Steel and Cladding price's?

john1697

Ok, As the title says what would be an average price to pay for a steel beam say 100 x 200mm any length and what length can these beams be got? Will my local steel supplier cut them to the length I want them and charge me per foot or how does it work?

On a second note what kind of rates would apply for cladding, I was at a local supplier and was quoted €3.35 incl vat per foot of box profile cladding which is 1 meter wide which can be got in various lenghts and I think he said around €4.00 for non drip is this a good price?

Is non drip any good or would i be better with the spray on insulation down the road?

I would expect to pay €22 a meter for a beam 100 x 200mm (IPE200).
That price should include cutting to length depending on how many cuts you are after.

The lengths it normally comes in are 12.2 meters or 14 meters.

On the sheets depending on the quantity you are looking its not too bad price if you are getting .7mm sheets and not .5mm. Non drip seems a good price if it is .7mm thick sheets.

Rang around today and the best price I got for the steel was €260 incl. vat for a 40ft beam 100 x 200mm!

Sounds about right with my estimate :

40foot is 12.2 meters x €22/meter = €268
