Compared with other structure, steel structures have advantages in using, designing, construction and comprehensive economy. It is low in cost and can be moved at any time.

Flexible architectural design, much larger space, indoor space can be divided by multiple plans, meet the different needs of users. By reducing the cross-sectional area of the column and using lightweight wall panels, the area usage rate can be increased, and the effective indoor use area can be increased by about 6%.

Energy-saving effect is good, the wall adopts light energy-saving standardized prefabricated steel structure materials, good insulation performance, energy saving 50%.

The steel structure system used in residential buildings can give full play to the ductility of the steel structure, strong ability of plastic deformation, and has excellent performance of seismic and wind resistance, which greatly improves the safety and reliability of the house. Especially in the case of earthquakes and typhoon disasters, steel structures can avoid collapse of buildings.

The total weight of the building is light, and the steel structure housing system has a light weight, about half of the concrete structure, which can greatly reduce the basic construction cost.

Fast construction speed, and the construction period is at least one third shorter than the traditional residential system. Five workers can finish the installation of 1,000 square meter within 20 days.

Good environmental protection effect. Construction of steel housing  greatly reduce the using of sand, stone, and ash. The materials used are 100% recycled or degraded materials. When the Steel building is demolished, most of the materials can be reused or degraded without causing garbage. 

Steel structure building meet the requirements of residential industrialization and sustainable development. The steel structure is suitable for large-scale production in the factory and has a high degree of industrialization. It can integrate advanced products such as energy-saving, waterproof, heat-insulating, doors and windows, and can be integrated into design, production, and construction to improve the level of the construction industry.

With comprehensive advantages of light weight, industrialized manufcture, fast installation, shorter construction time, good performance of anti-quake design, fast investment recovery period, environment friendly, the steel structure has been reasonably and widely used in construction area all over the world, especially in the developed countries and regions.
