Steel Structure House Construction Costs and Advantages


As the pace of modern life accelerates, changes are quietly occurring in people's basic needs, including clothing, food, shelter, and transportation. Housing, a significant aspect of life, is also undergoing continuous updates and iterations. Today, let's delve into the advantages and disadvantages of steel structure houses, as well as the pricing issue that everyone cares about.
I. Advantages and Disadvantages of Steel Structure Houses
Advantages:
a. Convenient Installation: Steel has high strength and a high modulus of elasticity. Compared to concrete and wood, steel has a relatively low density-to-yield strength ratio. Under the same load conditions, steel components have smaller cross-sections and lighter weights, making them easier to transport and install.
b. High Reliability: Steel has a uniform internal structure, providing excellent impact and dynamic load-bearing capabilities, as well as superior seismic performance. In applications, steel structure houses offer high reliability.
c. Good Heat Resistance: Below a temperature of 130°C, steel exhibits minimal changes in properties.
d. Environmental Friendliness: Steel used in steel structure houses is 100% recyclable, aligning with current environmental demands and sustainable development goals.
As a relatively new type of construction, steel structures are widely used in industrial buildings, public facilities, etc. However, their application in ordinary residential buildings is still limited. Cost is a significant factor. The construction price of steel structure houses can be verified through project settlement. Although there are no specific standards, there are particular design specifications. Therefore, the construction price mainly depends on individual circumstances. Different homeowners have varying requirements for area, structure, material components, material quantity, and grade, leading to different quotations. The estimated price ranges roughly from 1200 RMB per square meter to 2000 RMB per square meter. However, specific prices should be based on local material markets and actual quotations.
