Steel Stats

Offsite fabrication, short lead times and ease of erection can reduce construction periods by 60%.

Share

Steel’s strength, light weight and versatility offers maximum design and architectural flexibility.

Share

Offsite fabrication, precise tolerances, and nationally recognized quality certification programs ensures consistently high quality products.

Share

Enhanced project productivity, efficiency and accuracy is achieved with use of CNC and BIM technology.

Share

Steel’s high strength-to-weight ratio allows for longer spans in buildings and bridges and results in smaller and lighter foundations.

Share

With consistent chemical and mechanical properties, steel behaves in a predictable manner when subjected to the structural loads imposed by high wind and seismic events.

Share

Steel does not melt at temperatures typically encountered in a building fire. Its non combustibility and assembly fire ratings do not degrade over the lifecycle of a building.

Share

Time-related savings can easily amount to between 3% and 5% of the overall project value, reducing the building owner’s requirements for working capital and improving cash flow.

Share

Steel is a non-combustible material and consequently does not burn, provide an ignition source or add fuel load that would enable a fire to spread or grow into a catastrophic event.

Share

Cost savings in steel buildings start at the foundations, where the loads imposed by a steel frame are up to 50% less than those of a concrete alternative.

Share

Steel enables faster project completion and maximizes the amount and use of floor space.

Share

Steel construction requires 75% fewer workers on site, and allows for faster and easier erection
