red iron building design
(OP)
Is that something special in structural steel that I am unaware of?
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

RE: red iron building design
If you are simply asking about "red iron" - it just refers to standard steel design - when they used to primer it with "red" paint.

Just google "red iron buildings". It's the red oxide paint that inhibits corrosion that gives it the term.

Did some work on existing BUT old (1920's) New York bridges. The old blue prints were very specific on assuring there was enough "lead" in the paint.
Now we spend a fortune (part of my project) to remove it.

And how good is to have good friends. In Spain, the period to dismantle the industries using asbestos allowed them to reconvert to greener (gypsum plasteboard) pastures. It seems some things are less venomous if you have the proper friends.
