Whether it's reduced construction times and labour costs, or structural integrity and durability, wood simply can't compare to a pre-engineered steel building. Here is a head-to-head comparison of the two methods.

In the last year, MSC has experienced a resurgence of local work, with a slate of contracts across the valley, ranging from Penticton to Vernon.

When you drive toward Nelson from the west along Highway 3A, you might notice a series of commercial steel buildings on your right, about five minutes out of town. These matching dark copper structures are the handiwork of Metal Structure Concepts (MSC), and they’ve all been completed for a single client.

Located about an hour outside of the city centre, Preston Ranch is a 1,500-acre plot of land used to raise buffalo.

To help train the next wave of our provincial workforce, Okanagan College in Penticton recently had Metal Structure Concepts (MSC) erect a pre-engineered building to expand the school's welding program.

While prefab metal buildings are renowned for their quick and simple installation, it takes considerable experience and know-how to get it done right.

You can't beat steel buildings when it comes to uses, applications and low production costs. Why Steel is an Important Building Material.

You may have thought you were getting a good deal when you bought that older commercial building. Now that you have to pour money into it for repairs and upgrades, the acquisition might seem less favourable.

When compared to structural steel and other construction methods, a pre-engineered building will invariably be faster for projects of similar size.

Specializing in pre-engineered steel buildings, MSC wants the world to know we're serious about transparency and integrity.
