Description
Pre-Engineered Steel Buildings (PEBs) are steel buildings “tailor-made” based on architecture and engineering requirements of the users.
Typically, a Pre-Engineered Steel Building is made of three distinctive parts:
- Primary framing members (columns and rafters) which are tapered built-up sections, with large depths in areas of higher stress according to the Bending Moment Diagram;
- Secondary structural members (roof purlins, eave struts and wall girts) which are light weight cold-formed “Z” and “C” shaped members or open web steel joists;
- Roll formed profiled sheeting (roof and wall panels).
 All the primary framing members and secondary structural members are pre-sheared, pre-punched, pre-drilled, pre-welded and pre-formed in the factory before shipped to the job site for erection. At the job site, the pre-fabricated components are then fixed and jointed via nut&bolt connections.
Saving material on low stress area of the primary framing members makes Pre-engineered Buildings more economical than conventional steel buildings especially for low rise buildings. Furthermore, Pre-Engineered Steel Building systems focuse on using pre-designed connections and pre-determined material stock to design and fabricate the building structures, thus significantly reducing the time required for design fabrication and installation.
Pre-Engineered Steel Buildings can be fitted with different structural accessories including mezzanine floors, crane runway beams, roof platform, catwalk and aesthetic features such as canopies, fascias, interior partitions etc. The buildings are made water proof when applying our MaxSEAM standing seam roofing system with its roof drainage components and trims. This is a very versatile building system and can be furnished internally to serve all functions, and accessorized externally to achieve unique and aesthetically pleasing architecture designs, making it ideal for applications such as factories, warehouses, workshops, showrooms, Hypermarkets etc.
