scrap, optimum utilisation of laser cut components, improvements in production efficiency,

packaging, transportation and overall improvisation of the products life expectancy are taken

into consideration.

DESIGN & EXPERTISE

Our sales and design functions are equipped with the latest technology systems available.

Utilising both 2D and 3D CAD software, combined with communication and IT systems, we areable to provide our customers with a rapid response to enquiries and orders. Designing with 3D

systems also allows for easy design verification prior to fabrication. We continue to invest in our

design and fabrication facilities with plant, equipment, high speed automatic laser cutting

equipment and software.

PROJECT SOLUTIONS & SUPPORT

Utilising our experienced sales teams, installation engineers and project managers we have the

experience to take your product and project requirements from initial concept right through to

commission. We welcome the opportunity to provide a complete package approach. This can

include, design consultation and specification, site survey, quotation, design verification,

RAIL INFRASTRUCTURE

Steelw ay offer invaluable engineering ex pertise and specialist fabrication experience providing

an ex tensive range of a ccess metalw ork solutions for the rail industry. As w ell as a full portfolio

of access metalw ork w e also design, manufacture and install many bespoke products from small

ladders or covers to large structures such as w alkw ays, gantries and bridges.

Steelway are involved on numerous railway upgrades and rail installation projects on the rail network throughoutthe UK. We design, supply, and install rail access structures including staircases, ladders, walkways, steel

platforms, handrail/guardrail systems and other station upgrades. We have invested considerably over the lastseveral years in design and fabrication processes including up to date 3D inventor design software and new lasercutting technology. This coupled with our fabrication and operating systems put us at the leading edge offabrication excellence.

Steelway recommend involvement at the early stage of a project cycle by giving support for project costing,design input and project presentation graphics. Value added engineering can help to reduce the cost of a projectconsiderably.

Recent projects include platforms for mounting signalling equipment at track side on the Bletchley upgradeproject, at Milton Keynes, and at Blackfriars station we supplied the platform canopy structures and also accessmetalwork. We have replaced a number of wooden staircases and platforms with GRP fabrications to give

access to signal boxes.

All our fabrications are compliant with railway regulations. All our products can be manufactured in GRP whichbeing a non conductive material is particularly useful in areas around electrified lines and potentially hazardousor corrosive areas.

Steelway have an unsurpassed understanding of the numerous listed and heritage structures located across the

award winning projects carried out by us.

Work on heritage canopies includes new structures to match those existing at the grade II* listed Moor Street

Station Birmingham together with sensitive repairs and replication at Loughborough Central and total re-creation

at Kidderminster for the Severn Valley Railway.

In such cases a total package can be offered which takes on the design element, the necessary castings, glazing

and timber elements together with full installation.

The wide range of client needs has seen the recent reproduction of a cast iron station name in Somerset which is

thought to be the first instance in 120 years where such a product has been produced. Whatever your heritage

Birmingham - M oor Street StationSteelways involvement in the 2002 restoration of the Grade II listed MoorStreet Station in Birmingham was to be the beginning of the creating of newopportunities for both Steelway and for clients alike. With increasing demandfor refurbishment and in particular replica and restoration work across thenetwork we have the ability to replicate design concepts from drawings thatoften date back to the early Victorian age.

Clearly a proven track record in engineering was part of the clients belief inSteelway and backed up with Link-Up approval with proof were all importantparts of the equation. The client had great ambitions and wanted his derelictsite to win national accolades for the transformation that was to come. Therewould be no instances where inappropriate 'off the shelf' items would beacceptable and with the Steelway approach clients satisfaction is paramount.Added to all of this we were aware of the real world where the need to workwithin budgets and also to a programme is essential.

The result was a national award winning restored and enhanced station fit forthe 21st century but with all the qualities of a bygone age. Our workcommenced on site almost a decade ago and our involvement in the ongoingdevelopment there continues to this day. In the intervening years ourreputation has grown and the scope of our own activities on other historic siteshave continued to trail blaze, resulting in many more award winning projectsthroughout the country.

Bath - CanopyAs part of a major retail scheme adjacent to Bath Spas historic railway station,Steelway were employed to recreate the long lost Porte Cochere which oncegraced the down-side station building. The challenge was to provide anauthentic solution as far as was possible. From a 1920s photograph, togetherwith site evidence, and combined with our historic knowledge of designs of theperiod, we were able to determine the dimensions of its projection and recreate

the original appearance and details to a very exacting standard. The contractincluded the complete re-creation which took on board the replica rivetedstructure, patent glazing using glazing bars which emulated the 100 year olddesigns of Henry Hope & Sons together with all necessary timber and cast ironcomponents. The project received part grant funding from Railway Heritage Trust.

With thedemise of steam in the 1960s the turntable became redundant but was offered apossible new lease of life when rescued by the then infant West Somerset Railway.The turntable is the first GWR railway turntable to be extensively rebuilt andadditionally is the only one to have been extended since the 1930s from its

original 550 to 650 using genuine GWR modification drawings. The railwayturntable which weighed in excess of fifty tonnes was transported in one pieceand craned into position by Steelways installation teams.
