Pre-fabricated Steel Building Trends Changing

RHINO STEEL SYSTEMS, Denton, Texas BUILDING-- Steel buildings first gained popularity in the industrial sector and subsequently moved to commercial applications, including retail and small manufacturing facilities. Resistance to fire, theft, and longevity are commonly sited in the industry as contributors to this movement. "At Rhino Steel Building Systems, we are seeing an almost across the board move to steel building in virtually all construction activities," according to Alton Ginn, senior sales manager at Rhino. All types of storage facilities are going up using our pre-engineered custom steel building packages including personal storage for people with big toys. It seems like adult toys take up more and more space including vintage cars, helicopters, and boats and just about anything that you can name. Bruce Brown, president of Rhino has observed that many off the shelf storage buildings do not fit these types of storage requirements. "Since our buildings can be customized to align with virtually any kind of engineering requirement, they are really growing in popularity within the personal storage market," according to Brown. Rhino has also seen growing demand within its Steel Frame Homes Division, thus reinforcing the steel revolution in an otherwise "must-build-in wood" industry.

Rhino Steel Building Systems is organized in two division, the Steel Buildings division and Steel frame homes division. Steel buildings can include virtually any type of building application imaginable, such as steel barns, steel garages, horse barn designs, small or giant manufacturing plants, modular industrial office, steel gymnasiums, churches, metal storage buildings, office buildings, horse arenas, aircraft hangars, auto repair buildings and many more. A Rhino metal building is specifically designed to meet wind and snow load requirements for the buyer's specific area of the country as well as other requirements related to the performance of the structure. Rhino does not sell an arch steel building. Rhino's steel frame home division sells a unique "panelized" framing kit, including walls, trusses and all other framing materials and fasteners necessary to complete the basic framing system. Here again, Rhino's all steel homes are not prefab homes but steel frame buildings specifically designed for a wide variety of family needs in varying environments. Also, pre-fab homes do not have the modern architecture that typify rhino all steel homes.
