It is called the production of the entire carrier system carrying the steel construction structure from steel. In general, steel construction is preferred in areas with high earthquake risk, or in structures that need to be spread longitudinally over a large area, in order to increase the flexibility.
Areas that allow a large number of people to be present at the same time, such as football and basketball fields, aircraft hangars, large warehouses are generally made of steel. The reason for using steel construction in such structures is that it is more convenient and faster compared to reinforced concrete in terms of price.
The installation of steel construction structures is quite fast. Although it can be disassembled and reassembled many times, it is long-lasting. Since it is 100% recyclable, it will never lose its properties and never pollute the environment.
Of course, living spaces can also be made from steel construction. Since all elements, including the main carrier body, are made by using rivets and smart screws in houses built using steel, the resistance against earthquakes increases, and no cracks are formed in the structure in the impacts of the earthquake.
For example; Although a 2-storey villa made of reinforced concrete can be built in 3 months to 6 months, a 2-storey villa that will be built using steel construction can be completed in 45 to 60 days.
The Eiffel Tower in Paris, which is known by everyone, is 7300 meters long and is completely made of steel construction. Although it has experienced many earthquakes, it is still standing upright.
After 1999, steel prices in our country have been reduced by government intervention, and steel construction buildings are encouraged in our country, which is in an earthquake zone.
