Abstract

The feasibility and advantage of steel structure applied to low-rise residences in the south of Jiangsu were analyzed firstly. In order to compare the comprehensive economic benefits between the steel structure residence and the traditional reinforced concrete residence, two-story houses with steel structure and reinforced concrete structure system were designed respectively on the basis of the certain foundation and load conditions in southern area of Jiangsu. The calculation and comparison of specific economic indicators show that the labor cost of low-rise steel structure residence is significantly lower than that of concrete residence while the material costs of low-rise steel residence are more. Generally, the total cost of steel structure is slightly more expensive than that of concrete structure. However, for the long-term comprehensive economic benefits, the application of steel structure in low-rise residences is not more disadvantageous compared with concrete structure. The research work has some reference value for popularization low-rise steel structural residences in the south of Jiangsu.
