Variable Cross-Section Steel Structures

Variable-Section Steel Structures for Complex Projects


When your project demands more than “catalog” solutions, METUP delivers. We specialize in EN 1090-2 (EXC2) and ISO 9001 certified custom steel structures—tailored for unique geometries, complex loading conditions, or challenging site requirements in Denmark, Germany, Scandinavia, and beyond.

Variable-Section & Complex Structure Capabilities

No geometry is too complex:

  • Beams and trusses with variable cross-sections
  • Hybrid/multi-material assemblies
  • Modular frames and expandable units
  • Curved or non-linear members
  • Multi-bay/multi-story solutions
  • Retrofit/adaptation of legacy structures

If it can be engineered, we can build it—and certify it.

From Concept to Certified Delivery—Our Process

Engineering Collaboration

01


Work directly with our project managers and engineers—share concepts or detailed models.

02

Design Refinement


DfM input ensures manufacturability without compromising vision.

03

Prototyping/Mock-up


Rapid turnaround on prototypes or partial assemblies as needed.

04

Certification/Compliance


All designs reviewed to EN 1090/ISO standards; documentation prepped for first-time regulatory sign-off.

05

Fabrication & QA


Advanced processes (welding, CNC machining, finishing) under strict quality control.

06

Delivery/Fit-up Support


Logistics tailored to over-dimensional or sensitive loads; on-site fit-up advice available.

Industry Use Cases for Variable Cross Sections and Custom Structures

At Metup, we turn complex structural ideas into reality. Our engineering team specializes in fabricating variable-section beams, hybrid assemblies, and modular systems to fit even the most demanding project requirements. Whether your project involves advanced machinery, unique architectural visions, or adapting legacy buildings, we provide tailored steel solutions built for long-term performance and flexibility.

Specialized Platforms & Bridges

Custom platforms, bridges, and pipe bridges engineered to support machinery and process equipment with precision and safety.

 Architectural Support Frames

Non-standard frames crafted for unique facades and bold architectural features, combining strength with aesthetic appeal.

Elevated Walkways & Access Towers

Custom-designed walkways, catwalks, and towers providing safe, reliable access in challenging or restricted environments.

OEM Equipment Structures

Robust machine enclosures, skids, and load frames made to spec for equipment manufacturers and industrial integrators.

Retrofit & Expansion of Legacy Buildings

Expert solutions for adapting, expanding, or strengthening aging factories, warehouses, and public infrastructure.

Modular & Unique Infrastructure

Innovative modules, trusses, or structures to accommodate unconventional layouts or scalable growth for public or private infrastructure.

Engineering, Documentation & Compliance


METUP operates with full EN 1090-2 (up to EXC2) and ISO 9001 certification—ensuring every platform, staircase or railing from Metup is compliant with EU and local requirements for structural integrity, load-bearing, and slip/code and quality management.

Every project includes:

  • EN 1090-2 (EXC2) and ISO 9001 certificates—documentation pack ready for any EU inspection or public tender
  • DfM (Design for Manufacturability) support at every stage
  • Peer-reviewed stress/load calculations; statics per Eurocode/national annexes
  • As-built records; digital handover (DWG/DXF/BIM/PDF)
  • Multi-lingual documentation (DA/DE/EN/LV etc.)
“No missing paperwork—ready for regulator review first time.”
