A pre-engineered building is a building enclosure system that contains a structural system and often includes a roof and cladding. This structural system contains rugged frames which include roof beams and columns. This building is constructed in a short time when complemented with other engineered sub-systems. This structure can be lighter than the conventional steel building. Pre-engineered buildings are perfect for offices, houses, showrooms, shop fronts, and other applications.
The Major Components Of The PEB System
This PEB building is composed of various sections including hot rolled sections, built-up sections, and elements of cold-formed sections. Here are the major components of the prefabricated building system.
Main Framing Or Vertical Columns
The mainframe contains the building’s strong frame which consists of tapered columns and tapered rafters. These tapered sections are manufactured using the latest technology while flanges are welded. This frame is created by fixing the splice plate of the connecting section together.
Purlins, Girts, And Eave Struts
Purlins, girts, and eave struts are the secondary cold-formed components of building structure. These components are made by just bending the steel coil to give it the desired shape whether it is Z-shape for purling and girts or a C-shape for eave struts. This section doesn’t require any type of welding.
Sheeting And Insulation
Their galvanized profile sheets are permanently coated with special paints for better anti-corrosion properties. When a building is properly insulated with insulation slab/rolls, then the roofing steel sheet is fixed over it.
The Bottom Line!
The pre-fabricated engineered building meets the requirements of flexible separation between large spaces in the building. And even it is suitable for mass production in factories and can integrate advanced products such as energy-saving, waterproofing, and heat insulation. This PEB structure can improve the area utilization rate by decreasing the cross-sectional area of columns and using lightweight panels.
