Why Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings Are a Game-Changer for Businesses

As a business owner, you know very well that time is money and that any delays in construction can hinder your operations and put you at a competitive disadvantage. Pre-engineered steel buildings can streamline your building process, whether you need a commercial building, warehouse, or factory.
Armstrong Steel can design a customized solution tailored to your specific needs. Built to withstand harsh weather conditions and last for decades, our pre-engineered steel buildings are also renowned for their speed of construction, cost-effectiveness, and flexibility.
Complete your building as soon as possible
Traditional construction involves building everything on-site, which often makes construction timelines longer. You can accelerate your project with pre-engineered steel buildings. At Armstrong Steel, we design and engineer your building in-house, creating a customized prefabricated metal building tailored to your exact specifications.
Easy to assemble and erect
You can count on us to make sure that everything is engineered to your local loads and codes. We also provide engineer-stamped plans to help you secure building permits, so your pre-engineered metal building will be ready to assemble and erect as soon as it arrives on your site. Don’t worry because we provide detailed assembly drawings and anchor bolt patterns while all major connections and components are already punched, numbered, and cut, eliminating any additional work.
Once all components are fixed and joined together, follow our step-by-step erection guide and raise the building cranes. All this allows you to streamline your building’s assembly and erection.
Ready to finish
Our pre-engineered metal buildings are built with a steel frame to support any construction material. Whether you prefer metal wall panels and roofing or options like brick and shingles, your structure can accommodate them. Plus, you’re free to use any type of exterior or interior finish. This flexibility lets you design your business establishment to reflect your brand or corporate image. Moreover, it ensures that your steel building won’t resemble a warehouse or industrial facility if you don’t want it to look that way.
Cost-effective structures
Did you know that you can save more money down the road by using pre-engineered metal buildings to build your warehouse, industrial facility, or commercial establishment? Here’s why:
Lighter than conventional steel structures
At Armstrong Steel, we design pre-engineered metal buildings that are up to 30% lighter than traditional steel structures. This lightweight design reduces the amount of material needed, potentially saving you significant costs on the structural framework.
But don’t let the lightweight design fool you. We prioritize durability and safety. Our buildings are engineered to withstand harsh weather conditions and seismic activity, ensuring they can handle your specific load requirements and environmental factors.
Low labor costs
At Armstrong Steel, we meticulously engineer and design every aspect of your steel building to fit seamlessly so we can reduce your labor costs. With easy-to-follow assembly drawings, numbered components, and pre-punched connections, you won’t need to hire a lot of people to assemble your building.
Worry-free, low-maintenance buildings
Pre-engineered metal buildings won’t fail you when natural disasters strike. They are very durable and are strong enough to survive heavy snowfall, floods, high winds, and earthquakes. Plus, they are non-combustible, so it’s unlikely that fire will burn down the entire building.
In terms of maintenance, the steel building doesn’t require much work. You can get away with occasional routine checks (this is especially important after a storm, so you can address any issues promptly). When your building is easy to maintain, you can focus more on your business without worrying about your structure succumbing to rot, corrosion, and pests. All these characteristics also allow you to save on maintenance.
Design your building for any application
Flexibility is another great feature of pre-engineered metal buildings. They can have minimal to no columns inside, allowing you to maximize the interior space for anything, from storing large equipment to creating dedicated rooms and hosting group activities or events.
Create comfortable and safe indoor environments
Our pre-engineered steel buildings are designed to be highly energy-efficient. The steel framing provides an excellent base for insulation, so you can easily add insulation to your walls and roof. This helps to regulate indoor temperatures and reduces your reliance on heating and cooling systems. By minimizing energy consumption, you can lower your utility costs and create a more sustainable building.
Additionally, our buildings offer a comfortable indoor environment. Proper insulation helps to maintain consistent temperatures, reduce noise pollution, and improve air quality. This creates a productive workspace for your employees and a pleasant living space for your family.
A building that transforms with your business
Larger door openings simplify storing oversized equipment and vehicles or moving large items, making them essential in certain industries such as aviation, agriculture, and logistics or warehousing. A prefabricated steel building has a flexible layout that can easily be modified with any feature, including large doors and windows.
They can also be designed with modular framing systems that allow infinite options in terms of length or width extensions. This simplifies future expansions should you need more space to accommodate growing business needs.
