Gabon Furnace Warehouse

Project Overview

Canglong Group delivered a customized steel structure warehouse project in Libreville, Gabon, for a customer operating a waste aluminum melting facility.

Unlike conventional storage buildings, this industrial warehouse was designed to support furnace-related operations, equipment handling, material movement, and daily production activities. The building combines large-span steel framing, crane support capability, and practical ventilation considerations for an industrial working environment.

Project Location: Libreville, Gabon
Building Type: Industrial Furnace Warehouse
Main Building Size: 36m × 42m × 11.2m
Additional Canopy: 8m × 42m × 7m
Structure System: Steel Frame Structure
Crane System: 5-ton Overhead Crane

Steel Structure Design for Industrial Production

Industrial buildings used for metal processing require more than basic storage functions. Structural design needs to consider equipment installation, material transportation, ventilation, and long-term durability.

For this Gabon furnace warehouse, Canglong designed a large-span steel structure system to provide sufficient internal space for furnace equipment operation and material handling.

The building layout supports:

Large internal working space with fewer structural obstacles
Overhead crane installation for material handling
Flexible equipment arrangement and future operational adjustments
Efficient workflow between storage and production areas

Adapted for Furnace and High-Temperature Working Conditions

The aluminum melting process requires a building environment with effective ventilation and practical equipment access.

The project design includes:

Ventilation considerations for industrial production conditions
Roof skylights to improve natural daylight inside the building
Space planning for furnace-related operations and maintenance activities
Durable roof and wall systems suitable for industrial environments

Structural Components and Building System

The main building adopts a steel frame structure with galvanized color steel roof and wall panels. The prefabricated steel system provides advantages including efficient fabrication, reliable structural performance, and convenient international transportation.

Compared with traditional concrete industrial buildings, steel structures provide greater flexibility for large-span industrial spaces and equipment-based applications.

Manufacturing and International Delivery

Canglong Group provided a complete steel building solution including structural design support, steel fabrication, quality inspection, export preparation, and delivery coordination.

The steel components were manufactured in Canglong’s production facilities before shipment to Gabon. Factory fabrication helps ensure dimensional accuracy and improves installation efficiency at overseas project sites.

Project Details

The furnace warehouse adopts a stable double slope roof structure design, which can effectively guide the rapid discharge of rainwater and is very suitable for the local climate characteristics of Gabon. The main structure is sturdy and reliable, with beams and columns made of high-strength H-beams, ensuring that the overall frame has excellent load-bearing capacity and stability. The peripheral protection system is fully covered with blue color steel metal plates on the walls and roof, which not only creates a distinct and eye-catching appearance, but also provides excellent anti-corrosion, weather resistance, and protective performance.
