Strong, Versatility, economy and plentiful are some favorable properties of steel that makes it one of the most efficient materials for use in large span steel structures.

The availability of steel sections in a variety of dimensional ranges provides the designers with a wide variety of design options. These sections are manufactured in convenient shapes, sizes and thickness. They can be readily fabricated, combined and connected to form unlimited possibility of designs.

Features of Structural Steel Construction:-

·       Structural characteristics

1) Steel frame can easily have the layout changed to suit new design than concrete, especially requiring alteration after completion of the structures.

2) Steel has lower dead load (unless encased in concrete)

3) Steel has higher thermal expansion value

4) Steel sections in various convenient type and size thus economical in design and uses – refer to standard steel sections.                              

·       Construction aspects 

1) Quicker to erect and can be prepared offsite – in factory environment with good production and quality control.

2) Longer and highly coordinated planning – requires lesser time to make structural design, fabrication and delivery.

3) High requirement in the control of dimensional accuracy before and during construction (in fabrication and in erection).

4) Complex quality assurance procedures – especially in the control of welding connections.
