Frequently Asked Questions
Structural steel is highly sustainable because it is 100% recyclable and often contains high recycled content. In Los Angeles, its strength-to-weight ratio reduces foundation requirements and transportation emissions. Custom Green Construction Inc. utilizes pre-fabricated components to minimize job site waste, ensuring your project meets California's rigorous CALGreen standards while providing superior seismic resistance.
On average, structural steel erection in Los Angeles ranges from $3,500 to $12,000 per ton, depending on project complexity and seismic requirements. Choosing green options, such as carbon-neutral steel or LEED-certified fabrication, typically adds a 10-15% premium. However, these investments often yield long-term savings through increased structural longevity and potential tax incentives for sustainable building.
