Essential Advices for Building Beautiful and Sustainable Prefabricated Houses

Pre Engineered Steel Building - 26/07/2024

Today, prefabricated steel buildings are used across all areas of the economy and various industries for diverse purposes, including commercial buildings (shopping centres, hotels, supermarkets…), factories, warehouses, residential applications (houses, public works) and others (animal barns or fertiliser storage)… What advice do designers and constructors have when preparing to build beautiful, durable, and safe prefabricated houses? Let’s explore this in the article below.

1. The concept of prefabricated steel buildings

Prefabricated steel buildings feature standardised prefab steel frame structures comprising column and truss systems, galvanised purlins (wall and roof), wall sheets, roof sheets, and other accessories (decorative trims, gutters, galvanised bracing cables, ridge ventilation,…) manufactured and assembled based on technical design drawings. The construction process includes 3 main stages: Design; component fabrication; and on-site erection construction. Among these, the design of prefabricated steel buildings is the most important step and plays a decisive role in the aesthetics, investment capital application, and functionality of the building.

2. Common types of prefabricated steel buildings

To meet the evolving societal demands, prefabricated steel buildings have become increasingly diverse. Currently, there are types such as low-rise buildings, high-rise buildings, single-slope buildings, double-slope buildings, and arch roof buildings. Divided by purpose of use, there are common types of prefabricated steel buildings:

  • Commercial buildings: movie theatres, shopping centres, supermarkets, convention centres, office buildings, hotels – resorts,…

4. Tips for building beautiful prefabricated houses

  • Design: Opt for a rational structural design solution that consistently ensures functionality, safety, sustainability, and aesthetics. This design significantly influences the overall project cost and must be meticulously detailed to prevent unexpected expenses during construction.
  • Material quality: Standard quality materials will ensure the longevity of the building, helping to save maintenance costs. A worthy investment will bring long-term benefits compared to choosing low costs but incurring expenses later.
  • Erection quality: It’s essential to choose a reputable, experienced contractor because in prefabricated steel buildings, all components are connected to each other. Even a single oversight can seriously affect the entire structure of the building.

Furthermore, ensuring safety during assembly is an important requirement in the construction and erection of prefabricated steel buildings.
