The development trend of steel structure office building

The steel structure has high seismic performance, no pollution, green, environmental protection, and sustainable development. After 100 years of use, it can be dismantled and reused. These have been recognized by the world. From the perspective of office building structure, the all-steel structure can bring good seismic effect, and it is also one of the most important means of earthquake resistance for steel structure office buildings. This type of building structure has already been widely used in the world.

Today, with the continuous emergence of office building products, steel structure has become an important standard to measure whether an office building has top quality, and it will also become the development trend of office building products in the future. So what are the advantages of steel structures that make today’s office buildings and even urban buildings favor?

Advantages of using all-steel structures in office buildings

Compared with the steel concrete structure, the all steel structure has the characteristics of light weight in terms of the weight of the building. The self-weight of the steel construction is generally about two-thirds or one-half of the steel concrete structure. The light-weight steel structure building will greatly reduce the seismic force and play a role in mitigating, thus protecting the stability of the entire building.

In terms of building toughness, an all steel structure office building has better toughness and elasticity, and will have a certain swing in the event of an earthquake, which can effectively weaken the earthquake strength and prevent serious collapse.

From the perspective of building span, steel structure buildings have super earthquake resistance of large-span spaces.

In terms of waterproofness, the steel building structure has a strong waterproof performance to prevent the backflow of rainwater.

In terms of use cost, it has good thermal insulation performance, can maintain indoor temperature for a long time, and reduce cooling and heating costs. Durable structural components keep maintenance costs to a minimum.

In terms of fire resistance, since the maximum temperature that steel can withstand is 600 degrees, it will melt when it reaches and exceeds 600 degrees. The surface of the steel structure is coated with a fireproof layer, which can resist high temperature combustion for 3 hours, and has excellent fireproof performance.

The superiority of steel structure office building, circular economy and sustainable development have been recognized by the society and gradually expanded the market scope. However, it is far from enough to get the support of national industrial policy and the attention of the competent authorities. At present, the national development force is very weak, and the independent innovation is poor. There are many problems restricting the development of steel structure office buildings. To some extent, it also reflects many problems in the development of steel structure buildings.

In terms of economic policy, more use of steel and more use of steel structures is a strategic national policy for resource utilization, and spending should be encouraged and strengthened. However, there is no short-term benefit return for enterprises, and it is difficult to be popularized and applied.

The largest market, the construction industry, is relatively backward, and there are too many stakeholders in the development of housing construction. Design use is deepening, but protection of rights, liabilities and private rights is insufficient.

Finally, the rapid development of the steel structure business is conducive to the stable development of the national economy. We hope that steel suppliers, iron and steel enterprises and steel structure manufacturing enterprises will jointly form an industrial alliance, jointly make the steel structure industry bigger and stronger, and provide customers with better services.
