Steel has a lot of benefits regarding its use in construction. Mankind knows that for quite a while. As a result, Steel became the most used material on construction sites worldwide.
First of all, steel is very versatile. Even the most ambitious architects can fulfill their plans. Using steel as a construction material, means nearly complete freedom in designing any building. Furthermore, it helps that there are many speicialist in this sector who are only working on tasks connected to steel and construction with steel. They got a lot of experience about the last decades, so they do not have any problem to realize the plans of the architect. The steel parts can also be prepared in fabrications before it arrives at the construction site, so the work in great heights can be reduced.
Secondly, steel can be multicycled endlessly and it will not lose any of its properties. Regarding the global influence, it has to be mentioned that recyled steel is as often used as new produced steel in new construction sites. Additionally, steel are lighter than concrete structures which means that they do not require as much foundation. This leads to reduction of costs and reduction on the impact on the environment.
Speaking of reducing costs, steel structures can be erect very fast which certainly reduces costs as well. In highly populated areas, it is also necessary to work as fast as possible to prevent long lasting distributions.
Steel has many benefits, but the most important ones might be the fast erection of its structures and the great experience on this sector. Therefore it is no surprise that it is the most used material on construction sites worldwide.
