What is Advantages of steel building structure ?

A steel building is a metal structure fabricated with steel for the internal support and for exterior cladding, as opposed to steel framed buildings which generally use other materials for floors, walls, and external envelope. Steel buildings are used for a variety of purposes including storage, work spaces and living accommodation. They are classified into specific types depending on how they are used.

Advantages

· Steel has a high strength-to-weight ratio, which is very strong for its weight, and is much higher than other common construction materials, such as concrete and wood. This means that steel components can be made very lightweight without sacrificing strength.

· Ductile steel structures can absorb more energy before failure than brittle structures. This makes them ideal for applications subjected to high-impact loads, such as in earthquake-prone areas or industrial settings.

· Prefabrication and ease of assembly of steel structures lead to faster construction times. 

· The steel structure is recyclable, making it an environmentally friendly choice. 

· Low maintenance requirements of steel structures contribute to long-term cost efficiency. 

· Steel fabrication can be easily modified or expanded. 

· Properly designed steel structures can provide high fire resistance.
