Light Gauge Steel Structures
Today there is a wide use of light gauge steel in residential and commercial buildings, which is replacing the wooden studs used in framing. Additionally, if we look at wood and steel from costs perspective then they both cost more or less the same. Not using wood as a building material helps in conserving forest resources this makes using steel a Green Building Solution. Further, when a steel building is taken down then the steel used in the building can be reused where as if a wooden building is taken down then the used wood almost always goes to trash.

When compared to wood, steel is a stronger and lighter building material which is also termite and fire proof. Additionally, steel has greater resistance against extreme weather conditions like hurricane, tornado and earthquake.

Why Steel Structure:
When compared to wood, steel is a stronger and lighter building material.

Owner's Benefit:
Owners enjoy lower total costs in higher quality structures when they build with steel. The material's higher strength contributes to safer structures that require less maintenance and last longer.
