The significant advantages of steel construction

Steel structure is a metal structure which is made of structural steel components connect with each other to carry loads and provide full rigidity.

1. High material strength and light weight

Steel has high strength and high elastic modulus. Compared with concrete and wood, its density to yield strength ratio is relatively low. Therefore, under the same stress conditions, the steel structure has a small cross-section, light weight, easy transportation and installation, and is suitable for structures with large spans, high heights and heavy loads.

2. Steel has good toughness, plasticity, uniform material and high structural reliability

Suitable for bearing impact and dynamic loads, with good seismic resistance. The internal structure of steel is uniform and close to isotropic homogeneous body. The actual working performance of steel structure is more in line with calculation theory. Therefore, the steel structure has high reliability.

3. High degree of mechanization in steel structure manufacturing and installation

Steel structure components are easy to manufacture in factories and assemble on site. The finished products of mechanized steel structure components manufactured in factories are of high precision, high production efficiency, fast assembly speed on site and short construction period. Steel structure is a structure with the highest degree of industrialization.

4. Good sealing performance of steel structure

Since the welded structure can be completely sealed, it can be made into high-pressure containers, large oil pools, pressure pipelines, etc. with good airtightness and watertightness.

5. Low carbon, energy-saving, green and environmentally friendly, reusable

The demolition of steel structure buildings will hardly generate construction waste, and the steel can be recycled and reused.
