Pre-engineered structures

Pre-engineered structures

Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEB) is an area in the field of infrastructural development which has lately gained momentum in India with a substantial increase in demand for ready-to-install buildings

PEB is a cost effective construction solution that provides not only design flexibility but condenses the construction time to comfortably meet the deadlines. Typically a PEB is a metal building that consists of components like main framing or vertical columns, sheeting and insulation panels, purlins (secondary members for supporting the roof panels and wall shell), brick and cement board walls and flooring. It is a relatively flexible structure versus conventional steel framed building. The concept is intended to provide a complete building system which is optimum in weight, energy efficient, air tight, cost effective and above all, designed to fit user requirement . These pre-engineered steel buildings can be fitted with different readymade accessories including interior partitions, canopies, floors, fascias, etc. The building is made water-tight by use of special beads, filler strips and trims. This is a multipurpose building system and can be conclude internally to fulfill any requirement and customized externally to achieve attractive and distinctive architectural mode. The main component steel is favorite substance for construction because of its strength and flexibility. Once it is extensively used in India, the concept has the potential of expediting the biggest focus in India in the current times - infrastructural development. Thus, the critical shortage of educational , housing, health and industrial buildings can be met in an efficient and cost effective manner. The PEB system can have a lot of scope in India. Currently the industry is worth Rs. 2,000 crores, growing at 10% per annum.

Everest Industries Limited


Today, building design and the methods and materials of construction need to be more efficient, highly durable and quick to execute. Therefore , it is essential to do away with the hassles of hiring a contractor, ensuring a steady supply of raw material, managing logistical and on-site issues like weather conditions and manpower.
On the other hand, in the wake of global warming , governments and environmental activists are forcing industries to go green. It necessarily dictates that building construction goes in the same direction . Hence, green, clean, fast, durable, flexible building solutions are the need of the hour.
Everest Industries Limited, established in the year 1934, a complete building solutions company, has forayed into Pre-Engineered Steel Buildings (PEB). A wonder of modern technology, PEB have revolutionized the very concept of industrial, commercial and residential buildings.
Everest Pre-Engineered Steel Buildings are the fastest systems of industrial construction today. These buildings are 100% custom-built as per the exact specifications using computer-aided design, and with the optimum use of steel.
Everest can construct your building in only 33% of the time that it takes to construct a conventional building. This means 200% faster construction! To provide end-to-end PEB solutions, Everest has set-up an ultra-modern manufacturing unit in Bhagwanpur, built with an investment of Rs 90 crore. This plant can manufacture up to 60,000 MT of steel buildings per annum. The capacity can be further expanded to 100,000 MT. The buildings that Everest make, range from a simple warehouse to a huge industrial plant. Today, the company's product portfolio comprises steel buildings, ceilings, walls, floors, cladding, doors and roofing solutions. The company has manufacturing facilities in Kymore (Madhya Pradesh), Kolkata (West Bengal), Coimbatore (Tamil Nadu), Nashik (Maharashtra) and Bhagwanpur (Uttaranchal ). The company has a state-of-the-art R&D centre in Nashik, which constantly works on product up-gradation and development of new products.

Intellotech clamps


Clamps are the most important construction accessory and perhaps the most neglected one. Earlier, the component was not given the due importance in construction activity resulting in lose fastening, untidy look and unreliable clamping. Now realizing their past mistakes contractors, architects, builders, etc., prefer to use standardized clamps. The component imparts stability, the basic requirement of any good construction. With the introduction of new generation Intellotech clamps, things have become quite easy. They are precise, accurate in size, shape and thickness. This mean that be it vertical or horizontal supports, the person installing a pipe or cable system can assure himself that the support would be uniform, firm and that the load would be evenly distributed through out the length of the system, which will avoid many future problems .
