This is one of the most common questions we get from clients. Flexibility on the client’s part with regards to delivery and timelines is a major cost saver. However, cheaper does not always necessarily mean better. It is no secret that some manufacturers compromise with quality standards to keep production costs low. While that may seem a profitable proposition in the beginning, design and engineering, if compromised with, can end up leading to low-quality construction. This will increase long-term costs arising from maintenance and repair work.
3. What Kind of Steel is Used in my Steel Building and What are the Components?
