Why Steel?

You can choose from a number of construction methods for your building project, so why build with steel? Dollar for dollar and pound for pound, steel is the strongest and most cost-efficient construction material available. Additionally, our metal building solutions utilize Nucor steel, which is 100% recyclable and made up of over 70% post-recycled content. This makes it one of the most environmentally friendly options available on the market, too.

Our custom steel buildings offer clear advantages compared to conventional structures:

  • LIFESPAN

Steel has a much longer life span than wood in most applications, and performs much better in humid conditions too.

  • FASTER CONSTRUCTION

Quick design, delivery and construction schedules lead to early occupancy and faster return on your building.

  • FIRE SAFETY

Steel structures can be considered safer than wood ones because they are fire resistant, allowing owners to save on insurance.

  • REDUCED WEIGHT

Steel boasts superior strength while weighing less than other building materials.

  • EFFICIENCY

Energy efficient envelopes can be maintained just as easily with steel structures compared to other structures.

  • LOW IMPACT

Steel is infinitely recyclable, making it the best choice for environmentally aware clients.
