When looking at environmental impact, steel, particularly Hollow Structural Section (HSS) steel, used for columns, braces, and beams, may have a higher GWP compared to other construction materials.

Another novel structural approach can be found in chassis-based modular building systems, which reduce steel systems to frames comprising wide-flange beams, concrete-filled box columns, or hollow ...
