The advantages of Steel Buildings
Compared with other constructions, steel structure has advantages in use, design, development as well as the overall economy.
1.Large interior space
Steel structure buildings can better meet the requirements of flexible partitioning of large openings in buildings than traditional buildings. By reducing the cross-sectional area of columns and using lightweight wall panels, the area utilization rate increase, and the internal space is effectively increased by about 6%.
2.Energy saving
The wall made of light C-shaped steel, sandwich panel, or color steel sheet with thermal insulation, which has excellent thermal insulation performance and excellent seismic resistance. 50% energy saving,
3.Strong and durable
The use of the steel structure system in the building can give full play to the excellent elasticity of the steel structure, strong plastic deformation ability, excellent earthquake resistance, and wind resistance, significantly improving the safety and reliability of the building. Especially in the case of earthquake and typhoon disasters, structural steel can prevent the collapse of buildings.
4.Lightweight
The steel structure housing system is light in weight, about half of the concrete structure, which can significantly reduce the foundation cost.
5. The construction speed is fast,
The construction time is at least one-third shorter than that of the traditional residential system. A 1,000 square meter building can complete in 20 days with five workers.
6. Environmental Friendly
The use of sand, stone, and ash during the construction of steel structure building has dramatically reduced.
The materials used are mainly green, 100% recycled, or degraded materials. When the building demolished, most of the materials can be reused or degraded without causing garbage.
7.Flexible design
The indoor space can divide into multiple plans to meet the different needs of users.
8. Meet the requirements of industrialization and sustainable development.
The steel structure is suitable for large-scale production of factories and has a high degree of industrialization. It can integrate advanced products such as energy-saving, waterproofing, heat insulation, doors, and windows into a whole set of applications, integrate design, production, and construction, and improve the level of the construction industry.
Compared with ordinary reinforced concrete materials, steel structures have advantages such as homogeneity, high strength, fast construction speed, excellent seismic resistance, and high recovery rate. Steel has many times higher potency and elastic modulus than masonry and concrete. Under the same conditions, the weight of steel members is light.
