The Investigation of Steel Structure Used in Residential Buildings

Abstract:

Steel building construction is an important aspect of architecture system in the world. With the rapid development of the steel industry, contemporary steel housing in many developed countries presented dominant position in the market. In this paper, the advantages of steel structure in sustainability, strength, appearance and other aspects are summarized. Also, the application in residential buildings are analyzed, especially in green buildings. Furthermore, a study on the construction of steel building of I-Magic Cube in Shandong Jianzhu University, China are investigated and discussed. And in the example of Shandong Jianzhu Universitys "I-magic Cube", the construction of steel buildings and steel housing and other aspects are analyzed and discussed.
