<p>Allied Steel Buildings is a national leader in prefabricated <a href="http://www.alliedbuildings.com/">Steel Buildings</a>, providing innovative and expertly-engineered buildings to a wide variety of clients. Our company was founded on the principles of delivering high-quality services while at the same time promoting social and environmental sustainability. To that end, we’re proud to offer cutting edge <a href="http://www.alliedbuildings.com/building-green/">Green Building</a> solutions that will help benefit both the environment and your bottom line.</p>
<p>According to the US Department of Energy (DOE), buildings account for 40 percent of all energy consumed in the US, 71 percent of electricity, 38 percent of carbon dioxide emissions, and 36 percent of all greenhouse gas emissions. In short, buildings of every size and industry are contributing to the overconsumption of energy and the subsequent environmental damage that’s caused. With our affordable and timely buildings, you can help fight this serious problem while enjoying the fruits of a functional and cost-saving structure.</p>
<p>Indeed, while helping the environment is a reward in its own right, it’s also good for business. The typical building’s yearly energy costs represent 30 percent of their owner’s annual budget. The green solutions provided by Allied Steel directly address these issues. The business advantages of being green include a 9 percent reduction in operating costs, a 7.5 percent increase in building value, a 3.5 percent increase in occupancy ration, and much more.</p>
<p>Our designs incorporate features like prismatic skylights, which promote a substantial amount of natural lighting, thus removing the need for artificial need. Cool colored metal roofs – made from 100% recyclable products – help reflect heat and save on air conditioning. Similarly, our LEED-approved insulated panels are made with zero Ozone Depleting Potential (ODP), helping you save money and the environment. We can even install long-lasting solar panels that provide as much as 70-80 percent of your hot water needs.</p>
<p>Regardless of your steel building needs, Allied Steel Buildings wants to promote environmental sustainability while helping you go green from concept to completion. To learn more how you can do good while saving money, call us at 1-877-997-8335.</p>

Whatever the form or function, our professional and cutting-edge company can design, engineer, and build the most reliable structures &#8230; <a href="http://www.alliedbuildings.com/rising-wood-costs-causes-builders-to-choose-allied-steel-buildings/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Builders have always turned to <a href="http://www.alliedbuildings.com/customer-service/">Allied Steel Buildings</a> when searching for the finest and most innovative <a href="http://www.alliedbuildings.com/">Steel Buildings</a> on the market. Whatever the form or function, our professional and cutting-edge company can design, engineer, and build the most reliable structures on the market.</p>
<p>Now, clients have another important reason to rely on our steel buildings: the increasing cost of wood construction materials.</p>
<p>An industry study has found that a growing number of builders are seeking out steel construction in order to save time and money. A recent report by Random Lengths has concluded that wood building materials have gone up 45 percent over the past year, a significant increase in so little time. Meanwhile steel prices have actually fallen in the past year, making this durable building material even more affordable.</p>
<p>Even without the reduction in price, metal construction methods have long been the most cost effective. They produce less waste, are of better quality and durability, and have reduced labor costs compared to wood construction. That’s why Allied Steel Buildings has always relied on this method in order to deliver safe and efficient buildings to its clients.</p>
<p>We’re also passing on more new savings to our customers, with a pre-production sale on buildings of any size and style. Our extensive lineup of expertly-designed structures includes garages, workshops, warehouses, truck shops, manufacturing facilities, airplane hangars, recycling facilities, riding/ roping arenas, farm buildings, logistic hubs, mining and oilfield buildings, and much more.</p>
<p>Furthermore, this limited-time promotion includes other perks, such as Engineered Permit Drawings stamped for your province or municipality, Allied Buildings’ WeatherLock roof panels, SunGuard wall panels and carbon steel fasteners. Simply choose the right size and color for you and we’ll accommodate.</p>
<p>With wood costs rising and steel buildings leading the way in innovation and quality, now is the time to get your cutting-edge Allied Steel Building. To learn more, call us toll free at 1 (877) 997-8335.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At Allied Steel Buildings, we specialize in the design, engineering, and fabrication of a wide variety of steel buildings. Our Allied buildings are ideal for <a href="http://www.alliedbuildings.com/equestrian-buildings/">equestrian steel buildings</a>; such as Clear Span arenas up to 300 ft. wide that provide ample space for riding, roping, and dressage, as well as horse stables and barns.</p>
<p>Allied equestrian buildings reflect a high-standard of innovation, construction, and efficiency. Each structure is tailor-made to suit the needs of the individual and we pride ourselves on providing a personal design experience. At Allied, we take into account important factors – such as the building site, owner preferences, and the horses needs to customize and design-engineer each structure to exceed expectations. Allied arenas provide a safe place to practice and perform, a place that provides comfort for the long hours of training. An Allied arena is a perfect sanctuary to get away, a great venue for clinics from top professionals or an ideal location for larger events and competitions.</p>
<p>Allied equestrian buildings feature high ceilings, which are vital for facilitating proper ventilation. Light transmitting panels and ridge vents are also a great addition to our arenas as they allow for fresh air and natural light that enhances the atmosphere and adds to the riding experience.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Design and workmanship save steel structure from flooding as neighboring buildings see extensive damage.</em></p>
