Steel Buildings – The New-age Way of Living!

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

Steel, an alloy of iron and carbon is apparently one of the most versatile and preferred manufacturing and construction materials. Owing to the several qualities of steel, it has become a thing of our day-to-day life.

A steel spoon, a steel washing machine, a steel scalpel, a steel nail-cutter or a steel appliance – steel has an omnipotent kind of presence in our lives, though we don’t realize it very often. With the advent of new methods and techniques, the construction sector too has been innovating and the new-age living gets defined by modular prefabricated or pre-engineered steel fabrications.

Why Steel?

An oft-repeated question, steel has many benefits to suffice this argument. First and foremost, steel contributes to the sustainable development which is the need of the hour. Environment-friendly, steel structures do not contribute to the non-biodegradable waste as steel is recyclable and being more energy-efficient, these are cost-effective too. Steel buildings are slowly and steadily becoming the preferable way of living, for steel is sturdy and strong, is dimensionally stable and unlike other construction material does not shrink, warp and twist with time.

With new technology and architectural innovations, steel no longer remains the bland plain construction material rather offers multifarious new-options and designs. Easy-customization and portability of steel fabrications is another reason why they are being preferred by the architects and construction engineers. Steel has a high strength-to-weight ratio and this renders it the capability to span large distances.

Easy-to-erect, steel fabrications take lesser time for construction and are quite long-lasting as opposed to conventional style buildings.

Carrying Forward the Lineage – WTC Steel Remnants

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009

The Black Day in the history of the world is about to mark its eighth anniversary. The collapse of the colossal Twin Towers of the World Trade Center shattered millions of hearts, and wreaked havoc in about a million plus families in almost all the corners of the world!

Though the world is trying to cope with the aftermath of one of the most disastrous terrorist attacks in the history of mankind, the dark images of the fateful day of September 11, 2001 still haunt countless minds. As the world embarks on its journey forward, a budding campaign under the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, is on its way to promote the reuse of the World Trade Center steel debris.

The campaign is aimed at engineering memorials for commemorating the World Trade Center attacks. The mammoth size wreckage is presently lying in an 80,000 square-foot hangar, Hangar 17 at the Kennedy International Airport and is awaiting its distribution and subsequent reuse. Applications are being received at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey in considerable numbers.

Isn’t it an incredible way of putting the remnants of a memorable steel structure to some real good use? Memorials made of steel would be a perfect way to make the memories of WTC attacks eternal and not let it get lost in the apathetic persistence of time.
