Structural strategy
Steel frame/ composite deck - Main characteristics of this specific structural system are its strength, flexibility and resistance. It is also super-quick to build on site with its low weight and, at the same time, it can resist far better to climate challenges. This construction alternative is suitable for my building design as it is light, effective and reliable