<p>When the Addison Creek water came rushing over its banks in April due to record-breaking rain in the Chicago area, many residents and businesses scrambled. So too did the owners of a nightclub and cabaret in Stone Park that had just completed construction and opened earlier in the year. They began calling the man who designed the building, Jim Ohle, an architect with decades of experience.</p>
<p>“I was getting hour-by-hour calls about what to do about different problems,” he said. “But the building held. The Allied steel building held, and that’s incredible given the damage to the other buildings in the area.”</p>
<p>When designing the 18,000-square-foot cavernous club filled with start-of-the-art technology and electronics, Ohle called Allied Steel Buildings even though he had never worked on a steel building before. He chose Allied Steel Buildings because of its reputation for quality and <a href="http://www.alliedbuildings.com/customer-service/">customer service</a>. And he wasn&#8217;t disappointed.</p>
<p>Ohle praised the company for working with him on <a href="http://www.alliedbuildings.com/design-engineering-services/">design-engineering</a> the building, taking into consideration the floodplain. The cabaret is on the banks of a river that’s prone to flooding.</p>
<p>The company provided Ohle with a not just <a href="http://www.alliedbuildings.com/building-details/">weather-tight</a> roofing and wall systems, but also incorporated a sealed enclosure at the base to keep water out, said Darren Sperling, director of major accounts at Allied Steel Buildings. The company used excellent quality materials for the job, he said.</p>
<p>“But it also has to be installed correctly,” Sperling said.</p>
<p>As three-and-half feet of water flooded other buildings, the club remained dry.</p>
<p>“I can’t help but to say to myself that Allied had a lot with that,” Ohle said.</p>
<p>Wind-driven rain pelted the building’s roof and wall systems. The rising and rushing water put additional pressure on the structure. The architect said that the care that Allied Steel Buildings took with the connection between the steel and the concrete helped keep the flood waters out.</p>
<p>It was during the design stage that Ohle instructed the company to take into account how the steel structure would respond to flooding. He praised the company’s responsiveness and its <a href="http://www.alliedbuildings.com/customer-service/">customer service</a>.</p>
<p>“They listened to me, not just one of them — but all of them,” Ohle said about his contacts with Allied Steel Buildings. “Whoever I spoke with knew about the project, which is unusual in many organizations. They seem to have a set of core <a href="http://www.alliedbuildings.com/about-us/vision-values/">values</a> to take every project seriously. They took mine seriously, and they didn&#8217;t even know me.”</p>
<p>Ohle has designed buildings throughout the country. Each area presents a set of design challenges, whether it’s earthquakes on the West Coast or hurricanes in Florida. So he must take that into account. Still, he didn&#8217;t expect to have such serious flooding in Stone Park so soon after the project was done. That type of flooding may happen again in another 40 years, he said.</p>
<p>As the rain fell and the Des Plaines waters crested over its banks, Ohle’s main job was talking to the clubs owners and contractors, keeping them calm. The building was under “unbelievable” pressure from water on all sides, he said. But it held.</p>
<p>“These guys did a good job,” Ohle said. And, that has him thinking: “I just about want to become a metal building architect,” he said.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Steel is more than just the metal that only Superman was strong enough to bend.</h2>
<p>Steel is functional and can be utilized in a way that most people probably haven’t considered. We spend a lot of time and money on our dwellings, but unfortunately we have gotten stuck in a rut. Traditional building materials aren&#8217;t your only choice. When it comes to storage buildings, churches, restaurants, retail stores, grocery stores, gyms, homes, schools, offices, warehouses, and aircraft hangars—any kind of buildings, really— there are more choices available to you. Don’t overlook steel just because you’re unfamiliar with it.</p>
<p>Today’s steel buildings aren&#8217;t just boring gray boxes that are cold, dark, and dreary. In fact, technological advances have made steel so attractive that it is really difficult to just pinpoint one advantage that would solidify a decision to go with steel. But when you look at all of the advantages of steel put together it easy to see that that the choice for steel is really undeniable. Following is a list of reasons to choose steel:</p>
<ul>
<li>Steel is affordable: Since our buildings are pre-fabricated and pre-engineered offsite you can be assured that every single piece will fit together perfectly. You will receive exactly what you need to assemble your structure shipped directly to the site. You won’t even have to hire anyone to assemble it for you: no welding required!</li>
<li>Steel is environmentally friendly: Steel is green. Our buildings are made of at at least 70% of recycled metals. In the future, your building will also be recyclable.</li>
<li>Steel is durable: Steel is the building material choice for those in heavy-industry for a reason—you can depend on it to last a long time.</li>
<li>Steel can blend in: Modern facades are available in any exterior that you desire. Faux facades make it even more affordable.</li>
<li>Steel is low maintenance: You won’t have to spend a lot of time repairing the roof of your steel building. They last for nearly 40 years. Compare that to your traditional roof that must be replaced every 10-15 years at the very least, and requires maintenance yearly.</li>
<li>Steel is efficient: Advances in insulation systems allow steel buildings to feel just as comfortable as a traditional building while ensuring that you don’t lost energy—and money.</li>
</ul>
