Steel is more expensive then concrete by far. steel houses are great if your building a smaller house, which you are doing, but pre cast and ICF (insulated concrete form) is very cheap and modular. 

If you're just building some sort of shed, aluminum works too

Many people often think that building your own custom home is cheaper than having a construstion do it for you. While you do have to pay for labor, a large company can get all the materials for much cheaper, and while they turn a profit, you will save money overall.

Of course yes Steel Houses are really better than Concrete Houses in many factors...

They are cheaper than concrete houses, they are weather resistant and more durable.

Building a steel house is more expensive than building a concrete one, but definitely it's more sturdy can last for a very long time. It's ideal if you're just constructing a fairly small adode or lightweight, airy building.

Business is not just doing deals; business is having great products, doing great engineering, and providing tremendous service to customers. 


Well steel structure is much cheaper than concrete; since steel structure needs or requires lighter foundation and less material than concrete does thus it is much cheaper.
