The Top 6 Best Metal
Buildings
Metal is one of the most necessary
materials for humans, which is used
in almost all areas of life in its various
forms. So, for example, stainless
steel melted for the first time on August 13, 1913,
in Sheffield is used both for the manufacture
of parts of complex mechanisms and for
decorating facades and interiors of buildings.
We have selected five iconic buildings built on
a metal frame.
The Eiffel Tower
The construction of Gustave Eiffel was made
in 1889 in honor of the centenary of the French
Revolution. Interestingly, the metal buildings
first impressions of the local community from
the unusual tower were extremely negative.
According to the initial project, the Eiffel Tower
was supposed to stand for 20 years, after
which they planned to dismantle it. However,
the popularity of the building exceeded all
expectations: crowds of tourists admired the
creation of an engineering genius and a hot
rolled coil producer, so this wonderful miracle
of architecture delights Parisians and visitors to
this day. The height of the tower is 324 meters
and its construction took place as fast as
possible thanks to the use of metal structures.
Empire State Building
The 103-story office metal buildings skyscraper
is located in New York City on Manhattan Island.
Its height is 381.3 m. This is one of the tallest
skyscrapers in the world. The architecture
belongs to the Art Deco style. The building
weighs 331 thousand tons. It is erected on a
two-story foundation and supported by a steel
structure weighing 54.4 thousand tons. The
skyscraper frame consists of hundreds of steel
sections several meters long and several tons
weighing.
Sydney Opera House
This metal buildings building has gained
popularity due to the unusual shape of the
roof. Implementing such a project became
possible thanks to the use of metal structures.
Looking at the roof of the Sydney Opera
House, you understand that any project, even
the most sophisticated, can be implemented
in practice, and all thanks to the flexibility of
the metal and its strength characteristics. The
construction of the Sydney Opera House took
14 years and $ 102 million, but the result was
beyond all expectations.
