Why Steel Construction?
Since there is no need for concrete other than the foundation and the basement, the installation of steel construction can be done very quickly, regardless of weather conditions. This allows the need for capital to decrease and construction costs to decrease. The assembly of a 200 m2 house can be completed in as little as 10 days.
Where is Steel Construction Used?
Steel construction is a building system created using steel construction elements and components. These systems are used in the construction of various structures and are known for their easy installation and durability. It is preferred in the construction of industrial facilities, shopping malls, bridges and many other structures.
Why is Steel Preferred?
Steel structures are on average 50% lighter than reinforced concrete structures. Therefore, it is less affected by earthquakes. Since steel is a ductile material, steel structures are less affected by earthquakes as the energy entering the structure due to earthquake effects is absorbed by plastic deformations in the plastic joints formed.
Steel Construction or Reinforced Concrete?
Steel houses are lighter than reinforced concrete houses and the construction process is faster. Additionally, the steel material is fire and earthquake resistant and resistant to adverse weather conditions such as moisture and humidity. The disadvantage of steel houses may be their costs.
What is the Lifespan of Steel Houses?
So how many years do these structures last on average?
Steel houses have an average lifespan of 40 to 60 years. This usage period is actually entirely in your hands. If you do not neglect the maintenance of your steel house and take good care of it, its lifespan can even extend up to 90 to 100 years.
