It’s No Wonder
With steel now framing over 66% of all new low-rise commercial and industrial projects, it’s no wonder that more people aren’t realizing their full potential. A lot can be said for these buildings as they offer many more options for structures than when they were first introduced over seventy years ago. Most pre-engineered buildings of older years were to simply offer cheaper ways of providing commercial buildings protection and storage from the elements, and not offering a lot of bells and whistles of traditional commercial building. But with their growing popularity and more facade models becoming available, PEMBs are popping up as banks, churches, office buildings, schools, and even government facilities.
Pre-Engineered Metal Building
A pre-engineered commercial building mainly saves you time, money and helps you prevent trouble later on down the road. These buildings are manufactured specifically for your needs, eliminating any extras that you don’t need and would cost you extra. All the pieces of a PEMB are prefabricated at a factory, thus when it arrives to you it’s simple and fast to build and put together. Framing alone is a third less of the time it takes than other building systems. Steel never changes shape with differing weather and humidity changes as lumber does, therefore your steel won’t warp, bend, twist, deteriorate, creep or sag like wood, lasting years to come. This allows you proper time inside of your building and business, rather than constantly going out and repairing or fixing something on your structure with traditional building systems.
With prefabricated buildings going up in 33% less time, this translates to saving big on the cost of building and doesn’t require you to hire welders and more specific technicians. You can also enlist the help of a few friends and build the steel building yourself, saving on even more labor costs. And with the use of prefabricated materials, you only use what you need, cutting on waste that’s normally found in other building systems. You can even sell any leftover metal to a recycler for scrap. Inorganic steel is naturally termite and mold resistant, saving you the time, money and hassle of upkeep with bug sprays and deterrents, as well as peace of mind that there’s no possibility of mold growing where you can’t find it. Some insurance companies will even offer significant discounts to businesses using pre-engineered buildings since the commercial-grade steel is fire resistant. Steel buildings will last for decades, saving you money and keeping their value.
Preventing Trouble Later
Pre-engineered buildings are virtually maintenance-free, which saves you money and the hassle of constant repairs. You won’t have to worry about the structure sagging or shifting over time as with wooden structures, and most prefabricated steel buildings can be finished in strong steel panels, eliminating the need of repainting every few years. You can also finish your steel building in brick, stone, glass or other traditional building materials to keep it lasting even longer. Even expanding your steel building later down the road is easy and economical.
