The Advantages of Metal Building Systems
Metal building systems are ideal for remote locations because they arrive in a complete package — columns, rafters, building shell, roof systems, and wall systems are all included. And only one crew is needed to erect the building. Learn more in our article, “The Advantages of Metal Building Systems from Clark Builders”.

Putting Our Experience To Work

Our Clark Builders team of professionals work with our steel building manufacturers to produce a customized solution for your project. The term pre-engineered refers to one of the key advantages of this system. We can advance the schedule by having the manufacturers engineer the buildings structural design, while we advance preconstruction on other aspects of the project. This process continues as we get started with earthworks and foundations on site. The building is manufactured and shipped when the site is ready. Clark Builders installs all our buildings with certified Metal Building System erectors.

Benefits Of Metal Buildings

Longevity

A steel structure can last for decades, withstanding high winds, earthquakes, and other events that would level a wooden structure while also being retardant to fire and resistant cracking, rot, and pests.

Cost Efficient

Being lighter than other long-lasting building materials, such as stone blocks, a steel structure can stand on a foundation that costs less to create in terms of both man-hours and material.

Additional Benefits

Checkmark
Time Efficient
Some construction processes, such as site work preparation and foundation placement, can be performed concurrently at the work site while the pre-fabricated steel components are being manufactured, which can result in an shorter schedule duration for the entire project.
Checkmark
Quick Turnaround
Installation of the steel building itself can also be performed more quickly than if all the fabrication took place in the field. Shorter construction times translate to lower labour costs and an earlier return on investment.
Checkmark
Energy Efficient
Steel structures are easy to insulate and have tighter fittings around doors and windows, which can result in lower heating and cooling costs.
Checkmark
Durable
The durability of steel requires less maintenance than other building materials. Coloured steel coatings do not require repainting, and all steel surfaces can be easily cleaned with water and detergent.
Checkmark
Carbon Footprint
Steel is 100% recyclable. In fact, much of the steel used in construction today has been recycled from previous uses. If, in the future, your building needs to be demolished, the steel can be re-used elsewhere instead of ending up in the landfill.
