Why Pre-Engineered Steel Buildings Offer First-Rate Safety

When adding a structure to your home or commercial property, you should make safety one of your top priorities. After all, it’s important that you want to be in a building that doesn’t feel like it would topple or sway under the slightest breeze. That’s why we recommend steel pre-engineered buildings.

1. It is proven to be durable. Steel remains an enduring favorite in construction since the 1800s – and with good reason! It’s a type of metal that can effectively stand the test of time, replacing cast-iron as the leading framing material for most structures in North America. In fact, the Steel Recycling Institute (SRI) reveals that steel has nearly 50% market share for non-residential and multi-story residential construction.

2. Steel is extremely fire-resistant. Keeping your new storage shed or carport fire-proof is more worry-free when it’s built using pre-engineered steel. Organizations have already assessed the interaction between this particular metal and fire for decades. It all comes down to this fact: fire spreads at a slower rate in a steel, making it the tougher and much safer choice compared to other building materials. 

3. It can resist high wind speeds. If you need a structure that can withstand the harshest weather conditions, you should definitely consider our pre-engineered steel buildings. They can hold their own against high winds because they are ductile – meaning they are flexible enough to bend without breaking. Our pre-engineered steel structures are built to absorb more pressure than their less tough counterparts, so you won’t have to worry about high winds lifting or blowing off your building.
