Why Build with Metal: The Benefits of Metal Building Systems
Valley Steel Inc. Construction at part of Nucor Building Systems, every project is custom-designed to meet a customer’s unique needs. With virtually endless design possibilities, it is easy to see why metal building systems have become such a popular and cost efficient building solution among architects and building owners.
Custom Metal Building Systems vs. Conventional Construction
You can choose from a number of construction methods for your building project, so why build with steel? Dollar for dollar and pound for pound, steel is the strongest and most cost-efficient construction material available. Additionally, our metal building solutions utilize Nucor steel, which is 100% recyclable and made up of over 70% post-recycled content. This makes it one of the most environmentally friendly options available on the market, too.
Our custom steel buildings offer clear advantages compared to conventional structures:
Our 25 years working experience make a different construction building.

Cost Effectiveness
On average, our custom building systems cost less than conventional construction — often up to 30% less. This is due to our efficient design process, which utilizes Tekla BIM. In addition, our products and building systems are fabricated on-site in our ISA-accredited facilities, so you can be confident in their quality and code compliance. INCREASED LONGEVITY, MINIMAL MAINTENANCE Metal buildings are extremely durable, with a longer lifespan than wood structures. Steel is also resistant to corrosion, mold and termites. REDUCED FREIGHT With four full-service plants strategically located throughout the United States, we offer building solutions to customers nationwide.
