details. We can help arrange soil testing so the steel schedule is based on real ground information.
Industrial work has costs that are easy to underestimate. We quote free from your drawings, and where soil information or plans are missing, we can point you to the right first step before you order steel.

Raw, prime painted or hot-dipped galvanised, all with pre-drilling available. Yard structures, canopies and anything open to the weather are best galvanised, particularly on low, damp ground. Enclosed interior steel can be primed.
Typically three days from order. Work-yard schedules are tight, so name the day your crew or crane is ready and we'll plan to it.
Cut to length and drilled for base plates and connections, so the frame is set out from the drawings, not adjusted on site.
We can help with architectural and engineering plans and soil testing, and explain where those fit before steel is ordered. Sizing and certification stay with your engineer.
Trade pricing on every order, including full frames of beams, columns, plates and bracing quoted as one package.
For workshops, truck bays, canopies and yard structures, our stock lines and options span:
A Hemmant frame typically pairs heavy beams with tall columns, base plates, bracing and deformed bar for footings. Custom fabrication is available where the design calls for a bracket or connection that isn't off the shelf.
Mostly steel for industrial and transport-related buildings: beams over wide doors, columns and bracing for workshops and truck bays, and steel for canopies and covered yards. Stock sizes and cut-to-measure lengths are both supplied.
Yes. We cut beams and columns to your engineer's drawings and drill for plates and connections. For a multi-part frame, send the erection order and we'll label to suit.
Universal beams and parallel flange channels for spans, with steel and rolled hollow section columns to match. Anything outside stock is made to measure.
Steel can be raw, prime painted or hot-dipped galvanised, with pre-drilling available. On open yard structures, galvanised holds up better to weather and damp ground. Where a specific coating system is required, tell us at quote stage.
Typically three days, more for galvanised steel. If soil testing or plans are still to come, sort those first, because the steel schedule depends on them.
Both. Industrial lots suit truck delivery, but tell us about the entry, any unloading equipment on site and a contact for the day. Collection from Eagle Farm is available too.
Hemmant is part of Brisbane's port-side industrial belt, which we supply from Eagle Farm. Cannon Hill is next door and on our regular circuit. Suburbs we regularly supply include:
Hemmant lies east of Cannon Hill along Wynnum Road, an area of industrial lots, transport yards and older houses close to the port road network. Much of it is low-lying land near Bulimba Creek, which is why ground conditions come first when anything heavy is being built.
Send drawings, finishes and the date your crew is ready, along with site access details. We'll quote the steel and, if it helps, point you to plans and soil testing. Request your free Steel Beams Hemmant quote today.
