Steel structure building are more environmental friendly?

Steel structure building are more environmental friendly?

2021-06-22

Nowadays environmental problems seems more serious than ever, from year to year, more and more extreme climate happens. Temperature changed drastically in different place of the world. As more greenhouse gas is released to atmosphere, global temperature raises and lead to all sorts of hazard. According to scientist, north polar-Arctic Circle where covered by ice frozen for million years has melt for decades now. This leads to raise of sea level which further cause other problem from happening. According to data website CO2 emission has been exponential growth.

As this become a problem, most country governments has propose some sort of carbon dioxide related policies to achieve a less CO2 release future. For example Chinese government had set up a plan for a balance of CO2 release and absorption in 15 years. The most significant procedure is reducing of low level manufacture industry, which cost the least but release the most CO2.

Steel structure provides another path for CO2 release reduction as its properties. Compare to traditional construction it requires much resources and CO2 releases. For a general brick and reinforced concrete structure house, it takes months if not years to build up. During this time you have all these worker, machine and vehicles producing numerous amount of CO2. By using steel structure, you effectively reduce the construction cycle closed in a month, if not lesser. Compare to the long construction period of traditional casting of reinforced structure.



Other than CO2 emission, there are also recycle problem. Traditional concrete house need to be fully disassembled for recycle of rebar. Container house is much easier for recycle after use.

Frames and surface sheet of these sandwich panels are cold corrugated which avoid waste of fuel combustion that produces the most CO2 emission.

By using sandwich panels that provide amazing thermal insulation. Thermal insulation is extreme important for regions that have temperature too high or low. It keeps the internal temperature in a suitable temperature for the user. This means users have less time needed to turn on air condition. This property provides customer better cost efficient in long run.

From another aspect of the construction period, there are difference between traditional construction and installation of container house. Traditional construction require more labour and equipment which increases the emission. The longer the construction period the more it produces. New steel structure require much less time for construct. Casting of concrete require install and disassemble of supporting structure which solved by steel floor decking sheets. It can be considered as part of the supporting for the floor. Moreover, it can reduce the floor thickness by having the same supporting strength.
