Weather and Corrosion Resistance
Why Steel Buildings?
Built to Withstand the Elements
From heavy snow to high winds and seismic activity, our quality steel buildings are engineered for strength, stability, and peace of mind—no matter the weather.
Robust Structural Integrity
Steel's inherent strength allows buildings to withstand extreme weather conditions, such as heavy snow, high winds, and even seismic activities. The flexibility of steel helps it absorb and dissipate energy, which is particularly beneficial during earthquakes.
Wind Load Design
Steel buildings are designed to meet specific wind load requirements, ensuring they remain stable and secure in high-wind environments. The use of bracing and anchoring techniques further enhances their ability to resist strong winds.
Snow Load Capacity
The high load-bearing capacity of steel makes it ideal for regions with heavy snowfall, as it can support the weight without compromising structural integrity.
Why Steel Buildings?
Built to Last, Protected for Life
With smart coatings, expert design, and simple upkeep, our steel buildings stand strong against rust, corrosion and wear.
Weathering Steel
Steel buildings often feature protective coatings such as galvanization (zinc coating), which provides a barrier against moisture and oxygen, preventing rust and corrosion. Epoxy and paint coatings can also be applied to enhance corrosion resistance.
Regular Maintenance
Routine inspections and maintenance, including cleaning and reapplying protective coatings, help keep steel structures free from rust and corrosion, extending their lifespan.
Waterproof Seals
High-quality waterproof seals and joints prevent water infiltration, protecting the steel framework from moisture-related damage.
Thermal Expansion Considerations
Steel building designs account for thermal expansion and contraction due to temperature changes, preventing structural stress and potential damage over time.
