Steel buildings were since then proved to be excellent alternatives for conventional building solutions, which became more and more expensive and disruptive.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The 20<sup>th<\/sup> century saw the development of the metal industry and brought an abundant availability of steel to the market, leading to the prevalence of steel buildings, especially after World War II. The use of steel buildings was then significantly expanded due to its flexibility and cost efficiency, and has become the trend in the mid-20<sup>th<\/sup> century\u2019s construction.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Pre-fabricated buildings<\/strong>\u00a0were first introduced in 1960s, when manufacturers got the ideas of pre-making all the components including roof, floor, frame walls, bracing, etc. Constructors just need to put these parts together to make a building stand, while the first computer aided design program for steel building was also created in the 1960s, allowing steel buildings to be made with a variety of designs, features, shapes and sizes and most importantly, safer&amp; faster to construct.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Today, steel building is the most flexible solution in the modern world of construction, thanks to its proven significant <strong>benefits<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Produced , engineered and constructed faster than conventional building<\/li>\n<li>Resistance to climate changes and natural disasters<\/li>\n<li>Light in weight but have more tensile strength, and can be used together with other construction materials<\/li>\n<li>More flexible in terms of designs and applications<\/li>\n<li>Cost-saving<\/li>\n<li>Environment-friendly and NO WASTE<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_tta_tabs][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Application&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;1467966273512-1afd4e3b-32d7&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>APPLICATIONS OF STEEL BUILDINGS <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The applications of steel buildings have expanded over years with the development of the world\u2019s engineering capabilities and the innovation of the steel industry. Today\u2019s engineers can design steel buildings to suit various applications with the availability of computer aided design software packages.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Typically there are 3 common types of steel buildings: Arch, Straight Walled and Clear Span buildings<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><strong>Arch Steel Building:<\/strong> mostly used in the Agricultural Industry for building storage units. The term \u201cArch\u201d refers to the outside shape of the building. The structure of this building type is usually very strong and durable<\/li>\n<li><strong>Straight Walled Steel Building:<\/strong> less sturdy compared to Arch Steel Building, but providing more usable space inside. This building type is also easy to blend into the surrounding architecture, making it ideally used for commercial, industrial, and other occupancy types.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Clear Span Steel Building:<\/strong> using large overhead support beams in place of inside support columns. This offers a wide, open interior space, while you can easily rearrange floor plans according to your need. Clear Span Steel Building is a great choice for factories, warehouses, storage units and aircraft hangars.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/zamilsteel.com.vn\/product\/\"><strong><u>Browse<\/u><\/strong><\/a> through the various applications of ZAMIL STEEL\u2019s products.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;How much is the cost?&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;1467966273610-b5aa1d28-86c6&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>HOW MUCH IS THE COST? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Calculating the cost of a steel building might be challenging, since you have to consider many involved factors.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As a matter of fact, there\u2019s not only materials involved.
