In previous blogs from Ulbrinox we have discussed that steel is created with an alloy between iron and carbon. It retains the pure characteristics of iron while, thanks to carbon and other materials, it improves its chemical-physical properties. This gives it the necessary characteristics to justify the reasons why it is convenient to build with this material.
Currently, there are various constructions whose structures are composed of galvanized steel profiles, along with a number of components or sub-systems (structural, insulation, finishes, etc.) that function as a whole.
This is a choice of a more competitive structure, which is increasingly chosen by individuals and developers, for the intrinsic properties of the material such as: resistance, lightness, versatility and durability; but also for the advantages it represents when undertaking a work, expansion or reform
This is a light construction system which makes it the primary choice for excessively soft soils. This is because it is recommended to use structures of lesser weight to transmit less load to the ground and thus obtain less generous foundations and consequently, more economical.
Advantages of building with steel
Steel is one of the materials for structures and constructions that has the greatest advantages:
- Uniformity
- Durability
- Speed of assembly
- Ductility
- Reuse
- High resistance
- Toughness
- Ease of manufacture
- Possibility of joints and welds
The steel structure in construction is a fundamental system in the rapid industrialization of Mexico and the development of its infrastructure. Currently, the steel structure has a promising future in construction to meet the large civil engineering works that are required throughout our cities.
Steel is full of important advantages in almost all its measurable forms: strength, flexibility, cost, durability, functionality.
