Structural Steel Components Information
Build a Backbone with Structural Steel Components
NSB can provide structural hot rolled steel beams, steel joists, and all components needed for your upcoming commercial, industrial, or retail structural steel projects. As commercial construction continues to be a large part of our economy, NSB is here to help you stay on budget and on schedule.
Versatile Building Backbone
Structural steel forms the backbone of many different types of building projects. A long-time favorite for commercial construction, structural steel is quickly becoming a new staple for residential developments and more architecturally demanding structures. It offers nearly unmatchable strength, durability, cost-effectiveness and productivity benefits. Steel frames can be combined with almost any other building material, such as concrete, brick or even glass.
Superior Strength and Durability
There are various grades of steel, but structural steel is particularly notable for its higher carbon count, which enhances its strength. It’s an excellent choice for framing due to its resistance to corrosion, rust, mold, and flames. Additionally, its high tensile strength and ductility make it ideal for buildings in regions prone to severe winds and earthquakes.
Comprehensive Component Supply
NSB can supply any type of structural steel member you require. Here are some examples of what we offer, though our capabilities extend beyond these items: Hot rolled I-beams, Steel joists, Heavy gauge decking, and Pipe struts and metal grating.
Perfect For Every Application

Yes, steel buildings from National Steel Buildings are designed and engineered to meet local building codes and requirements. Our buildings are engineered to comply with the International Building Code (IBC) and are designed to meet specific local requirements including wind loads, snow loads, and seismic requirements based on your building location. We provide all necessary engineering drawings and documentation required for building permits. It’s important to work with your local building department early in the process to ensure all requirements are met. Our team has extensive experience working with building departments across the country and can help guide you through the permitting process.
The construction timeline for a steel building depends on several factors including the size and complexity of the building, site preparation requirements, and weather conditions. Generally, pre-engineered steel buildings can be constructed much faster than traditional buildings. The manufacturing process typically takes 4-8 weeks after order approval, and on-site erection can often be completed in just a few days to a few weeks depending on the building size. Smaller buildings may be erected in 1-3 days, while larger commercial or industrial facilities may take 2-6 weeks. Our experienced erection crews at ProTrades, LLC, an NSB Company, work efficiently to ensure your building is completed on schedule.
The cost of metal buildings varies significantly based on several factors including size, location, design complexity, and additional features. Generally, steel buildings are more cost-effective than traditional construction methods. Factors that influence pricing include building dimensions (width, length, height), wall and trim color selections, insulation requirements, doors and windows, and local building codes. At National Steel Buildings, we offer factory-direct pricing that can save you thousands compared to traditional construction. We recommend using our online quote tool to get an accurate price for your specific building needs.

Steel buildings are incredibly versatile and can be used for a wide variety of applications. Common uses include agricultural facilities (equipment storage, livestock stables, hay storage), commercial buildings (retail space, corporate headquarters), industrial facilities (warehouses, manufacturing plants), garages and auto repair shops, aviation hangars, boat storage facilities, churches and religious buildings, recreational buildings (gyms, sports facilities, riding arenas), and residential applications (workshops, barns, and even homes). The flexibility of steel building design allows for customization to meet virtually any need, from small personal storage buildings to large commercial and industrial facilities.
National Steel Buildings stands behind the quality of our products and services. We offer comprehensive warranties on our steel building systems. The specific warranty terms depend on the components and materials used in your building. Typically, our steel building systems come with manufacturer warranties covering materials and workmanship. Paint and finish warranties are also included, often ranging from 20 to 40 years depending on the coating system selected. We recommend discussing warranty details with your sales representative during the quoting process to understand the specific warranty coverage for your building. Our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction means we work to resolve any issues that may arise during and after construction.
Steel buildings offer numerous advantages over traditional construction methods. They are highly durable, resistant to fire, pests, and extreme weather conditions. Steel buildings are cost-effective with lower construction costs, reduced insurance premiums, and minimal maintenance expenses. They also feature quick construction times due to pre-engineered designs, meaning faster delivery and installation compared to traditional buildings. Additionally, steel requires minimal upkeep and resists rot, mold, and corrosion for years to come.
