Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEBs)
are steel structures that have been
optimized with every rule in the book
(high strength steel, built up sections,
tapered shapes) with the objective of
giving the best value to the user.
Pre-
Engineered buildings as they are
today represent the culmination of a century of Engineering optimizations
to allow the covering of large areas
at low cost. |
With all the new research taking place,
steel structures have become more
and more predictable, and international
codes have followed suit, in particular
the American codes. As a result, manufacturers can offer today very
cost-efficient solutions. |
No doubt hence that the pre-engineered
building system has become one of the
fastest growing building systems
worldwide. Pre-engineered buildings, when
compared to conventional steel buildings,
offer numerous advantages especially with regards to low-rise buildings. |
