Abstract
Pre-engineered buildings are mainly prepared using predesigning and prefabrication process. The advancement in the pre-engineered building construction approach involves time limitation, cost-effectiveness, improved structural behaviour and advanced architectural view. Pre-engineered buildings are becoming an effective replacement of conventional steel buildings in every aspect. It shows more advanced results in case of cost comparison, construction time, quality parameters and architectural point of view. The main objective of the current study is to compare pre-engineered steel buildings and conventional steel building in every aspect. A pre-engineered building was designed and then comparative analysis was done concerning a conventional building with the same configuration. The software which was mainly used for the entire designing and analysis part was Bentley STAAD PRO and it was found that the Pre-engineered building gives more sustainable results as compared to conventional steel buildings. It was also found that, if the construction process was according to conventional methods it will be more time consuming and more budget consuming at every aspect, so pre-engineered buildings usage should be implemented as the construction as well as the maintenance cost of pre-engineered buildings is very less as that of conventional steel buildings. One more aspect was taken into consideration, the materials used for the construction of the pre-engineered buildings were pre-fabricated and then assembled in such a way that the materials are both reusable and recyclable for future usage. So concerning this aspect, the whole structural components, as well as the structure, can be moulded and shifted to any of the other locations also and that will fulfil the major aspect of sustainable construction .
