What are the pros of using steel?

There are many pros in using steel. Steel is tensile. It has a high strength to weight ratio which means it has high strength per unit mass. So no matter how large the overall structure is, the steel sections will be small and lightweight, unlike other building materials. Also, steel is very durable. Structural steel structures can withstand external pressures such as earthquakes, thunderstorms, and cyclones.

Speed of Construction. Structural steel enhances construction productivity because of its shop fabrication while maintaining tight construction tolerances-that is one pro
