Aug, 2024

If you are out there in the market or online looking to purchase a large metal building, you may notice that the prices vary with manufacturers and dealers. But how do you find out the right cost of a 100’ by 100’ steel building? The price depends on several factors, such as the cost of materials, size, design, specifications, and additional custom features that you want. So, let’s get into the nitty-gritty of it.

Breaking Down The Price Of 100 X 100 Metal Buildings: A Comprehensive Guide

# Factors That Impact The Cost Of Metal Buildings

A 10,000-square-foot metal structure is a large building that needs more raw materials for construction. So, the price is going to be high. A wooden building this size is usually unimaginable and will come with an even higher price tag. The following are two types of cost associated:

Hard Cost

[physical expenses]

Soft Cost

[indirect expenses]

Raw Material

Certification

Finishing Products

Construction & Labor Charges

Permit

Legal Fees

Financing

Insurance

So, here are some of the factors on which a metal structure’s cost depends:

  • Global Supply & Demand Of Steel: Market fluctuation due to international demand for steel can vary.
  • Steel Gauge For Frame & Panels: A 100 x 100 steel building usually uses a 12-gauge steel frame. For panels, you can prefer 24-gauge steel (which costs ~30% more than 26) or 26-gauge steel (the industry standard).
  • Certification Against Wind & Snow: The price of certified steel buildings against high-speed winds (up to 180 miles per hour) and heavy snow loads (up to 80 pounds per sq. ft.) can increase.
  • Location Of Installation: Your location will determine local labor charges, overall construction costs, utility costs, and necessary customization that you will need.
  • Height Of The Metal Structure: The taller the structure, the more weight it will bear on the foundation and the more support it will need, which will add to the overall cost.
  • Foundation Costs: Different regions may offer cost savings based on the local ground, the quality of soil on your lot, and the site terrain.
  • Design Complexity: Customization will increase the cost of a 100’ by 100’ steel building. So, opt only for the necessary ones.

# Average Price Range For A 100 x 100 Steel Buildings

Though the price can vary greatly with the type & quality of metal used, you can expect to pay between $180,000 to $250,000 for a 100 x 100 steel building. A good estimate would be $18 to $25 per square foot.

Note that this is just the average price. Your metal building can cost low or even higher depending on the design, height, and accessories you choose to install.

# Additional Cost To Consider When Buying A Metal Building

The total cost of a 100’ by 100’ steel building also depends on the level of customization and design complexity of the building. Let’s see what custom features you can add to your dream building:

Add-Ons Use
Insulation To reduce condensation & control temperature
Ventilation System For airflow & natural light
Windows & Doors
Additional Lean-Tos For extra outdoor shaded area
Color Choice 15+ color options to choose from
Floor Finishing E.g., polished concrete, wood, epoxy, vinyl, tile
External Siding Industrial Look – 3D/curved/perforated metal panels

Traditional Look – faux wood/stone/brick veneer

Interior Finishing Specific to building use-case

# Benefits Of Investing In A 100 x 100 Metal Building

There are numerous reasons why you should choose metal as a raw material for your sports club, manufacturing plant, large-scale workshop, recreational facility, warehouse, or storage. Some of them are listed below:

  • Durability
  • Higher Tensile Strength
  • Rust Resistant
  • Lightweight & Dense
  • Non Combustible
  • Sustainable
  • Non Porous
  • Pest Resistant
  • Increase Usable Space

# Tips To Save Money On Your Metal Building Purchase

  • Clear Span vs. Pole Span: A clear span design offers the freedom to design an obstruction-free interior space but increases the cost. If you don’t mind steel columns, opt for pole span. It will cost less.
  • Length Instead Of Width: Opt for more length than width if your metal building isn’t square. For instance, a 100’ wide x 120’ long will cost less than a 120’ wide x 100’ long, despite having the same area. That’s because a wider building needs more support columns.
  • Lower The Height: This is a no-brainer! A taller structure will cost more. However, if you have less space, opting for more height will give you the advantage of installing a mezzanine or creating loft space.
  • Get Prefab Metal Building: A prefab metal building is designed, cut, and drilled in the factory. It is ready to install. You can customize it. It reduces labor and construction costs.
  • Choose Steel Building For Sale: For those with budget constraints, metal buildings on sale are a great option. Metal dealers often offer discounts and offers on their websites or social media handles.
  • Consider Future Expansion: If you will need a larger space in the near future, opt for a larger commercial metal building now. It will reduce construction costs in the future. You can opt for removable end walls. With proper planning, expansion is easy for a metal structure.
