Our steel constructions
Imagine a building rising like a promise, a promise of security, stability and protection. Steel is the guardian of this promise, its implacable strength defying time and adversity. When the wind howls and the earth shakes, steel stands firm, like a beacon of hope in the darkness of the storm.
But it is not just its strength that makes it extraordinary; it is also its grace, its ability to bend to the will of the architect, to dance with the sunlight and embrace the sky with elegance. Steel is not just a material, it is a muse for the artists who shape our world.
And as we lift our eyes to our steel buildings, we also see a footprint of sustainability. Steel is recyclable, reborn from itself in an endless cycle. Every beam, every pillar, every strand of steel tells a story of rebirth and renewal, making our way towards a greener, brighter future.
So when we choose steel, we don't just choose a material; we choose a travelling companion for our highest dreams. We choose the strength, beauty and unwavering hope that only steel can offer. We choose to build not only buildings, but also legends that stand the test of time. We choose steel, and with it, we choose to leave an indelible mark on the fabric of history.
Steel buildings are an excellent solution against earthquakes. Enzo Reschini designs and builds safe and eco-sustainable steelwork constructions, unique tailor-made solutions. Our team of professionals is available to develop a customised project for your steel house, evaluating the most appropriate technical solutions and studying the architectural composition that best suits your style.
The strength of steel, guardian of our vision of a solid and bright future.
Residential construction
Why build in steel
Steel perfectly meets the most stringent construction requirements for construction in seismic zones. Steel structures guarantee the possibility of absorbing seismic energy, utilising the high plastic reserves typical of the material, through the use of construction details that are far less onerous than those that would be necessary in a reinforced concrete structure.
In addition, steel constructions are characterised by significantly lower structural weights than building solutions with traditional materials, thus reducing the magnitude of the earthquake's effects on the structure while ensuring a more effective ability to dissipate seismic action.
Most traditional civil dwellings have a reinforced concrete structure designed to survive an earthquake and guarantee the safety of the inhabitants while remaining damaged. In fact, with traditional construction, the earthquake is overcome at the price of major structural damage, the restoration of which at the end of the earthquake can be costly or completely uneconomical, to the point of making reconstruction necessary in any case.
On the contrary, steel houses, thanks to their lightness, can be designed with a different approach and are able to retain their full functionality even after the most severe earthquakes, thus guaranteeing not only that the emergency can be overcome without damage, but also that the house has a higher economic value than traditional structures.
Thanks to the capabilities of steel, the structure survives the earthquake and ensures the safety of the inhabitants, while remaining undamaged. After the earthquake, the structure remains structurally intact and still able to fulfil all its functions with the same degree of safety as it had before the earthquake.

Advantages
Steel is Safety and Savings
Prefabrication, architectural integration, fast and quick fixing and assembly methods lead to savings. In spite of complex building forms, the time period to complete a building is always short and consequently construction costs are low.
Steel is a high quality material and allows short delivery times, reducing investment costs and enabling a quicker return on investment. The other relationship between the mechanical strength and specific weight of steel, ensures considerable static performance, with reduced space requirements and low weight to optimise transport and foundation costs.
The footprint of the columns is significantly smaller than any other solution and allows a gain in space, which has a positive effect on the price. The metal structures allow them to be reused or repurposed and in the event of demolition allow the resale of recovered materials.
Steel is flexible
There are no difficulties in transforming the steelwork and adapting it to new requirements and a different use. If payload utilisation is required, structural elements can be individually reinforced or modular structures can be added. New connections can be easily introduced by welding or bolting, allowing for a different use. Other building components, such as façade walls, partitions, air conditioning systems, specific and miscellaneous installations, can easily be attached to the steel structure.
Spans without columns and natural lighting or slim columns and clean lines are some of the many choices to emphasise the functional nature of the project, to realise one's boldest ideas and to achieve the most prestigious results by making the steel structure itself an architectural element. Precise and documented production guarantees the quality of the product, ensuring a long life with normal maintenance. Steel allows for immediate visual inspection, excellent natural earthquake resistance, a guarantee of protection in the event of fire, a long service life with predictable and quantifiable normal maintenance, little disturbance to the environment and a short service life. Steel can meet the needs of designers, incorporating curved and linear elements in creative ways. It can also allow the use of moving parts, different materials and colours. Every architectural expression has a steel solution, its versatility and beauty attested to by the many magnificent national and global realisations, considering that steel can be combined with any other complementary or accessory material. Steel structures are the safest and seismically the best performing. The joints, which are often visible, allow for easy inspection even after several years. The materials and their quality are tested beforehand and do not depend on mixing or weathering.
Steel is the most recycled material in the world
The steel is 100% and infinitely recyclable without any loss of quality. Once recovered, it is still 100% recyclable. The recycling rate is the percentage of materials that are discarded, recovered and reused. This rate is very high for steel, but varies from product to product. In construction, for example, it reaches particularly high levels: 98% for beams, 65-70% for reinforcing bars. Today, recycled steel represents 40% of the world's iron resource for the steel industry. For every tonne of steel produced, the steel industry produces a benefit for future generations, who will not have to produce any.
High-efficiency steel solutions When assessing the sustainability of a building, the life cycle approach must be used, taking into consideration all phases of the building's life, including the production of materials, transport to the construction site, the construction operation itself, use of the building, demolition or dismantling and end of life.
All steel products, from simple profiles to the most complex facades, are produced off-site and delivered ready to be assembled. The use of prefabricated products provides a number of advantages that help reduce risks during the construction phase:

The dry system
Dry-built houses are a viable and affordable alternative to traditional houses. In recent years, even in Italy the general public is approaching this type of construction. The features that arouse the greatest interest are certainly the reduced construction time, excellent energy performance, earthquake-proof qualities and a competitive price compared to traditional houses. The type of dry-stone houses on the market is very varied, the offer includes prefabricated houses in steel, wood, concrete, each with its own characteristics and peculiarities.
In our country, generally, when we talk about prefabricated houses we think of wooden houses, both because they have been on the national market for some time and because of the widespread conviction that they better meet energy efficiency and environmental sustainability requirements.
However, today, although still little known and widespread, dry-built steel houses are establishing themselves on the market as a new trend in modern construction as an excellent alternative to timber and traditional solutions.
Here, then, are the characteristics of dry-built steel houses and the advantages that such a choice can bring to those who are deciding to build a house:
