At Stahlbau Schmidt, students were introduced to the world of industrial steel construction through a behind-the-scenes tour of the company’s production facilities. Moving through the large-scale workshops, they observed how raw steel elements are transformed into precise structural components using advanced cutting, welding, and assembly technologies.

The company team offered insights into the integration of digital planning and fabrication, highlighting how 3D models guide each step of production. From observing robotic machinery in action to understanding logistical planning for transport and on-site assembly, the visit shed light on the practical challenges and innovations that shape contemporary steel architecture.

This hands-on experience emphasized the importance of accuracy, coordination, and material know-how in executing complex steel structures.
