Steel Buildings do a Better Job of Standing up to Hurricanes

In the wake of hurricanes like Harvey and Irma, a lot of people are rebuilding. This is a good time to remind everybody that steel buildings are far more hurricane proof than wood-frame buildings. Steel is always more resistant to hurricane damage than wood, but by applying extra standards to your building it can be as hurricane proof as anything out there. The buildings in Key West that survived the direct hit from Hurricane Irma were nearly all built to hurricane proof standards. So, if you’re thinking about rebuilding or putting up a new building in an area that’s prone to hurricanes, a steel building is a really attractive option. Contact us to see how you can get started.
