There are frame structures, truss structures, grid structures, suspension structures, etc. The frame structure consists of beams and columns, with clear stress distribution, and is widely used in multi story and high-rise buildings; The truss structure consists of triangular elements composed of members, suitable for large-span spatial structures; The grid structure is a spatial grid structure with good integrity and stability; Suspension structures use the tension of steel cables to bear loads and are commonly used in large-span bridges and sports venues.

• High degree of mechanization: Steel structural components are suitable for manufacturing in factories and then assembling on construction sites. Mechanized manufacturing in factories can ensure high precision and production efficiency of finished components, fast assembly speed on construction sites, and greatly shorten the construction period. It is the most industrialized structural form.
• High durability: Steel structural materials have anti-corrosion capabilities, which can significantly increase the lifespan of the factory building.
• Good sound insulation effect: The sound insulation effect of steel structure factory buildings is significant.
• Good toughness and plasticity, high structural reliability: The internal structure of steel is uniform, almost isotropic homogeneous, and the actual working performance is highly consistent with the calculation theory, with high reliability. At the same time, it has good toughness and plasticity, can effectively withstand impact and dynamic loads, and has excellent seismic performance.

The use of steel structure factories is very extensive, mainly including industrial factories, logistics and warehousing, and large-span structures, livestock farming and greenhouse cultivation, etc.

• Industrial plants: Steel structure plants are suitable for the large space and other building functional requirements required by modern industrial plants due to their structural safety, light weight, and high strength. Prefabricated construction has a short construction period, low cost, easy maintenance, and significant comprehensive economic benefits.
• Logistics and warehousing: Steel structure factory buildings are equipped with steel structure platforms, shelf platforms, and attic shelves, which are used in conjunction with forklifts and hydraulic lifts to access goods and fully utilize warehouse space.
• Bridge engineering: Steel structure bridges have the advantages of light weight, strong crossing capacity, and fast construction speed, and are widely used in various bridge constructions, especially large-span bridges.
• Sports venues: Sports venues usually require large-span space, and steel structures can easily meet this requirement. At the same time, their versatile shapes can create unique architectural appearances, such as well-known sports venues like the Bird's Nest.
• Greenhouse cultivation: Light steel structure greenhouses have the advantages of high strength, light weight, good seismic performance, and fast construction speed, making them suitable for planting vegetables, flowers, and Chinese herbal medicines.
