American Buildings, established in 1947 in Columbus, Georgia, is one of the largest manufacturers of custom engineered steel building systems in the world. Originally founded as Steel Builders, Inc. during the post-World War II economic boom, the company has grown significantly over the decades, particularly after its relocation and subsequent renaming in 1964. With over 75 years of experience, American Buildings is renowned for its design flexibility, estimating ease, quality, and value in the commercial and industrial sector.
Operating full-service plants in Illinois, South Carolina, Texas, and Utah, the company utilizes cutting-edge technology and sustainable practices to provide energy-efficient metal building solutions tailored to diverse applications—ranging from industrial warehouses to agricultural buildings and recreational facilities.
As a brand of Fortune 500 company Nucor Corporation, the largest steel producer and recycler in North America, American Buildings enjoys unparalleled financial stability and strength, allowing it to deliver top-quality products and services. The company has cultivated an extensive Builder Network, consisting of nearly a thousand design-build contractors across North America and the Caribbean, to further enhance its reach and customer service.
American Buildings takes pride in producing high-quality structures with American-made steel, ensuring that all projects are designed, detailed, and fabricated domestically. Dedicated to innovation and sustainability, the company continues to lead the industry in custom pre-engineered metal solutions, striving to create buildings that are not only functional but also environmentally responsible.
