Steel Buildings
Steel buildings have many uses. Around the farm, steel buildings can be used as barns, garages, riding arenas, and loafing sheds. Wood may look lovely, but steel is definitely more utilitarian. Once upon a time, I was snobby about wood vs. metal (the decrepit metal outbuilding that came with my old house had something to do with that), but I've come around to appreciate the advantages that steel buildings offer.
I'm pretty sure that once you've looked at all the alternatives, you will too.
In terms of time and costs, steel buildings often win out over other methods of construction. Watch a few of these babies go up, and you'll agree that steel can go up much faster than wood.
Steel buildings come in a huge array of shapes and sizes--from the smallest shed to the largest commercial structure. Their immense clear spans allow for a great deal of interior flexibility.
Aside from farm and industrial applications, airplane hangers and sports/recreation centers are some of the largest steel buildings.
