While timber is cheaper to obtain, a steel beam is more durable and is versatile as it can be used for residential, commercial and industrial applications
Steel is a non-combustible material and will not bend/warp to fire. A structural steel beam can mean the difference between minor fixes to your home or rebuilding it entirely.
Steel is 100% recyclable. A prefabricated structural steel beam can contain up to 25% of recycled steel and is the easiest material to reuse.
Steel is resistant to wear and tear from Sydney’s unpredictable environmental elements. Steel beams provide a straighter finish, providing your home pristine roof lines, ceilings and walls.
Compared to building materials like concrete, steel is intrinsically lighter due to its higher strength and stiffness. With lightness comes a reduced load on foundations and better performance for ground conditions
