Instead of building everything from scratch on-site (like in conventional construction), a PEB is pre-designed using advanced engineering techniques and manufactured in controlled conditions. This ensures better quality, precision, and less material waste.
Key components of a PEB
- Primary framing: Main structural elements like columns and rafters made of steel (often tapered sections for strength and economy).
- Secondary members: Purlins, girts, and eave struts that support the walls and roof sheets.
- Roof & wall panels: Usually made from coated steel sheets, sometimes insulated for temperature control.
- Bracing system: Provides stability against wind, seismic loads, and other forces.
- Accessories: Doors, windows, skylights, ventilators, gutters, and downpipes.
