Warehouse 12×24 & Warehouse 12×18

Warehouse 12×24 & Warehouse 12×18: steel warehouse in Thailand, 2024. World Steel – structural steel fabricator in Vietnam – provided design, fabrication and supply.

Warehouse 12×24 & Warehouse 12×18 is a steel warehouse in Thailand. World Steel designed, fabricated and supplied the steel structure, exported in 2024. Design and fabrication follow US structural steel standards – AISC 360, AWS D1.1 and ASTM materials.

For a steel warehouse, World Steel keeps one team accountable from structural design and shop drawings to fabrication in its Tay Ninh factory. Shipments to Thailand follow World Steel’s export packing procedure.
