Today, the prevalence of Prefabricated steel structure architecture is no accident. As more business owners, contractors and project managers realize the benefits of this type of steel building over traditional steel structures, their popularity will only increase.

The advantages become apparent when you look at these two construction methods in a side-by-side comparison of various factors.
1. Structural weight
The primary framing members used in Prefabricated steel structure buildings are tapered and require less material than the traditional "I" profiles used in traditional steel buildings. By strategically using larger beam depths at major stress points and thinner sections in less critical areas, the overall weight of the structure can be greatly reduced.
The lighter weight of Prefabricated steel structure construction gives it the following advantages:
Shock resistance
Basic requirements (lighter buildings require less support)
Steel building prices (the less steel, the more cost-effective the building)
2. Architectural Design
Prefabricated steel structure construction is very simple because many structural elements are commonly used and work together. The design process is also aided by powerful computer-aided programs that analyze a given structure and determine the best use of materials.
For traditional steel projects, planning usually starts from scratch, namely:
longer design time
make them unsuitable for custom
Steel building prices rise as consultation hours required
And, because the design process is so fast and efficient for pre-engineered buildings, on average, delivery times are much faster.
3. Erection time
Once prefabricated metal buildings arrive at the construction site, they are ready to be assembled. With building plans and an experienced ground crew, your project will be complete in a matter of weeks. Since they are easy to assemble, they require:
less manpower
reduce working hours
lighter equipment
Traditional steel building projects are inherently slower and more labor-intensive because the planning process is less precise. This indirectly led to an increase in the price of steel structure buildings.
4. Expansion Potential
For companies on a budget, or those with long-term business plans, being able to expand a building to accommodate future growth is beneficial for many reasons: to stop you from tying up capital, to optimize operational capacity, to help you plan for your company's changing needs, etc. .
The components of the steel building are versatile, making the extension a relatively simple process. Your designer can even account for these changes in the initial building plan if you anticipate this need in advance.
With traditional steel structures, expansion is an even greater challenge because individual building components are not easily interchangeable. Prefabricated steel structure buildings have many advantages over conventional steel structures.
