The concept of Portability and Portable Metal Frame Buildings

Portability Conceptualized

Metal Frame Buildings

Portability is one of the latest concepts of modern world. Everything today is heading towards portability. We all have heard about portable phones (which we call cell phones), portable computers (laptops), portable chargers, portable DVD-players, portable air conditioners, portable this, portable that, hence everything is almost portable nowadays. And, here comes the concept of portable buildings.

Portable Metal Frame Buildings

Portable metal frame buildings (also known as portable steel frame buildings) are the best innovation taking into account the portability concept in the modern world. This term is composed of two brilliant ideas. Firstly, it is metal frame, secondly, it’s portable. A combination of these two innovations gives emergence to a brilliant product that has more benefits within it.

Structures that are composed of a robust internal frame made up of completely galvanized steel are known as metal framed buildings/steel framed buildings. Metal frame buildings that could be disassembled after several years of its usage and carried to another location is known as portable metal frame buildings.

These structures are of great use. They are sturdy and robust, can withstand any kind of harsh climatic upheavals, and are durable and reliable.

 Merits of Having Portable Metal Frame Buildings

Ø  Ranchers and farmers will not have to bargain for structures every time they shift to another location.

Ø  They won’t require purchasing brand new structures every time they relocate.

Ø  They could have invested their precious amount of time in planning and creating the design of the present building, based on their particular needs. A considerable time, energy and cash is likely to be saved with moving the present building together with them. So, portable metal frame buildings are necessary as they can be moved from one location to another easily and safely

Ø  Portable metal frame buildings (or steel frame buildings) are built and engineered specifically for relocation and mobilization thus, their quality and durability is never impacted through their mobilization. Provided the assembling, disassembling and mobilization takes place properly and appropriately.

Ø  The standard of one’s current building could possibly be advanced and there may be likelihood such set ups are unavailable or very expensive in the new place.

Ø  Portable metal frame buildings can also save farmers the cash on running costs and construction taxes that they will be required to pay out just in case constructing new metal frame buildings.

Construction Process of Reinforced Steel Frame Buildings

Steel frame buildings differ from steel buildings, though they have something in common and that is their internal structure. Both of them have internal structure made up of steel. This material is regarded as one of the sturdiest materials that is available for construction. Internationally, steel buildings are steel frame buildings are regarded as the best, durable and reliable structures. A reinforced steel frame structure is one that is a combination of steel and concrete. Steel is incorporated into concrete structures for extra durability, strength and reliability.

Reinforced steel frame buildings are one of the most important landmarks in the construction history. These structures are regarded as one of the strongest structures. Many of the international projects such as international stadiums, tall buildings, arenas, shopping malls, and institutes are built on this model.

Prefabricated Buildings

Reinforced steel frame buildings are actually pre-engineered in a controlled factory environment. The walls, doors, windows and roofs are already manufactured in the factory, which are transported to the construction site for erection. These kinds of buildings are also known as prefabricated steel buildings.

There are a number of reasons why prefabricated steel buildings are superior to other structures. The components of prefabricated steel buildings are already built in company under supervision of a quality assurance team that looks after the quality guidelines of the product. This ensures that the best modules are manufactured for construction and hence making the building components made perfect. Secondly, building modules at factory helps avoid creating clutter and garbage on the construction site.

Construction Process

The construction process of reinforced steel frame buildings is different from steel buildings and steel framed buildings. They entail a construction process that lasts for months. However, the result is outstanding. The steel frame is developed on the site and the wall, doors, windows and other exterior and interior accessories are built in factory. The process involves building the foundation and the basis of the walls, creation of steel frame, setting the wall sections, Shotcrete the sections, finishing the walls.

Developing Steel Frame

In some projects, this is the second phase of construction. Whatever is the case, steel framed structures are created on the site and wall sections are built at factory, which are brought to the site then for incorporation into the steel frame.

Building the Wall sections

This entails building the walls inside the firm. The walls are carefully built under strict supervision. Although the wall sections are built according the size of the structure, these wall sections are only built for huge structures. For small structures, only steel frame is enough. These panels are then shifted to the construction site to install them into the structure.

Shotcrete of Wall Sections

The wall sections are erected and incorporated into the steel frame. They are tied to the steel frame and then sprayed heavily with a type of concrete through a machine. This process is known as Shortcrete. Concrete beam with incorporated steel frame is prepared this way. This process of steel frame buildings could be followed by post construction activities such as painting and decorating.
