Frequently Asked Questions

Structural steel is an excellent choice for playscape designs because it offers a combination of strength, versatility, and longevity that few other materials can match. For projects like the Bradbury Park Playscape, steel provides the durability needed to withstand heavy use and changing weather conditions, ensuring safety and stability for years to come.

Beyond strength, steel’s flexibility allows designers to create unique, artistic, and organic shapes that bring imaginative concepts to life, such as structures inspired by nature or abstract play elements. It can also be finished with coatings or paint systems that enhance aesthetics and protect against corrosion.

Additionally, structural steel is sustainable and recyclable, making it an environmentally responsible choice for public projects. In short, steel enables creative freedom while delivering the safety, durability, and low maintenance required for modern community playscapes.

Tekla 3D modelling improves steel fabrication projects by providing highly accurate and detailed digital representations of the entire steel structure before fabrication begins. This allows BridgeFab to:

Visualise the project in full 3D, ensuring every component fits perfectly

Identify and resolve design clashes or errors early, reducing costly mistakes

Streamline communication between designers, fabricators, and clients

Automate and optimise fabrication processes, like cutting, welding, and assembly

Speed up project approvals by providing clear visualisations

Enable precise planning of materials and workflows, improving efficiency

Overall, Tekla 3D modelling enhances accuracy, reduces rework, saves time, and ensures a smoother construction process from design through to erection.

BridgeFab’s role in the Bradbury Park Playscape project was to provide expert structural steel fabrication and erection services. Using advanced Tekla 3D modelling software, we designed, fabricated, and installed steel components that brought the playscape’s natural-inspired theme to life. Our precision engineering ensured the steel structures were safe, durable, and seamlessly integrated into the surrounding environment, creating an engaging and vibrant community space.
