Some differences between PEB (prefabricated steel structure building) and conventional steel structures

Assembly method: The PEB structure is assembled at the construction site with the help of nuts and bolts, making it easy to disassemble and move; the various components of conventional steel structures are usually connected using welds and bolts.

Application scenarios: PEB is commonly used in general industrial and civil buildings; heavy-duty steel structures in conventional steel structures are mainly used in large-scale industrial and manufacturing facilities, such as factories and warehouses in aviation, automobile and other industries.

Construction features: PEB construction usually only requires one on-site instructor and about a few workers to build the skeleton of the house, and construction is fast; heavy steel structures in conventional steel structures require large lifting equipment and professional construction teams.

Material specifications: PEB components are relatively lightweight; heavy-duty steel construction materials have large specifications that require the use of large processing equipment for processing and transportation.
