What does steel structure mean?

In a narrow sense, steel structure generally refers to steel structure buildings.

Such as steel factory buildings, steel bridges, steel gymnasiums, steel waiting halls, etc.

Steel structure building is a new type of building system, which has broken through the industrial boundaries of real estate, architecture and metallurgy and integrated into a new industrial system. This is the steel structure building system that people in the industry are generally optimistic about.

Compared with traditional concrete buildings, steel plates or sections are used to replace reinforced concrete in steel structures, which has higher strength and better seismic performance. Because the components can be manufactured in the factory and installed on site, the construction period is greatly shortened. Because steel can be reused, it can greatly reduce construction waste and is more environmentally friendly, so it is widely used in industrial buildings and civil buildings all over the world.

At present, the application of steel structure building in high-rise and super-high-rise buildings is becoming more and more mature, and it has gradually become the mainstream construction technology, which is the development direction of future buildings.

Advantages of steel structure building

1. greatly saves the construction time, and the construction is not affected by seasons.

2. Increase the use area of residential space and reduce construction waste and environmental pollution.

3. Building materials can be reused to promote the development of other new building materials industries.

4. It has the characteristics of good seismic performance, easy reconstruction, flexible and convenient use, and brings comfort to people.

5. High strength, light weight, high component safety and low cost.

6 in line with the national sustainable development strategy, low-carbon, green, environmental protection, energy saving and other industries are key industries supported by the state.

Disadvantages of steel structure building

Due to the non-renewable land resources, the Ministry of Construction has banned the use of traditional clay bricks. At the same time, China's steel output has reached 654.38 billion tons. The situation of serious oversupply forces iron and steel enterprises to find another way, introduce foreign mature steel structure residential building system, and find a new way out for the construction industry and steel industry. Therefore, steel mills and building materials enterprises are in the forefront of steel residential buildings.

1. It is heat-resistant and fire-resistant, and needs to be coated with fire-retardant paint.

2. It is easy to be corroded, and the surface needs to be coated with antirust paint to reduce or avoid corrosion and improve durability.
