What are the advantages of using steel as the structural element of Kwik-Build Panels?
Steel has come to the forefront as one of the best and most reliable building materials for residential and commercial construction for many reasons: • Steel has the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any building material. (When combined with EPS’ equally high strength to weight ratio, a powerful assembly is created, superior in structural capacity, yet light, safe and easy to work with. • 100% recyclable • 68-80 % industry recycling rate • Non-combustible, does not burn, nor contribute fuel to spread of fire. • Inorganic — It will not rot, warp, split or crack. • More dimensionally stable than wood – does not expand or contract with moisture content. • Consistent quality – Steel framing components are produced in strict accordance with National standards. There are no regional variations.
