In the world of pre-engineered buildings (PEBs), where efficiency meets durability, Steelmet Industries’ cold drawn steel bright bars form the critical reinforcement elements that ensure structural integrity. Our precision-engineered bright bars provide the perfect balance of strength and flexibility needed for PEB frameworks that withstand earthquakes, high winds, and heavy loads.
Why Reinforcement Matters in PEB Construction
PEBs demand materials that can handle:
✔ Dynamic load distribution across long spans
✔ Thermal expansion/contraction in varying climates
✔ Corrosion resistance for exterior applications
✔ Easy weldability for fast on-site assembly
Steelmet’s solution delivers:
✓ Consistent yield strength (minimum 345 MPa as per IS 2062)
✓ Tighter tolerances (±0.05mm) for precise fitment
✓ Superior weldability with controlled carbon equivalents
✓ Custom lengths up to 12m to reduce joints
Key Applications in PEB Structures
1. Primary Framework Reinforcement
-
Column and beam stiffeners for high-rise PEBs
-
Moment-resistant connections in seismic zones
-
Haunch reinforcements at roof transitions
2. Secondary Structural Elements
-
Purlins and girts for cladding support
-
Bracing rods for wind load resistance
-
Base plate anchors for foundation stability
3. Specialized Components
-
Crane runway beams in industrial PEBs
-
Mezzanine floor supports
-
Canopy and walkway frameworks
