UNSPSC 31361200 Bolted plate assemblies is a Class code that encompasses the supply of structural metal components—primarily I-beams, metal plates, and fabricated steel assemblies—to state and local government facilities and infrastructure projects. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing metal stock materials for repair and construction work, along with comprehensive steel fabrication services including custom doors, railings, protective covers, and welded assemblies.
