What is a steel framed building system?
DEFINING A PRE-ENGINEERED METAL BUILDING SYSTEM
A steel framed building system creates an incredibly strong, long-lasting, affordable structure.
The flexibility of pre-engineered steel buildings makes them the ideal building solution for most low-rise agricultural, aviation, commercial, industrial, recreational, and storage buildings.

What exactly is a Steel Framed Building System?
A metal building system is a system designed by a sophisticated steel structural software according to the design criteria and parameters.
The software then generates detailed drawings for the fabrication of each framing component of the prefabricated metal building.
Factory-trained professionals manufacture each piece of the framing to these exacting specifications. Fabricators cut, shape, weld, drill, punch, paint, and mark each framing piece for quick identification.

Pre-engineered Steel Building components
The steel building framing erects in a systematic, logical order:
• Factory-produced steel column and rafter beams bolt together with heavy-duty steel bolts and nuts, forming a single frame.
• These frames bolt to the foundation, creating a “bay”— the area between two frames.
• Steel girts are attached to the sides of the columns for cladding support.
• Steel purlins connect the frames across the roof.
• Typically, insulation (sandwich) panels screw to the roof and exterior walls forming the “skin” of the prefabricated metal building. However, a metal building system may also be finished with block, brick, glass, aluminium, tilt-up concrete, or any other traditional exterior finish.
In addition, all Tekmetsan pre-engineered steel buildings include an anchor bolt diagram and a set of plans for the erection works.
