Pre-engineered steel buildings are considered as the most flexible solution for contractors and investors / end-users. Many contractors and engineers who specialize in the use of conventional steel buildings have recently switched to pre-engineered steel buildings.
1. The components of pre-engineered steel buildings
Pre-engineered steel buildings basically consist of the below components connected to each other:
– Primary components: Built-up “I” shaped structural framing members (columns and rafters).
– Secondary components: Cold-formed “Z” or “C” shaped structural members (roof purlin, eave struts and wall girts).
– Roll-formed sheeting profiles (roof and wall panels).
– Other accessories such as gable trim, eave gutter, galvanized cable bracing, ridge ventilation, etc.
Optional structural subsystems are also widely incorporated into pre-engineered buildings to provide functional as well as aesthetic features. Functional subsystems include mezzanine floors, crane runway beams (to support crane systems), roof platforms, catwalks, etc., while aesthetic features include fascia, parapets, canopies and roof extensions.
2. Applications of pre-engineered steel buildings
Thanks to its advantages over conventional steel buildings such as high durability, high speed of construction and cost effectiveness, pre-engineered buildings have become more and more popular in the construction industry and are the top choice of contractors, architects, and designers. Pre-engineered steel buildings find their applications primarily in the construction of commercial buildings (office buildings, department stores, exhibition halls, convention centers, etc.), production halls (factories, power plants, boiler houses, etc.), logistic buildings (warehouses, cold storage buildings) and other buildings (aircraft hangars, stadiums, bridges, shipyards, etc.). The recent focus has shifted to cover residential building projects such as staff houses and apartments as well.
