 Engineering Strength
Zamil Steel Vietnam Engineers are trained to the latest Design Codes, which results in converting complex and expensive conventional steel building designs into simpler and more economical-designed pre-engineered steel buildings without sacrificing the structural integrity and safe function of these buildings.

Today, Zamil Steel’s engineering innovations represent the standard that other Pre-Engineered Building companies aspire to reach. The entire engineering process is computerized and networked. Every engineer/detailer uses a computer for 100% of his output.

Zamil Steel design calculations are comprehensive and easy to understand. Explanations and references precede every part of the calculations to enable consultants, worldwide, to understand every facet of the design of a Zamil Steel pre-engineered steel building.

Zamil Steel has created a unique social architecture that is conducive to learning and to the release of innovative ideas at all levels. The organizational environment is fast, focused, flexible and friendly.

At Zamil Steel, we have designed and fabricated Pre-Engineered Steel Buildings that range in complexity from a simple warehouse, to a 95 m clear span aircraft hanger, to a 4,500 Metric Tons complex steel rolling mill.

Some of our prestigious projects in Vietnam include:
  • A complicated and heavy Pre-Engineered Steel Sugar Mill of (4,000 Metric Ton, and area of 25,000 m2)
  • A 600meter long, single Pre-Engineered Steel Building fertilizer plant: Phu My Fertilizer Plant (3,100 M.T., covering an area of 52,000 m2)
  • The largest clear-span Pre-Engineered Steel Building (80 meter clear span for Nike shoes factory)
 The Products Research & Development Department (PRD)
The PRD department continually refines building details with the goal of making components more economical, more aesthetically pleasing and easier to erect. PRD continuously works on enhancing the software necessary to enable our engineering team to reduce the cycle time of its services to customers.
In-house developed programs include the following proprietary software:
  • ESS (Engineering Schedule System)
  • ASFAD (Advanced Steel Frame Analysis and Design).
  • AGOSED (Automatic Generator of Shop and Erection Drawings).
  • INTELEST (Intelligent Building Estimator)
  • BOM (Generate bill of material)
  • EZ-BUILD (Automatic generator of design calculation, estimation, shop drawings, bill of materials and approval drawings)
