Yes, Concrete walls can be tied to PEB Systems steel columns with ties for lateral support. In such cases Building Systems will design the structure with low horizontal deflections to prevent cracking of Concrete. Sometimes consultants will detail the Concrete wall to be isolated from the steel structure, which will allow for more optimization of steel building and lower cost. When required Pre-engineered Building Systems can also provide beams to support Concrete walls above openings etc., PEB Systems design will follow the requirements of the architectural drawings on any project.
