What's the difference between steel structure and concrete structure?

Compared with reinforced concrete structure, steel structure engineering building has obvious advantages such as energy saving, environmental protection, high strength, good seismic performance, fast construction speed, suitable for industrial production and sustainable development, and reinforced concrete structure has good fire resistance and thermal insulation effect.

Brief introduction of steel structure:

Steel structure is a spatial structure with steel as the main material, and it is one of the main structural types of modern architecture. The steel structure is mainly composed of steel beams, steel columns and steel trusses made of section steel and steel plates, and the components or parts are usually connected by welding, bolts or rivets. Because of its light weight and quick and simple construction, it is widely used in large factories, gymnasiums, farmers' markets, warehouses, etc., but its fire resistance is poor.

Second, the introduction of concrete structure:

Concrete structure is a building structure with concrete as the main component. Including plain concrete structure, reinforced concrete structure and prestressed concrete structure. The advantages of concrete structure are shown in the following aspects: good integrity, which can be poured as a whole; Can be cast into structures of various shapes and sizes; Good durability and fire resistance; The engineering cost and maintenance cost are low.
