Steel buildings are an optimal choice due to their high durability, excellent load-bearing capacity, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness when constructing residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural, or infrastructure projects. Learn more about the types of metal buildings that suit your needs in the article below.
What are steel buildings?
Steel buildings are composed of the following main components:
- Mainframe: columns, beams, and steel roof trusses
- Secondary frame: purlins, girts, bracing, cladding supports
- Roof and wall systems
- Foundation: strip foundation, pile foundation, or slab foundation
- Related auxiliary systems: drainage, insulation, and ventilation systems
- Connection systems: bolts, rivets, and steel welding.
The main steel components and frames are designed based on specific customer requirements for shape and size. This allows for flexibility in design and makes it easy to create modern fabricated buildings suitable for practical needs such as steel sheds, barns, garages, or other commercial purposes. The components are then fabricated in a controlled process, meeting the quality standards required in each market.
After being transported to the construction site, steel frame buildings are assembled and connected using nuts, bolts, or welding. This results in a completed structure in a short period, significantly saving time and labor costs for assembly.
Why build steel buildings?
Cost savings
Since most steel structure is manufactured in the factory and only require assembly on-site, it saves significant time and labor costs, leading to overall cost savings on investment. This is a key benefit of modern structural steel fabrication, which streamlines production and minimizes delays during construction.
High durability and long lifespan
Steel frame buildings can withstand high loads and endure harsh weather conditions. Moreover, steel components are treated with an epoxy coating or hot-dip galvanizing during the manufacturing process to enhance internal protection and resist environmental corrosion.
Flexible design
Steel has excellent malleability, making it easy to form custom shapes and sizes for specific structures. Additionally, steel allows for large spans without the need for numerous columns or beams, creating expansive usable spaces.
Environmentally friendly
Steel structures can be dismantled and reassembled for different uses with ease. Investors can repurpose the structures for new projects or recycle them to support environmental sustainability.
Applications of steel buildings
- Commercial and Office Spaces Buildings: Steel buildings provide expansive, open spaces without the limitations of interior concrete columns, effectively optimizing space utilization.
- Residential Projects: With the implementation of insulation systems, fireproofing, and meticulous surface treatments, steel structures have overcome drawbacks related to fire resistance and corrosion, making them suitable for residential construction.
- Industrial Structures: Most manufacturing plants, farms, and industrial warehouses prefer steel buildings. Due to the short construction time, projects can quickly become operational. Additionally, without restrictions imposed by columns, steel buildings allow for easy and convenient movement of machinery, material handling equipment, and goods.
- Infrastructure: With the ability to accommodate complex designs and high load-bearing capacities, steel buildings are the top choice for public facilities such as bridges, airports, train stations, stadiums, shopping centers, and more.
