PROS of steel frame
Strength and Durability: Steel frames are incredibly strong and durable, able to withstand extreme weather conditions such as hurricanes, earthquakes, and heavy snow. They are resistant to warping, twisting, and buckling, ensuring structural integrity over a long period.
Lightweight: Steel is lighter than traditional building materials like wood and concrete, making it easier to handle and transport. This reduces the overall weight of the structure, which can lower the foundation and other support requirements.
Quick and Efficient Construction: Steel frames can be prefabricated off-site and then quickly assembled on-site, speeding up the construction process. This reduces labor costs and construction time significantly.
Fire Resistance: Steel is non-combustible and does not contribute to the spread of fire, providing enhanced safety in case of a fire. It retains its structural integrity at higher temperatures compared to other materials.
Pest Resistance: Steel is impervious to termites, rodents, and other pests that can damage wooden structures. This reduces maintenance costs and prolongs the lifespan of the building.
Cost-Effectiveness: Despite higher initial costs, steel framing can be more cost-effective in the long run due to reduced maintenance, faster construction times, and energy savings. Lower insurance premiums may also apply due to the fire and pest resistance of steel.
