How Schools can benefit from steel structures

Schools are a place of learning and discovery, where students can grow into their full potential. It's important that school environments be safe and secure for both teachers and students. Creating a sense of safety can help students grow into their full potential and provide parents with the piece of mind that their children are in an environment that is comfortable. Steel structures are an excellent approach to provide maximum safety while maintaining a visually appealing building.

At Bradfabs we work closely with schools all over the country to manufacture a variety of steel products. We provide our clients with the knowledge and expertise they need to make students feel safe and secure in their schools. Our detailed knowledge of building controls and high-quality service means schools feel comfortable to use us again and again. Our structures come in all shapes and sizes and have many different functionalities so you’re not limited by the endless possibilities of our products.

Benefits of steel structures for schools:

Durability: Steel by nature is a very durable material that can be welded and formed into different shapes. Steel's durability makes it an ideal material for products that will be exposed to harsh conditions such as the weather, making it perfect for schools who are looking to invest in an outdoor fire escape. Steel is also widely used in construction projects due to its strength and durability. For example, steel is often used in bridges because of its ability to withstand large amounts of weight.

Doesn’t corrode easily: Steel, unlike other materials, is not easily damaged by natural elements such as water or air, making it perfect for outdoor use. There are also several corrosion-prevention technologies available, such as galvanised steel and stainless steel, which can both delay and prevent the corrosion process.
Easy to maintain: Steel structures are relatively simple to clean and maintain, making them ideal for busy schools that don't want to worry about their outdoor buildings. Steel is also inexpensive, making it simple to replace or repair as necessary.
Flexibility: Steel can be welded and shaped into various shapes, allowing it to be utilised to make almost anything. This makes it an excellent choice for schools seeking a one-of-a-kind structure to improve their students' learning environments.
Longevity: Steel is a structure that will last you a very long time because of its capacity to tolerate harsh circumstances without losing structural integrity. This is ideal for schools that have a limited budget and want to get the most of their money.
Added layer of safety: When working with steel, fabricators must adhere to a strict set of safety requirements that serve to protect the safety of both the structure and the fabricators. These safety requirements might serve to set your mind at ease while also providing an additional degree of protection for the children.
Fast construction: Steel is relatively simple to install once on-site and may be completed in as little as a day, depending on the size of the project. This can help to reduce the amount of disruption your students will experience.
