Steel is one of the most generally utilized materials of construction time. Without the use of steel, the structure doesn't make a solid while seismic tremors like earthquakes Etc happen. Steel structures are susceptible to various ecological conditions. There are a few properties wherein solid structures are preferred over steel and the utilization of steel is consistently expanding everywhere throughout the world in development projects and also in civil engineering-related fields. According to 'Lorraine Farrelly' (Author of construction+materiality), before the utilization of steel in development building, became a common practice, the weight of the structure material and the forces of gravity and pressure defined the endurance, chance of stability in structure, and its architectural possibilities. And now we are going to elaborate on the advantages of steel structure.

Advantages of steel structures

1. Steel is moderately cheap when compared with other structure materials

2. Steel structures are highly fire-resistant when contrasted to a wooden structure as wood is a combustible material and less fire-resistant when contrasted with RCC structure.

3. One of the advantages of using a steel structure in development is the ability of steel to span greater distances with steel ceiling joists. This enables architects to grow their choices, enabling them to make new/huge space utilizing steel items that simply weren't accessible with different materials.

4. Steel can be easily & effectively manufactured and delivered greatly. Steel structures can be delivered off-site at shop floors and after that gathered nearby. This spares time and increases the efficiency of the general development process.

5. Steel structures can withstand outside weights, for example, earthquakes,  thunderstorms, and cyclones. A well-fabricated steel structure can last  more than30 years whenever looked after well.

6. Flexibility is one of the great advantages of steel structure, which means that it tends to be planned according to the design requirements. This plans a steel structure so that it can withstand heavy winds or earthquakes, especially in the case of the bridges or tall towers.

7. Because of simple-to-make portions of a steel structure, it is hassle-free to install and assemble them on-site, and furthermore, there is no need of estimating and cutting of parts nearby.

8. Some of the common advantages of using steel buildings are Design, Strength and Durability, Light in Weight, Easy Installation and Speed in Construction, Versatile, Flexibility, Ductility, Easy Fabrication in Different Sizes, Fire Resistance, Pest and Insect Resistant, Moisture and Weather Resistance,  Adaptability, Cost-effective, Environment Friendly, Energy Efficiency, Improved Construction Quality, Temporary Structures, Safe and Resistant and Risk Index.
