The main factors affecting the cost of steel structure plant

Steel structure workshp mainly refers to the plant whose load-bearing members are steel structures. Due to the increase of steel production in China, steel structure has started to be used in many places. Steel structure buildings have short construction period and low investment cost. So they are very common in the construction industry. However, the cost of steel structure plant is different due to the span of the plant, the design scheme, technical requirements, and the geographical differences. So what are the factors that affect the cost of steel structure plant?

The three main factors affecting the cost of steel plant.

1. The design factor affects the cost of steel plant

Design factors: a reasonable design can save raw materials and affect the cost of steel plants. Different design solutions are an important factor affecting the amount of steel, which directly affects the total cost.

The cost of foundation is closely related to the geological conditions of the building. The foundation duration is about 25% of the total duration. The cost of foundation construction is 15% of the total cost of metal buildings. The design should pay attention to the geological report of the building's location, choose a reasonable type of base, and control the base surface and depth of the foundation, which plays a decisive role in the total cost.

2.Raw materials

Steel and plates are the main components of the workshop, accounting for about 70%-80% of the total cost of the building. The fluctuation of the market price of steel raw materials directly affects the value of the building. Different section size, steel grade, wall thickness and roof will cause price difference. Therefore, raw materials are the main factor affecting the construction cost of steel factory buildings.

3. Construction factors

Construction time is also part of the cost. The proficiency of installation technology is the primary factory of the construction period. The construction of steel plant is a systematic project involving a wide range of factors affecting the construction. Duration, policy changes and extensive work can all affect the cost of a plant. Having an efficient, skilled installation team can save the owner a lot of time and money!
