Since steel is highly resistant to water, mold, mildew, termites and other wood-destroying insects, a steel church building will last longer and require less maintenance. Termites account for a high percentage of property damage each year. In recent years, a new breed of termite, the Formosan termite, has been detected throughout the country. These termites destroy wood faster and grow larger colonies than any other known termite species. Pressure treated lumber is not immune to their attack and insurance will not cover the repairs they cause. These termites are unable to cause any damage to the structure of a General Steel church building. |
