    The document discusses factors to consider when choosing the form of construction for a structure. It provides two charts - the first outlines appropriate construction forms for different spans for steel and concrete structures. The second compares the weights required for various spans and construction types for single-story steel buildings, which tend to be very cost-effective. The document also briefly mentions a building system case study.

    3.2 Choice of Form


    The span of the structure is the main consideration. For the two usual forms of
    construction, the first of the following charts advises what forms of construction are
    appropriate for what spans for steel and concrete.

    The second chart gives a comparison of the weights of structure required for various
    spans and types of construction for single-storey steel buildings. These buildings tend
    to be extremely well engineering economically.
