Steel buildings - Environmental Applications

Gone are the outdated corrugated metal buildings in the past. The new generation of pre engineered steel buildings to find that the use of various projects in developing green buildings. Building steel lead the way in green revolution in the building, meeting Green building design goals with innovative building design, engineering and the use of raw materials.


Green Building

Green building design, also known as "sustainable development" that comes from age, as we realize that resources are limited and global climate change that is inevitable - unless we take positive action now. Green building recognizes environmental impact of buildings, their construction, and ultimate discharge cycle life, and work to reduce this impact through
• Energy efficiency
• Environment sound building materials
• Innovative design of the building
• Healthy indoor environment


Environment Friendly Pre-engineered Steel Buildings

Pre-engineered steel buildings, also known as a building or prefabricated metal building prefab building innovative solutions is a solid steel I-beam construction buildings.
• Pre-engineered buildings are designed and engineered by trained and certified technicians structural metal building to meet all local building for snow and wind loads and seismic conditions.
• Building components and precise technical specifications for fabricated using the highest commercially available steel.
• Modern steel producers in the use of energy efficient steel production methods that help to substantially reduce emissions of greenhouse gases.
• When a steel building to be demolished to make way for new construction of metal building materials do not end in a place such as asphalt shingles, concrete, bricks and wood. Steel that is not recycled.
• Steel can be recycled repeatedly without loss of quality back steel.
• More steel is recycled from all the other materials can be recycled in combination.


Cool Energy Coatings Get Credit

"Cool" Coatings special siliconized polyester paints with superior quality reflective. "Cool" Coatings applied to the metal acts as a heat barrier so that the insides of the metal in the cold summer. This means that the building be coated with a "cool" Coatings use less energy, making buildings more energy efficient steel. The use of "cool" Coatings save money and the environment through reduced energy costs over the life of the building and can even be eligible for Federal tax credit.


Urban Heat Islands: Cool roof Bring Relief

Savvy builders are taking advantage of the fact that the metal roof of the building reflects light and heat to keep the building cool in hot weather. In addition, the metal roof of the building does not store and radiate heat back at night, such as type of roof. This saves energy and cooling costs to help save the environment by lessening the urban "heat island" effect. An "urban heat island" that occurs when the urban construction of asphalt and concrete absorb heat during the day and then radiates back at night so the temperature does not fall on the night as usual, and against a strong climate change and global warming.

In places like California, Texas and Florida, construction of commercial buildings that take advantage of the "cool" properties of metal roofing for commercial buildings such as warehouses, manufacturing plants, aircraft hangars, storage buildings, shops retail outlets, auto dealerships, strip shopping and more.

Metal roof of the building also serves to save energy and the environment in cold climates. A painted metal roof does not only reflect heat in summer, but also keep heat in the building on the cold, so that the cost of heating the room and keep the environment healthy and comfortable in both summer and winter. New metal roof of the building eligible for federal tax credit.

Steel Buildings: Cost-effective, efficient and Energy Green
• Do not ask for cutting down valuable forests.
• Are manufactured with a high proportion of recycled content.
• Employment of construction and building design and enforce it in less than conventional building construction.
• Hell and stainless and steel building that is almost maintenance free.
• By their very nature of the steel buildings durable, cost effective, efficient and green.
