METAL BUILDINGS
Metal buildings offer numerous advantages over conventional structures. They are light, quick and fast to erect, and easy to modify, repair and dismantle.
To understand how much speedier metal shed construction is vs. conventional concrete buildings, lets talk about concrete buildings. To construct a concrete building, one first makes a mould for the concrete, called formwork, then puts in a reinforcement cage, then pours the concrete, then waits for 28 days for the concrete to gain strength, and then cure (water) the concrete for a further two weeks. Repeat this for every floor.

Metal buildings are also very light, strong, and flexible. This means they are superb at resisting earthquake forces. |

Pre engineered metal buildings are a very fast and economical form of construction. They are ideal for industrial buildings and warehouses. Built with factory-fabricated and factory painted custom plate girders, that are shipped to site and erected by crane, these buildings are clad with a light metal skin with insulation.
metal sheds
Metal sheds are a perfect solution for a quick, affordable, and easily removable structure. Use these for industrial storage, storage sheds, garden sheds, or temporary housing at construction sites. Metal sheds come in a very wide variety of sizes and finishes.
