Metal Buildings & Steel Building Kits
Find out how we build residential, commercial, and agricultural metal buildings 30% faster than traditional construction.
Farm buildings are a vital element in the agricultural and farming industry. They often serve as efficient farm storage and animal housing solutions, lowering operating costs while helping to maximize productivity.
Find out why 95% of industrial and 73% of new commercial construction use commercial metal buildings for their projects.
Advantages of Metal Buildings
Stick-built can normally be seen in barn, garages, and homes and it uses lumber. Here are a couple of advantages that metal buildings possess when compared to stick-built:
- Higher durability: It should not come as a surprise that metal buildings far exceed stick-built in terms of durability due to the material used.
- Enhanced Precision: Metal buildings can provide you with a more precise solution that is tailored to your needs due to modern technological advancements. While stick-built does not offer that much flexibility.
- Cost-Friendly: In terms of cost, metal buildings can be cheap because their material is normally brought in a bulk and the same materials are normally needed for every project.
- Quick Construction: In terms of construction time, commercial metal buildings can come up much faster because the components are pre-fabricated.
- Budget-Friendly: Commercial metal buildings are much cheaper in terms of cost when compared with structural steel.
- Ease of Design: Structural steel requires each design to be built from ground-up which can be a time-consuming process. Metal buildings can be pre-fabricated so there are always numerous designs available.
- Materials: Structural steel requires to be cut, bolted, and punched on-site. While metal buildings can be pre-engineered.
- Expansion: Expanding pre-engineered metal buildings is much easier as they are initially designed while keeping this in mind. Expansion of structural steel can be much trickier.
- Lightweight: Concrete tilt-up building can be difficult to work around with due to their weight. On the other hand, metal industrial buildings are lightweight and can easily assemble on site.
- Construction Time: It takes a significant period to proceed with each phase of concrete tilt-up buildings due to the time it takes for it to dry. Metal industrial buildings can be worked on non-stop.
- Cheaper: Steel is much cheaper than concrete, so if you are looking for an industrial building solution in budget then metal buildings are the best choice.
- Design Flexibility: The level of design flexibility offered by metal industrial buildings is much more as concrete designing requires significant expertise and state of the art tools and equipment.
What are Metal Buildings?
A steel building is a building structure composed of steel completely from interior support to external cladding and design.
Metal buildings and steel building kits are one of the most commonly used building structures today. When it comes to structural integrity, weather resistance, and build quality, metal buildings are what overtake any other building type. Metal building kits are also the most economical way to build because of the weight to strength ratio of steel.
No matter whether you’re looking for an industrial building or a residential or commercial clear span steel structure for quick and easy setup and working, metal buildings are the way to go. In fact at Strong Building Systems, you’re going to get the best metal building kits and structure for all purposes at the best prices.
FAQs
The most basic metal buildings can be as low as $5 per square foot for the steel only, and the most premium metal buildings can cost as much as $25 or more per square foot for steel only.
The polyvinyl coating on the outside of every metal panel does not allow new paint to be added. There are numerous color options on our MBCI Color Chart for our panels and doors.
The commercial-grade steel columns are anchored to a large concrete block to keep the building standing, even in hurricane-force winds.
We get asked this all of the time. The answer is that in the majority of situations, yes, a steel building kit will be cheaper than building with wood. Several things can affect the price of building like design, local building codes, and the features of the property it is being built on.
Benefits of Metal Buildings
The final cost of metal buildings vs traditional construction can be 30% less expensive or more! They also have high-performance roof and wall systems that support energy efficient design.
The high tensile strength of metals like steel and aluminum makes them perfect building materials. Taking advantage of this benefit, we’ve created completely steel based building kits that can be used for a variety of purposes depending upon your requirement and usage. The buildings are very durable in comparison to other materials and hold up amazingly when it comes to weather conditions and natural disasters which can be destructive for other buildings. However, in such situations, you should always make your own safety the first priority no matter how safe the steel structure around you might be.
When it comes to maintenance requirements, brick and concrete buildings as well as wooden buildings require constant leakage proofing, insulation and painting jobs to be done for the buildings to remain stable, durable, and visually aesthetic. That’s not the case with metal buildings. The great thing about metal buildings is that they are very modern looking and the insulation and maintenance requirements for steel buildings is not even close to other building types.
Typical metal buildings have a lifespan of 50+ years, but easily stretch to over a hundred years with proper car and maintenance.
Metal buildings can be designed to be works of art or basic metal boxes and anything in between.
