STALTECH – Steel in construction
The salon is dedicated to one of the most important construction materials. Steel is used in a variety of forms: from reinforcement in concrete to elements of load-bearing structures. It is characterized by high strength, the possibility of prefabrication and rapid assembly.
STALTECH salon topics:
- steel structures
- metal products
- assembly and joining systems
- steel in facades and elevations
- storage halls
- steel security and protection
The salon will be an interesting space for manufacturers, contractors and investors active in the steel construction sector.
The use of steel in modern construction has many advantages that make it an extremely competitive material compared to concrete or wood. Here are the most important reasons why steel should be used in construction today:
high strength with low weight - the ability to build light but strong structures; allows the realization of large spans and structures without many supports
quick assembly and prefabrication - steel elements can be prefabricated at the factory, and on the construction site you only need to assemble them; this significantly reduces construction time, and thus reduces costs and gives the possibility of a faster return on investment
sustainability and recycling - steel can be 100% recycled - remelted without losing its quality, which is part of the idea of sustainable construction
design versatility and flexibility - steel is easy to form, bend, weld and join; allows the implementation of modern and architecturally complex projects such as skyscrapers, arch structures
resistance to external conditions - properly protected steel is resistant to weathering and corrosion; in industrial construction, steel performs well in harsh environments such as chemical halls or ports
expandability and modifiability - steel structures can be easily expanded, lifted or modified without moving the entire building.
