General Steel utilizes only premium quality components in its buildings. Solid I-Beam construction is utilized along with tough and durable 26 gauge commercial grade sheeting. The ribbed roofing is a high yield 80,000 psi which is highly resistant to hail or any other impacts, so dimpling or dent damage is greatly reduced. A 50 year structural warranty is provided for all buildings supplied by General Steel that covers everything structural and is not limited to only the I-Beams like other warranties.
The rapid design, fabrication, and erection cycle with steel will help the framing system to finish sooner. Erection is easy when you purchase a building from “The General” and can save you money when compared to more conventional construction materials such as wood. All building shell components for your strip mall are pre-cut, drilled, and welded. The building arrives at your site ready to be assembled. Pre-marked parts help to eliminate on-site assembly problems. The building simply bolts together and, when completed, provides for a weather-tight interior environment that eliminates leaks.
In today’s energy and environmentally-conscious world the use of recycled products is greatly encouraged. Steel is America’s #1 recycled product and surpasses aluminum, glass, paper, and plastic combined. Recycled steel retains its strength and integrity. General Steel uses recycled steel in all of its buildings.
