Steel buildings are becoming more common in today’s construction industry over traditional materials such as timber and concrete. A significant benefit is in the construction process; steel frames and beams are created in workshops with complete control over quality and dimensional accuracy with computer numerical control machinery. This precision also allows for reduced waste and improved workflows. Another significant benefit of steel buildings is their reduced weight; a lighter structure produces less load for foundations and can perform better with some ground conditions. Architects are often fond of steel as it gives them greater design control that would not be possible with traditional building materials. As the majority of a steel buildings manufacturing process occurs offsite, the buildings can go up in a fraction of the time with mobile cranes brought in to lift beams and frames into position with precision.
Some of the benefits of steel construction include
- Speed of construction
- Safety
- Value for money
- Robustness
- Prefabrication
- Reduced weight
- Architectural expression
- Configuration adaptability
- Sustainability
