Steel Buildings, each link has Five to six Steel Buildings to view, From Standard to Triples

Building portions that are shop assembled prior to shipment to site are commonly referenced as pre-fabricated.
The smaller steel buildings tend to be pre-fabricated or simple enough to be constructed by anyone.
The larger steel buildings require skilled construction workers, such as ironworkers, to ensure proper and safe assembly.
There are five main types of structural components that make up a steel frame – tension members–
1— compression members.
2— bending members.
3— combined force members and their connections.
4— Tension members are usually found as web and chord members in trusses and open web steel joists.
Ideally tension members carry tensile forces, or pulling forces, only and its end connections are assumed to be pinned.
5— Pin connections prevent any moment(rotation) or shear forces from being applied to the member.
Compression members are also considered as columns, struts, or posts.
They are vertical members or web and chord members in trusses and joists that are in compression or being squished.
Bending members are also known as beams, girders, joists, spandrels, purlins, lintels, and girts.
Each of these members have their own structural application, but typically bending members will carry bending moments and shear forces as primary loads and axial forces and torsion as secondary loads.
Combined force members are commonly known as beam-columns and are subjected to bending and axial compression.
Connections are what bring the entire building together.
They join these members together and must ensure that they function together as one unit.
Exterior roof panels are usually a single continuous length from eave to ridge line for gable style buildings or from low eave to high eave on single slope or shed style buildings.
Many manufacturers provide minimum 24 gauge (nominal: 0.0239 inch; 0.61 mm) thick sheet steel in self-framing roof designs.
Exterior wall panels are usually a single continuous length from the base channel to the eave of the building except where interrupted by wall openings.
Many manufacturers provide minimum 24 gauge (nominal: 0.0239 inch; 0.61 mm) thick sheet steel in self-framing wall designs.
Diaphragm or racking strength of the wall and roof systems are dependent on issues such as the manufacturer’s panel lap seam assembly and should be qualified by full scale testing.
Openings reduce the local structural capacity of the wall or roof assembly and should be considered in the original structural design.
The manufacturer may provide guidance for limited field modifications for additional openings.
