them. The best part about using steel in construction is the fact that it provides freedom of beautiful and
eclectic designs. Moreover, it is a low cost solution that is environmentally sustainable and hence acceptable to one and all. Listed below are some of the advantages of using structural steel and steel fabrications in building
process: -
ADAPTAB I L I T Y
The reason why architects and engineers prefer
structural steel over any other raw material in
building construction i s that i t can be molded and
adapted easi ly into a desired form . This abi l i ty to
adapt to changes and required structures al lows
for easier expansions , at the same t ime helps
prolong the existence of the construction .
S TR ENGTH
Buildings that have steel fabricat ion and structural steel as a
part of construction are built on the idea of providing
strength to the building . They can easi ly withstand the most
common wearing out in the form of termites , rot , rust ing and
f i re . The fact that steel makes the building strong enough to
withstand a lot of calamit ies makes i t number one choice for
earthquake prone regions as well . This i s the reason why heavy
structures l ike bridges and skyscrapers have steel in them .
