As part of our series that explores the various materials used in building design and construction, this brochure focuses on steel.
Since the first use of steel in the turn of the 19th century, the material has become one of the key elements used in the construction industry. As the engineering symbol for the first and second ages of the industrial revolution, structural steel is still an essential material used in the built environment today.
The publication explores the use of steel in the past, using AKT II’s project portfolio as prime examples, whilst also detailing how steel can be developed for use in the future.
