Pre-engineered buildings vs. Conventional buildings

Over the years, pre-engineered buildings have become extremely popular. They are being used extensively in construction and are preferred over other forms of construction. There are various reasons, which make PEB buildings a far more popular option.

For starters, pre-engineered metal building systems are fabricated making the best possible use of available raw materials and manufacturing facilities that can deliver the structural and design requirements.

Among the various PEB structure manufacturers in the market today, Interarch Buildings is one of the oldest and most trustworthy. The group has been in the market for over 30 years and grown with time. They have seen the technological advancements and been the pioneers in adapting them and changing the face of pre-engineered buildings in India.


Technology in fact has played a vital role in the popularity of pre-engineered structures. These buildings have become far more sophisticated with the advent of computer aided design technology and the advances in the field of manufacturing and raw materials availability.

Pre-engineered metal buildings are known for the efficient use of raw materials. They are about 30 percent lighter and use steel much more efficiently than conventional steel buildings. This in turn reduces the construction cost and margins to PEB structure manufacturers. Pre-engineered steel building suppliers are also able to meet most delivery deadlines much more easily. Once sanctioned prefabricated steel buildings take about 6 to 8 weeks in delivery time, on the other hand conventional steel buildings require a minimum of 20 to 26 weeks. This time is saved enormously became of the design facilities available to pre-engineered structures. Because of computer aided design programs, software, and internationally prevalent designs, the time required to finalize the design for pre-engineered buildings is far less than that required in the conventional process.
                                                                      

Pre-engineered buildings not only provide comfort and speedy construction options, these structures are safer as well. The low weight flexible frames used in their construction offer higher resistance to seismic forces as opposed to the heavy weight structures used in conventional buildings, which are not that resistant to the effect of seismic forces.

The process of using pre-engineered structures is popular both in commercial and residential steel buildings.

Interarch Buildings through its years in the industry has developed some of the most credible pre-engineered structures in the country. The fact that they are a complete solution firm does not just instill confidence in the buyer but also makes the job a lot easier for them. Interarch has facilities for design, manufacturing, logistics, supply and project execution. They are a one stop destination and provide a complete solution for the construction of PEB buildings.

The market for pre-engineered steel buildings is a global one. The list of PEB companies is vast and most of them tend to have a global presence. This global presence also helps in the exchange of technologies and ideas and the delivery of a quality product. It is thus, safe to say that with changing times and technological advancements, this is an industry that is only bound to grow.
