help with modular scene ?

I figured since I'm not really showing any actual art yet and the feedback I want is of a more logistical than artistic nature, it would probably get buried/overlooked in P&P Anyway, I am doing this modular mini-scene. First one. I have started over like 3… -

Also I think you really don't need to make so many new textures for those metal beams. They all look kind of the same anyway. "Ceiling"… -
