Steel construction expo
China (Guangzhou) International Exhibition for Steel Construction & Metal Building Materials (STEEL BUILD) is one of the world's leading exhibitions in the building steel structure industry. The exhibition is jointly organized by authoritative institutions from the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, including the Guangdong Steel Structure Association, the Hong Kong Association of Metal Building Systems, and the Macau Association of Construction Industry.
The Guangdong Provincial Society of Steel Construction has been established for 30 years. Its members primarily come from enterprises and institutions involved in design, construction, supervision, inspection, scientific research, universities, and more. The association brings together outstanding companies and professionals from various sectors such as building metals, shipbuilding, bridges, curtain walls, cable membrane structures, iron & steel, and materials industries. STEEL BUILD was founded by Guangdong Grandeur International Exhibition Group and has been hosted and organized by them all along since its inception.
STEEL BUILD 2026 will be grandly held from May 8 to 10, 2026, at the Poly World Trade Center Expo in Guangzhou, China.
