Recommended use: Warehousing, Fleet Facilities, Manufacturing, Mini Storage, Offices, Retail Outlets, Strip Malls, Housing infrastructure, Storefronts

Read more about types of steel buildings here.

As experienced builders in the construction industry, we always keep our eye out for durable, versatile, readily available, and affordable materials.

Steel has stood the test of time for reliability in all areas when building commercial buildings.

Steel is becoming the preferred solution for a wide range of commercial builds including:

Warehousing
Manufacturing
Storage
Offices
Retail outlets
Housing infrastructure

At Iris Construction Management, we believe that steel is the right choice for commercial builds. Of course, our team encourages you to do your own research on commercial building materials, but we will lay out why steel is becoming widely recognized as a versatile building material and more attractive to business owners looking to build commercial buildings.

Steel Buildings

Steel is playing an increasingly popular role in commercial buildings. There are a ton of great reasons to build a commercial building with steel. If you are thinking about using steel in your next build, consider these construction advantages:

Quick construction

Time is your most valuable resource. More time spent on a construction site means a higher budget and a longer wait until you are able to occupy the space, which means less revenue. Prefabricated commercial steel buildings make handling and installation fast.

Affordability

The two biggest concerns in construction are time and money. Steel will save you money in reduced labour costs, less waste, and maintenance in the long term.
Steel structures are energy efficient and compatible with insulation packages to save you even more on your heating and cooling bills.

Weather Resistance

Steel is moisture and weather-resistant — including negative double-digit weather and high-humidity areas. Another bonus is not having to deal with mould or termites.

Flexibility

The size of a commercial shop building design can be as little or as big as you want, depending on your needs. Each steel structure can be tailored to fit your business objectives. An added bonus is that steel structures can be adapted and redeveloped if you need future alterations to your building.

Design

Now more than ever, the look of your business matters. Steel can be an aesthetically pleasing choice with design options like shutters, windows, doors, colours, and the option to incorporate other materials like brick on exterior walls.

Sustainability

Steel is the most eco-friendly choice. It’s a highly recycled product and does not contribute to deforestation. Plus, there is very little waste when constructing prefabricated commercial steel buildings.

Safety

Strong, durable, and fire-resistant — steel buildings are able to keep out or contain fires, keeping your team and the surrounding area safe.

The commercial steel building cost is an investment in the future of your business. In fact, your steel building could end up appreciating in value due to the longevity of steel.

Cost saving solution

Over time, the cost of wooden structures continues to add up, taking away from your bottom line. However, the savings of prefabricated commercial steel buildings increase over time. While the raw cost of wood may be cheaper initially, you will see immediate savings when you see the cost efficiency of steel compared to wood in areas like:

Freight
Assembly
Occupancy
Maintenance
Growth

Save yourself future headaches when you choose steel for your commercial project. Slight shifts in warping and rotting wood can lead to huge problems with the structural integrity of your build down the road. Even aesthetically, steel holds up over time.

Let the Iris team be your partner in construction for your next build. Our team of designers and project managers are professional, experienced and determined to give you a positive experience in building your commercial steel building. Contact us today for more information.
