What’s the Buzz about Prefab Steel Buildings? Why the Speed of Construction Matters

• Mar 13, 2020

When you decide to invest in a building, whether it’s for your business or your personal use, you begin a lengthy process that, hopefully, results in the perfect building to fulfill your needs and facilitate your lifestyle.

You probably will start with a problem in mind—why do you need a new building—then progress to a rough idea of building design, customization, and so on until you have a clear, refined plan or blueprint. Finishing these preliminary stages should provide a sense of relief, right?

Often, it does quite the opposite. Even if you have your building selected and plan solidified, you have to endure a lengthy construction process and wait for a long time to start using your new building. This can put your business operations and personal life on hold, and at the very least will interrupt your daily activities.

If you’ve been through the painful process of construction, you are familiar with all the drawbacks mentioned above. However, there is a solution. Opting for a prefab steel building instead of a traditional wooden structure will save you a significant amount of time. In fact, building time will be reduced by 20% to as much as 40%!

The time savings alone make considering a metal building worthwhile, and the related benefits only solidify steel buildings as the right choice. Read on to discover the advantages for yourself!

All Signs Point to Prefabrication

The popularity of prefab steel buildings in the United States is substantial and continuing to grow. With the tremendous benefits offered by these customizable, versatile buildings, this popularity should come as no surprise!

Benefits of Off-Site Fabrication

Some of the many advantages of prefab steel building kits are thanks to their off-site fabrication.

• Guaranteed Product Availability – Because prefab steel buildings are made off-site, they are guaranteed to be available. Plus, construction crews aren’t required to be on-site for weeks at a time, further expediting the immediacy of availability for use. This means no waiting for the next availability or twiddling your thumbs until you can finally purchase, receive, install, and use your building!
• Fully-Customizable – Everyone’s building needs are unique to them, their desired applications, and what they need out of a prefab steel building. With Steel Carports, you can completely customize your steel structure, ensuring that it perfectly fulfills your needs. When you consider this in conjunction with the off-site fabrication, the result is a custom building delivered right to your build site. No need for expensive on-site adjustments.
• Tight Quality Control – Because everything is manufactured off-site, quality control is more standardized and thoroughly examined. Every building receives the same inspections, goes through the same manufacturing processes, and is otherwise held to the same stringent standards, ensuring that the prefab steel building you receive is of topnotch quality.

Benefits During Installation

The advantages of prefabrication don’t stop when the building leaves the off-site manufacturing facility. In fact, that’s when some of the major benefits begin!

• Lower Labor and Time Costs – Prefabricated steel building kits are just that—buildings precisely designed and specifically manufactured to be delivered and installed as easy-to-assemble kits. This translates to lower labor costs and less time spent on installation because the process is incredibly simple!
• Quicker and Simpler Site Preparation – Steel buildings do not require the same site preparation as traditional buildings and construction sites do. As such, choosing, clearing, and otherwise preparing an installation site is a must easier, quicker process.
• No On-Site Fabrication Required – By fabricating all the parts at the manufacturing location, the need for on-site fabrication is entirely eliminated. This means less personnel and equipment are needed. There will also be no on-the-fly adjustments required, saving you valuable time and money.
• Earlier Project Completion and Return on Investment – The sooner you can use your building, the better, right? With steel buildings, your building will be delivered and installed in no time, allowing you to not only put your building to use but also see a return on investment earlier—whether it’s personal enjoyment or business benefits.
