Whatever the situation, you can bet on the cost-benefits of using metal buildings for business, government and private developers. It's a fact, construction and material costs make traditional structures much more expensive than the cost of prefabricated buildings. Buildings constructed of metal can be up to 50% cheaper than conventional buildings.

Five More Reasons to Choose a Metal Building:

Fast, Efficient Construction

Prefab metal buildings arrive at the job site with each beam, truss, roof panel etc. clearly numbered for fast, simple and efficient construction. So if you are going to self-build or have a local general contractor erect your building for you simply follow the plans and bolt together the appropriate sections of your building. In most cases the only heavy equipment required will be a fork lift truck to unload the trailer and lifting equipment to raise the beams into place. The same is true for small metal buildings (metal building kits) these arrive numbered and documented, with this type of building you should be able to construct the building with 2-3 people and a backhoe for lifting the beams into place. In both cases the speed and simplicity of construction all add up to substantial cost savings.

Precision Designed

Prefab building systems utilize the latest in both computer aided design (CAD) and computer aided manufacturing (CAM) processes - resulting in precision components that fit together exactly as planned. The result of this precision engineering means you get a 'true building' not one with varying wall sizes, angles etc. These processes also allow manufacturers to provide a highly accurate metal building quotes or estimates. These cutting-edge processes eliminates the cost of paying for extra materials, while reducing other unexpected expenses. Again, equating to reduced cost to you the end-user.

Energy Efficiency

For the ultimate in energy efficiency, metal prefab buildings are the intelligent choice. Metal building components combined with metal roofing and modern insulation materials ensure metalbuildings are among the most energy efficient structures available today. The reason? Buildings made of metal are not affected by intense sunlight or extreme cold to the same extent that wooden, brick and concrete buildings can be. In a world where energy efficiency is a priority, little wonder sales and market share of these buildings continues to grow year-on-year.

Increased Safety

Pre-engineered metal buildings are the best choice for areas that experience severe weather conditions because they're designed and engineered to meet, and even exceed, your local building code for snow load, wind load and seismic conditions. Naturally, the risk from fire is also greatly reduced. Did you know that many insurance companies offer discounts of up to 40% when you buy a building constructed from metal. Insurance companies love metal!

Modular by Design

If you think you might want to expand your building in the future, consider a prefab building in metal. They are 'modular by design' and can easily be added to at any time, they are also easy to disassemble and move to a new location. When you outgrow your space (longer boat, more employees etc.), simply build an addition to your existing building for increased column-free space. If you or your business moves to another location, disassemble the building and take it with you.

Need a custom designed metal building? Manufacturers can be very flexible when it comes to custom designed plans. The result? … Big savings in the design and layout, at a fraction of the cost of traditional construction materials. Plus, buildings constructed from preengineered components, once erected, are virtually maintenance-free. This alone can equate to considerable savings in both labor and materials over time. Imagine... no painting, adding new roof tiles, replacing rotten trim.

Pre-Engineered Building Systems - 'A Serious Alternative' to Traditional Construction

Whatever the building need - permanent or temporary - pre-engineered metal building systems can be used for a multitude of end-uses from: modern housing, storage buildings, garage buildings, commercial structures, warehouse facilities, horse barns, church buildings, farm buildings, backyard sheds, aircraft hangers, sports facilities, arenas, dog kennels and more...... with an engineered building you are only limited by your own imagination.
