One of the main reasons that the metal building construction field is growing is that steel is a durable, easy to produce and inexpensive product. It is stronger than any other building product pound for pound. Much of the steel used in any given metal building you might see today is made from recycled material-and over 50 percent of it can be recycled again for use in another building. Therefore, metal is a “green” building material-a concept that is increasing in popularity with both builders and consumers. It has the ability to withstand some of the most damaging weather conditions as well as being fire resistant-insurance companies typically love it.

I agree 100% steel buildings are the way of the future, they go up quick last long. Steel buildings can be disassembled and reassembled and they are expandable. With a galvanized roof the suns beams get reflected off keeping the building temperature cooler, there is no greener roof than a steel building roof. With a steel building you always have the option to add skylights or solar panels which are both energy efficient and save you money over time.
