HOT VS COLD ROLLED STEEL
HOT ROLLED STEEL
Hot rolled steel sections are produced at high temperatures in a vast range of sizes and used to create robust, welded or bolted portal frame structures.
KEY FEATURES
Heavy-duty strength: Suitable for large spans, cranes, mezzanines, and high wind loads.
Fabrication-based: Members are cut, drilled, and welded in a fabrication workshop before site erection.
Customisable: Designs can be tailored to suit load requirements, layouts, and client specifications.
Long lifespan: Excellent durability and resistance to deformation under heavy loads.
BEST SUITED FOR
Industrial sheds, workshops, warehouses, and buildings with large open spans or high structural loads.
Projects prioritising strength, longevity, and design flexibility.
COLD ROLLED STEEL
Cold rolled steel buildings use lightweight, roll formed members
(C purlins, channels, studs) assembled into prefabricated frames.
KEY FEATURES
Lightweight and economical: Lower material cost and faster production using roll-forming lines.
Bolt-together assembly: Components are pre-punched and delivered for on-site installation.
Speed of construction: Ideal for quick turnaround, smaller or modular structures.
Limited span and load capacity: Not suitable for heavy industrial use or large cranes.
BEST SUITED FOR
Small to medium sheds, garages, and farm buildings where cost and speed outweigh heavy structural demands.
