  • Abstract:
  • Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEB) are modern steel structures widely used in industrial and commercial construction due to their speed, economy, and structural efficiency. This project presents a detailed study of PEB structures and evaluates their performance and applications in comparison with conventional RCC and conventional steel buildings. The study includes investigation of structural components such as primary members (columns and rafters), secondary members (purlins, girts, bracing), and cladding systems. The design concept of tapered built-up sections, where material is provided according to bending moment requirements, was analyzed to understand structural optimization. Load considerations including dead load, live load, wind load, and seismic load were examined along with the load transfer mechanism of the structure. The fabrication and erection processes of PEB structures were studied, highlighting the advantages of factory manufacturing and bolted site assembly. Comparative analysis showed significant reduction in construction time, foundation size, and labor requirement. Cost evaluation revealed that PEB buildings are approximately 15–30% more economical than conventional construction methods. Performance analysis indicated that PEB structures possess high strength-to-weight ratio, better seismic resistance, and improved durability with minimal maintenance. Due to large column-free spans and flexibility, PEB systems are suitable for warehouses, factories, workshops, hangars, commercial complexes, and agricultural buildings. Environmental benefits such as recyclability of steel, reduced construction waste, and lower carbon emission were also observed. The study concludes that Pre-Engineered Building technology provides a fast, economical, and sustainable solution for modern infrastructure development and represents an effective alternative to traditional construction techniques.
