1. Design of Steel-Framed Schools

Steel-framed school is a new school structure type appropriate for the changing educational environment. Unlike the engineering methods using bricks or concrete, this method has many merits, such as easy interior alteration and additions, superior durability and earthquake resistance as well as short construction period. Able to satisfy the call for environmentally conscious construction method, the US, Japan, Germany and other advanced nations have long applied this engineering method of the future to building school facilities.
