INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS

A prefabricated industrial building (also called a pre-engineered building or PEB) is a structure that is manufactured off-site in standardized components and then transported to the construction site for quick assembly. These buildings are widely used in industrial applications due to their speed of construction, cost-effectiveness, and design flexibility.

Categories of Prefabricated Industrial Buildings

Prefabricated industrial buildings offer a range of advantages that make them a preferred choice in modern industrial infrastructure. Here's a breakdown of the key benefits:

Off-site Manufacturing

  • Structural components (columns, beams, panels, etc.) are fabricated in a controlled factory environment.
  • Reduces dependency on weather and on-site labour.

Quick On-site Assembly

  • Components are bolted or welded together on-site.
  • Faster than traditional brick-and-mortar or RCC construction.

Custom Design + Standardized Engineering

  • Engineered to suit specific industrial requirements (e.g., span, height, load-bearing).
  • Standardized connections make it scalable and modifiable.

Materials Used

  • Mainly steelfor frames, with metal sheets or insulated sandwich panels for walls and roofing.
  • Concrete may be used for foundation and flooring.

Common Components

  • Primary Frame: Steel columns and rafters.
  • Secondary Frame: Purlins, girts, braces.
  • Roofing and Wall Panels: Corrugated metal sheets, sandwich panels.
  • Accessories: Skylights, vents, canopies, doors, windows.

Applications

  • Factories and assembly lines
  • Warehouses and cold storages
  • Workshops and garages
  • Power plants and utility buildings
  • Logistic hubs and distribution centers
  • Site offices and modular training rooms

ADVANTAGES OF PREFAB INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS

01

Speed of Construction

  • Components are manufactured off-site and assembled quickly on-site.
  • Construction timelines are reduced by 30–60%compared to traditional buildings.
  • Ideal for projects with tight deadlines (e.g., warehousing for seasonal demand, rapid factory setups).
02

Cost Efficiency

  • Lower labor costs due to faster construction and reduced on-site work.
  • Minimal material wastage due to factory-controlled precision.
  • Standardized components reduce design and engineering costs.
03

Design Flexibility

  • Easily customizable for span, height, load, and utility requirements.
  • Future expansion is simple – additional bays or sections can be added.
  • Accommodates wide clear spans (up to 60 meters) ideal for warehouses and production floors.
04

Quality Control

  • Fabricated in a controlled factory environment, ensuring high-quality materials and consistent workmanship.
  • Less prone to errors and rework compared to on-site construction.
05

Durability and Strength

  • Steel structures are designed to withstand heavy loads, high winds, and seismic activity.
  • Resistant to pests, rot, and mold unlike wooden or RCC structures.
06

Low Maintenance

  • Steel frames and metal panels require minimal maintenance.
  • Coated materials resist corrosion, fading, and wear over time.
07

Environmentally Friendly

  • Reduced site disturbance and lower waste generation.
  • Recyclable steel components and energy-efficient insulation options.
  • Lower carbon footprint during construction.
08

Portability and Modularity

  • Modular units can be dismantled, relocated, or repurposed.
  • Ideal for temporary industrial setups, construction sites, or project-based factories.
09

Regulatory Compliance

  • PEB structures are designed as per local building codes (e.g., IS 800 in India).
  • Easier to get approvals when using standard engineering practices and materials.
10

Enhanced Safety

  • Controlled assembly process reduces on-site hazards.
  • Fire-rated panels and safe electrical integration enhance long-term safety.

Our Expertise also include erection of Steel Girders and structures.
