Pre-engineered building manufacturer - Supertech India

Pre-engineered metal buildings have become more popular and well accepted substitute for conventional buildings as it is a combination of precast & prefabricated structures. Pre-engineered buildings are generally low rise buildings ideal for warehouse, offices, showrooms, hospitals etc. Although PEB constructions are extensively used worldwide, it is relatively a new concept in India. These buildings can be constructed in less than half time as compared to time taken by traditional construction. Pre-engineered buildings are fully fabricated in the factory after the design and then transported to the site where they are assembled and erected with nut-bolts, thereby reducing the time of completion.

Pre-engineered building concept includes frame geometry which matches the shape thus optimizing the material usage and reducing the total weight of the structure. In recent years, PEB concept in the design of structures has helped in design optimization. The concept of adopting PEB in place of conventional Building has resulted in many advantages, including economy and easier fabrication.

Furthermore, Pre-engineered building system focuses on using pre-determined material stock to fabricate and pre-designed connections to design, thus reducing the time, fabrication and installation. The use of steel is not only economical but also eco-friendly at the time when there is a threat of global warming. 

Some of the important features of PEB include:

• PEB system is computer assisted as structure is first designed on software for a specific use.
• In PEB system a superior corrosion protection of thin coating of resin is applied on the top of Aluminum Zinc.
• A clear organic acrylic resin coating is then applied and thermally cured.
• A colour coating is applied on the top surface to give a bright appearance as per the customer’s choice

Field of Applications of PEB:

• Warehouses
• Factories
• Workshops
• Offices
• Aircraft hangars
• Metro stations
• School

Overall, there is huge potential for PEB in India owing to robust economic growth, increased spending on infrastructure and change in mindset with regard to the use of PEB steel in building.
