Applications of Pre-engineered Buildings

Ever since the technology of pre-engineered buildings was introduced, its merits have been appreciated. Over the passage of time, more and more advances have come in making these structures extremely versatile and useful. The speed and ease of construction, mobility, timeliness of project completion and remarkable cost-efficiency that is brought about in PEB projects is universally acknowledged. Let’s have a look at some of their most common applications:-

     ·  Factories: Most factories have some basic structural requirements including parameters of safety, durability and effective utilization of space, with fairly minimal design customization needed. As a result, steel buildings can prove sturdy effective as factory structures.

      · Warehouses or Distribution centres: The same holds true for storage spaces, distribution areas, warehouses and logistics centres. A basic structural steel framework with ready, finished roofing and cladding parts is fully capable of fulfilling their requirements.

     

   · Industrial sheds & Hangars: Metal Buildings with ready to assemble-ridges, bays and designated areas for different functions prove quite useful for constructing industrial sheds. In fact, the large span structures like aircraft hangers can be commissioned in remarkably short times.

    · Indoor and outdoor stadium with canopy: By adding elements like colour & type variations in the roofing and cladding and other exterior finishes. PEB’s can develop into rather attractive –looking structures that have now found wide acceptance as sports facilities such as stadiums.

Commonly used Building construction types

There are different types of construction which are used for constructing building, homes, sheds, and such. When it comes to designing a structure, the construction type is chosen based upon a number of things such as Purpose of the structure, Size of the structure, Load bearing constraints, Environmental factors, Cost of materials and Speed of construction.

Here are the most commonly used building construction types-

1. Pre-engineered Construction

Pre-engineeredbuildings (PEB) are those building in which excess steel is avoided by tapering the sections. They are mostly constructed in a quicker way as compared to any other construction type. The key advantage of Pre-engineered buildings is low installation time. All the parts are ready to be bolted and screwed together.

Fast construction, Engineered to handle all the loads, Easy to design and manufacture are some major advantages of pre-engineered buildings which make them different from others.

2.  Steel frame Construction

Steel frame construction is used primarily in large span steel structures. These specialised steel structures are built from steel column and steel trusses to support floors and roofs. Large span steelstructures and High rise buildings are commonly built using this method, as it’s easy to transport materials up using cranes and the components are quickly bolted or welded together.

Steel is flexible, due to which it helps in earthquake prone areas or in areas of high wind. Steel can flex quite a bit without taking on permanent deformation, making it a great material for constructing tall buildings, steel bridges etc.

3. Concrete Frame construction

Concrete frame construction uses reinforced concrete columns, concrete beams, and concrete slabs to built the support structure. This construction type is often used in high-rise buildings and elevated roadways.

In building construction most all components are casted on site, thus construction time is not fast due to the curing time of the components. Concrete frame construction does not hold well to earthquakes, although it does weather wind effect and weather well, over time.

Applications of Steel Pre-Engineered Building

A Pre-engineered Building is a building that consists of light gauge metal roof panels on steel purlins connecting between rigid frames with light gauge metal wall cladding. It is a relatively flexible structure as compared to conventional structures.

Pre–engineered buildings consists of a complete steel-framed building system, with components pre-designed to fit together in a vast variety of combinations to meet the unique requirements of specific end uses.

Applications of Steel in PEB

1- Rigid steel frames of the building are mainly considered as the main frames of Pre Engineered Buildings (PEB).

2- Panels are used for sheeting purposes are generally of profiled steel sheets as roof and wall sheeting, roof and wall liners and partition.

3- Generally, Zinc Aluminium coated steel which are resistant to corrosion and heat are used.

4- Steel is also used in Main framing or vertical columns

5- Steel or aluminium framed doors and windows are fixed to the purlins or the supporting profiled steel by bolting to the flanges already fixed to the purlins.

6- A huge steel frame work is suspended from the ceiling and false ceiling of rigid boards are either bolted or placed over the frame work.

Thus steel is a favored material for construction, due to its various advantages like quality, aesthetics, economy and environmental conditions.

Pre Engineered Buildings / PEB – A Fast & Durable Industrial Shed

Introduction to Pre Engineered Buildings:

The word Pre or Prefab is related to prefabricated construction. Prefab is not an industrial term like modular homes, manufactured homes, panelized home, or site-built home. The term is a combination of panelized and modular building systems, which is well planned & designed before the initiation of construction and placement of structure as per detailed design at work site.

Pre engineered buildings are made of composite materials, which are manufactured by combination of materials comprising different properties such as plastics, concrete and steel. These structures are specifically designed for longer period of applications or usage. Pre Engineered Buildings (PEBs) are extremely durable, weather proof as well as termite proof. Due to their longer life of utility and affordable cost of construction, the Manufactured Pre engineered buildings can be used for permanent, semi permanent or temporary applications.

Key Facts about Pre engineered buildings in Comparison with Conventional Buildings:

Followings are the facts and benefits come out globally due to mass emergence of Pre engineered buildings over conventional building structures in last few decades:

·        In pre-engineered buildings, self-supporting & ready-made components are used, so the need for formwork, shuttering & scaffolding is signficantly minimized.

·        Prefabrication site can be easily located and the costs of labor, power, materials, space and overheads are less. By using prefabrication technology, a better quality control can be achieved in a factory assembly line setting than at the construction site.

·        In case of prefabricated structures or buildings, the cost is analyzed at the stage of design itself & therefore chances of fluctuation of cost are very less. However, the overall construction cost of conventional structure depends upon time and market fluctuations.

·        PEB is energy efficient, quick and simple in design, because the components are designed on a specialized computer aided programs & then manufactured and reviewed by experienced engineering team with high precision.

·        Pre engineered buildings are also “Smart Steel Buildings” since these are 100% customized, great design flexibility, resistant to moisture, adverse weather conditions, earthquakes, termites & fire.

Pre engineering building is the low rise buildings build in such a way that its structural parts like columns, purlins, roof truss etc are manufactured prior to its arrival on manufacturing site. As the name suggests itself, Pre-engineered building (PEB) is the building manufactured and constructed using prefabrication process. Pre-Engineered Building is becoming increasingly common nowadays to efficiently satisfy a vast range of adaptive structural applications and aesthetic design requirements because of the diminished amount of pre-engineering involved in custom computer-aided designs (CAD). Generally, Pre-engineered buildings are the low rise buildings, since maximum height can go from 25 to 30 meters.  Low rise buildings are best for houses, offices, shop fronts, showrooms etc. Building a pre engineering building could save some of the cost and time spent in its construction. In time saving, PEB construction takes less time since work get divided into different appropriate work sections. But more than ‘Time’ and ‘Cost’, further two other things are of prime importance, as follows:

1.      Fit To Purpose: The pre engineering building should be economically and spatially fit to purpose that client want to realize by working under it.

2.      Safe for Workers: The labor working under Constructed Pre engineering building should be free from any threat to their lives.

Moreover, the standard of PEB building can be customized by the attachment of windows, doors, trims, eaves, and many other exterior features, resulting into a new creation in field of structural engineering.
