What is the use of stainless steel in construction?

Stainless steel has always been an excellent material showing the modern image of advancing with the times in the history of construction application for about 90 years so far, and it has had a huge impact on international architectural design. It gives the building long-term durability and sustainability, and enhances safety and reliability. Practice has proved that as long as the ss material is selected and maintained correctly, it will have the same life span as the building structure, or even several hundred years. Therefore, for any design that requires long life, stainless steel is an attractive, low-cost, high-yield, and environmentally friendly material.
