Criteria For Designing Beautiful Pre-engineered Steel Buildings

Pre Engineered Steel Building - 13/08/2022

Pre-engineered steel buildings (or pre-engineered buildings) are the construction type which is paid attention by many investors nowadays. Not only are pre-engineered buildings beautiful designs but also they are cost-savings, and time-savings for construction. The designing process of pre-engineered buildings plays a very important role before procedure, and erection. So what are the criteria for designing beautiful pre-engineered buildings in 2022?

What is the structure of a pre-engineered steel building?

Nowadays, pre-engineered buildings, particularly those with steel structures, are widely applied in industrial, civil, and commercial constructions. A typical pre-engineered construction consists of four main parts:

  • The foundation has a composition of footing plate, footing brace, footing column with reinforced concrete, and bolts. The foundation of the pre-engineered steel building has the function to hold all of the construction, so it must have a good bearing-load capacity corresponding to the weight of the on-ground construction.
  • The framing includes the standard-trussing system, bracing system, purlin system which are to hold other compositions, transmit its load to the foundation, bear the loads in vertical and in horizontal, increase the hardness and stability of the steel-frame structure. 
  • The sheeting includes basic components such as metal-sheet roofs, metal-sheet walls which have the functions are waterproofing, heat resistant, shielding for the inner space. 
  • The sub-structural system and accessories help to better the effect of usage effectiveness as well as the construction’s aesthetics, including rooftop ventilation system, canopy, door, louver, aisle maintenance, round railing ladder, decorative trim, gutter, etc.

The importance of good design drawings for pre-engineered steel buildings

For any construction, the design drawings are always considered as the most essential factor for having a good work. The design drawings of pre-engineered buildings bring various values like:

  • Showing the abilities to meet the usage demands after having finished the construction. Good design drawings ensure the construction having sufficient details that it needs, and prevents any predictable inconvenience during the using process.
  • Optimizing the building materials choice: the more detailed a design drawings is, the more effective it helps the investors to choose building materials. Moreover, choosing materials in exact details from the beginning, will help the investors and contractors prevent from budget deficit, or material waste.
  • Being a sufficient object describing exact information about the planned construction: the engineers will be pursuant to customers’ demands, and make a design in a short time. In case the customers aren’t satisfied with designing ideas of the engineers, the contractor can easily, quickly fix the drawings; that is also more economical than direct construction (without design drawings).

Commonly-seeing mistakes of pre-engineered steel buildings

Designing pre-engineered buildings is one of the most important processes in construction. But if the design drawings which doesn’t ensure suitability, and great exactness; will considerably affect the construction and the investors in the using process. Designing mistakes that pre-engineered buildings commonly-having are:

  • The design drawings don’t exactly estimate the quantity of materials causing shortage or redundancy in materials.
  • Designing factory constructions with too many columns, rafters will cause many difficulties when arranging commodities.
  • Air ventilating system is appropriately designed, which makes the pre-engineered building oppressive. Simultaneously, ignoring the air ventilator in the designing process will make the investors consume costs for installing air conditioners.
  • The roofs which aren’t added with glowing iron sheets, won’t provide enough natural light, incurring costs for the illumination system in the construction.
  • Over than that, carelessly-designed drawings can affect the construction’s quality, leading to dangerous situations during the process of use. Therefore, the investors need to choose designing solutions which are safe, and suitable with using demands of pre-engineered buildings.
