With
every facet of design turning art into utilitarian forms, construction is turning to
minimalism, with wide expanses of uncluttered space. Tata Steel has recently launched a
new age construction material - Tata Structura - to fulfill the need of
designers for a contemporary construction product.
These closed structurals enable architects, structural engineers, builders and large
construction houses, to use light weight cold formed tube structurals - round, square and
rectangular hollow structures - instead of the conventional channels and beams.
Tata Structura is a superior construction material created out of Tata Steels
expertise in high performance steel by the Companys Tubes Division. The product
offers engineers and designers the opportunity to use this new age material to execute
their imaginative designs with ease, at a cost more economic than conventional products.
Tata Structura was launched on December 15, at the AEC (Architects, Engineers and
Construction) World Expo & Conference held at Mumbai. The Expo provided the visibility
Tata Steel had hoped to give the brand as over 40,000 leading architects, structural
engineers, builders, developers and other members of the target audience had come together
to participate in it.
