Advantages and disadvantages of steel structure houses

(1) Strong load-bearing capacity and excellent safety performance
Steel structure houses have a relatively light weight, but this does not affect their strong load-bearing capacity. Compared to other houses with the same layout, the weight of the steel structure itself is only about one-third of that of the others, but its load-bearing capacity is not much different. So, the safety performance of steel structure houses is very good.
(2) Steel structures have good toughness and strong seismic performance
The material of the steel structure is produced in a standardized manner, so the materials of each component are uniform, and there is no significant difference in the stress performance of each part, so it will not suddenly fracture due to local overweight. Steel structures have good toughness, strong adaptability to the environment and load-bearing capacity, and their seismic performance is also highly praised.
(3) Easy installation and easy disassembly
Steel structure houses are directly assembled with various components on site, using bolts for connection construction, so installation is simple and disassembly is also very convenient.
(4) Fast construction speed and low cost
Steel structure houses only require cast-in-place concrete on the floor slab, and the beams, columns, and walls are all installed in a prefabricated manner. So the overall construction speed is very fast, and the required manpower and material resources are greatly reduced.
(5) Energy conservation and environmental protection
The steel structure houses use standardized prefabricated wall panels, and more than 80% of the materials can be recycled, so the steel structure is energy-saving and environmentally friendly, with less pollution.
