This article states the history of the steel building industry, and the advantages from building in steel. some of these are:
1)steel building manufacturers have created prefabricated systems for a wide range of applications
2)steel is used very successfully for structures as small as toll booths and vending machine shelters, and as large as barns and agricultural facilities, work shops, sports facilities, even churches and retail centers.
3)Steel buildings are frequently used in larger buildings like commercial aircraft hangers and sports arenas, where a large clearspan space is required. (Clearspan is an interior space of a building where the roof is supported by the bordering structural walls and framework, and not with columns.)
4)prefabricated steel buildings can also be erected more quickly than traditionally constructed buildings.
These were just some of the structural advantages found through the use of steel in this article.
