Cold Form Steel Building: A Sustainable Development
Cold form steel is a dry construction system that reduces the risk of moisture problems and sick building syndrome; every material used can be recycled, and there is less energy consumption during production, ultimately leading to reduced
Reuse of Structural Steel Yields Significant Environmental Savings
Reusing structural steel yields significant environmental savings compared to recycling; in fact, structural steel is seen as an obvious candidate for reclamation and reuse as opposed to the current, common practice of recycling by remelting.
Use Of Steel In Construction of Buildings & Infrastructure
Use of steel in construction accounts for about 65% of the overall consumption of steel in India. It, therefore, plays a major role in the fast growing construction industry of India, which is slated to reach $1.4 trillion
