COLD-FORM BUILDINGS
Arco Building Systems offers cold formed steel buildings designed for strength, efficiency, and long-term performance. Cold formed construction is a versatile building system commonly used for commercial, light industrial, and specialty applications where design flexibility and durability are key priorities.
Our team works closely with owners, contractors, and design professionals to supply cold formed steel buildings that meet project requirements, local building codes, and budget goals.
What Is a Cold Formed Steel Building?
Cold formed steel buildings are constructed using light gauge galvanized steel framing members that are shaped at room temperature from steel coils. These components are engineered and assembled on site to create the building’s structural framework.
Because the materials are lighter and more standardized, they are well suited for projects that benefit from efficient detailing and repeatable construction methods.
Benefits of Cold Formed Steel Construction
Cold formed steel buildings offer several advantages that make them an effective solution for many applications:
Efficient drawings and lead times – Cold formed steel systems typically allow for faster drawing production and quicker material delivery compared to many structural systems.
Strength and durability – Steel framing is noncombustible and resistant to rot, pests, and warping.
Design flexibility – Supports a wide range of wall layouts and finishes.
Sustainable construction – Steel is recyclable and often contains recycled content.
Code compliance – Engineered to meet local wind, snow, and seismic requirements.
Common Uses for Cold Formed Steel Buildings
Cold formed steel construction is particularly well suited for smaller scale buildings and projects with moderate spans, where efficiency and flexibility are key considerations.
Common applications include:
- Self storage facilities
- Shops
- Garages
- Man caves / “She Sheds”
Because cold formed steel buildings require more on site assembly, they typically involve more field labor and coordination during erection. This makes them a strong fit for projects where additional field work is manageable within the construction schedule.
Each cold formed steel building supplied by Arco is tailored to the specific needs of the project, ensuring functionality, efficiency, and long-term value.
