WHAT IS A COLD-FORMED STEEL BUILDING?
Cold-formed steel is a type of metal that refers to the specific alloy–steel, and the manufacturing process which affects cost, durability, and versatility. The first cold-formed steel building was erected in 1849. Since then, this material has become a popular choice for high-rise buildings that require strength and durability with a comparatively lightweight, low-cost construction. Let’s take a closer look at cold-formed steel as a building material.
MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Cold-formed steel gets its name from the characteristics of the manufacturing process. This product is produced using cold processes. Instead of pouring molten iron into molds which is how traditional steel is made, the steel is cooled as it is rolled into flat sheets using large rollers. These sheets are then manipulated into different forms without heat.
CONSTRUCTION PROCESS
Steel is strong. It’s the material that allows engineers and architects to create impressive structures like skyscrapers, stadiums, and shopping malls. Cold-formed steel, specifically, provides a durable alternative to typical stick-built construction. From framing to finishing, cold-formed steel can be used to frame and construct roofs and walls for retail buildings, apartments, commercial shops, and much more.
