[QUOTE="71buickfreak, post: 2230661, member: 8373"] Steel is definitely more expensive. The cost of steel has skyrocketed, while wood remains relatively even. A 30x40 will cost you 12-13k, but the same in steel will cost upwards of 20. The concrete has to be poured first, you can't do a floating slab like you can with a wood structure. The metal building will give you some more overhead clearance though. The concrete for a metal building has to have a footer, you are looking at 5k just for concrete. A floating slab can be done for 1500. [/QUOTE]
