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.

Solutions for a Roof over your Head



The growth of the infrastructure industry in India has fuelled a healthy demand for pre-engineered buildings (PEB). PEB buildings are pre-fabricated steel frames or beams designed and manufactured in the factory of the PEB supplier; and eventually assembled at the site of construction. The steel structures or beams are formed by welding steel plates together. These are then bolted together to form the entire frame of the prefabricated metal buildings.

This new technology is quite prevalent in the west. However, PEB in India has also caught on and is well on the way becoming a standard in Indian constructions; and growing at 30%. One of the pioneers and foremost names in manufacturing companies of PEB is Interarch Buildings. With a presence in India since 1984, Interarch is a most respected PEB manufacturer in the country. Apart from prefab buildings, Interarch is also known for their path-breaking innovation in metal roof and wall systems, under the brand name of TRACDEK. A metal roof is made from metal piece, or tiles; and can be applied over an existing roof. The same material used for metal roofs can be used for siding as well. Interarch’s metal roofing and false ceiling have widespread application in residential and commercial buildings.

The advantages of the metal roofing are:
1. Durability: Metal roofing is far more durable than conventional mortar roofs, sometimes up to 100 years. These can be coated with special paint to minimize fading, shedding dirt and resist the growth of fungus. TRACDEK® from one of the top profile sheeting companies in India, is manufactured in a high quality Galvalume® steel, galvanized steel and aluminum with organic coatings for long life; even in coastal areas where the salty air results in higher corrosion.
2. Metal rooftops with coatings, colors and patterns offer extensive design flexibility. TRACDEK is available in Hi-Rib, Klippon and SS-2000 profiles.
3. There is no denying the strength of metal roofing. It is the most lightweight roofing product - a crucial benefit in seismic areas like India. This also reduces the load on the main PEB structure. TRACDEK® is known for its excellent ability to withstand excessive load.
4. 75% of heat enters a house from the roof and only 25% from the walls due to direct and longest exposure to solar radiation. This heat is absorbed by the roof and the house ceiling that causes the temperature to rise within the house. Consequently, air-conditioning is required to cool down the living space. Metal roofs reflect heat effectively, thus minimizing heat of absorption.  TRACDEK roof systems can be effectively used in combination for optimal thermal characteristics, leading to lowering of air conditioning costs.
5. In addition, metal roofs are fire resistant and environmental friendly. Like all Interarch’s steel buildings, the TRACDEK roof and wall system too is 95% recyclable.
Innovation in technology and design, couple with quality construction has made Interarch one of the top metal construction companies in India. It ranks topmost among the prefabricated structures manufacturer with numerous prestigious projects for satisfied clients.

For example, Interarch has completed India's largest pre-engineered building covering almost 80,000 square meters for Fiat India Pvt. Ltd. in Maharashtra. Interarch is a brand synonymous with pioneering pre-engineered metal building systems in India.
Interarch Buildings is India’s top PEB manufacturer. The company has the distinction of reshaping the market for pre-engineered buildings. At a time when the logistics and construction industry was governed by traditional methods of building, Interarch was the trailblazer in providing technologically advanced prefabricated metal buildings. From metal ceilings to blinds to entire pre-engineered steel buildings in India; Interarch has been a knowledge and industry leader. The company is also known for its radically progressive metal roof and wall systems. In fact, Interarch’s brand of highly sophisticated advanced roofing system, TRACDEK, finds widespread applications in many pre-engineered buildings across India.

Very simply, a PEB structure or pre-fabricated building is a type of building that consists of several factory-built components that are assembled on-site to complete the unit. Some commonly used prefab materials include steel frames for structures, panels made of wood, cement, gypsum and other materials for floors, walls and ceilings, factory-made doors, windows and ventilators. Widely accepted in the west, PEB in India is still in a nascent stage. Most pre-engineered steel buildings are commercial buildings using prefab wall panels, ceiling panels, plasterboards and flooring systems. Applications in residences are still very low. Interarch Buildings introduced India to the advantages of prefab buildings. Reduction in construction time, improved quality and energy-efficiency are the key benefits of pre-fabricated steel buildings. Though prefab materials are 15-20% more costly than the traditional ones, overall buildings costs are lower. Thus, demand is gradually increasing; residential steel buildings are also becoming increasingly popular as commercial steel buildings. Steel buildings are those that have pre-fabricated metal structures fabricated with steel for the internal support and for exterior cladding. Many builders have now turned towards prefab technology to deliver superior constructions.
With the setting up of its manufacturing plants, Interarch is the first company to provide 360 degree solutions for prefab buildings India. The first manufacturing facility was set up at Greater NOIDA, Uttar Pradesh. The second unit is at Uttarakhand, Interarch’s flagship manufacturing facility.
