Steel buildings are becoming popular because they are durable, long-lasting, and cost-effective. With steel, you never have to worry about water damage causing mold or mildew, and you also do not have to concern yourself with pests like termites.
Even further, steel buildings come prefabricated. This means the installation process is quick and easy, saving you time. The labor is not an intensive, so you will also save money.
If you are considering creating a new metal building kit, pick the dimensions you need first. One of Titan Steel Structure’s most popular dimensions is 100×150, offering 15,000 square feet of unobstructed space.
If you are wondering how much a 100×150 metal building kit costs, first you have to consider the market price of steel. It typically ranges from $25 to $35 per square foot, so the base price of this dimension will range from $375,000 to $525,000. Other factors can increase the price of a metal building kit, like what customizations you choose to add on.
How Can You Use a 100×150 Metal Building?
You can use a 100×150 metal building kit for just about any purpose. Our clients choose this size for residential, commercial, and agricultural uses.
Some of the most common uses for a 100×150 steel building include:
- Steel aircraft hangars
- Equestrian facilities like horse barns or riding arenas
- Agricultural buildings like large equipment storage, living quarters for animals, and housing for staff
- Auto repair shops and car washes
- Manufacturing warehouses
- Cryptocurrency mining facilities
- Houses of worship
- Large retail stores and restaurants
- Residential buildings like a barndominium or an additional dwelling unit (ADU)
You can customize your building design to fit any of the above-mentioned uses. For example, we can create separate bays on the interior for an auto body repair shop or stalls for livestock like horses. You can also choose to keep the interior layout open, allowing more space for the big machinery required for manufacturing warehouses.
What is the Cost of a 100×150 Steel Building?
Some times of year see a higher production of general steel, which would mean a lower overall price. If you decide to build during a time of year when production is low, the price might be slightly higher.
Typically, the market price of steel is between $25 to $35 per square foot. This means the base price of a 100×150 metal building is between $375,000 to $525,000.
While this price might sound high, you will save money in the long run. First, you have to consider construction costs. Most people have to pay a large team of laborers for weeks to months.
When you choose prefabricated steel, you can rest assured that your construction costs will be extremely low. These buildings arrive at the construction site ready to assemble.
Even further, metal buildings require less maintenance down the line. You’ll never have to deal with the common issues of wooden buildings, like mold, mildew, or termites. Additionally, there are paint coatings that you can opt for that prevent your steel building from rusting if you live in an area that sees high precipitation.
Factors that Influence the Price of a 100×150 Steel Building
In addition to the market price of steel, the cost of a 100×150 metal building can fluctuate based on the following factors:
Location
Even though metal buildings are pre-engineered, they are not mass-produced. Each one is created based on your specifications and customizations. As a result, it is extremely easy to ensure that your building passes state and local building codes.
Local codes can influence the cost of a metal building. They might require special customizations to protect the local environment.
Even further, the location of the building can influence the type of foundation your building needs. If you are in a mountainous region, a typical concrete slab might not be sufficient. If you need a specialized foundation, the overall cost might increase.
Customizations
Next, the customizations you choose will influence the overall cost of your 100×150 metal building kit.
Some examples of customizations that our clients opt for include:
- Amount and type of doors and windows
- Whether you want skylights
- Type and amount of insulation
- Specialized exterior finishes like fire-resistant coating or rust-proofing
- Changes to interior layout like adding built-in stalls or bays
