The use of the metallic structure as a constructive technology arose in the mid-eighteenth century, and in Brazil, its use began in the second half of the nineteenth century with cast iron, and has expanded to the present day with the use of steel. The use of an industrialized technology leads to gains in terms of time and quality, and has become an alternative to be considered for social housing projects. In this way, this work investigates the use of the steel structure in this type of building and presents some experiences that have occurred in the country, mainly in the metropolitan regions. The metallic structure can bring some advantages to this sector, such as the agility in building numerous housing units in the short term, and disadvantages, such as the cost issue. In order to increase the knowledge on the subject, a comparative case study of steel structure works was carried out, aiming to understand the understanding as well as its behavior and to present a critical analysis of this constructive system for specific use in housing projects. The results show that the knowledge of the physical properties and particularities of the steel is fundamental for the development of good projects, which can be realized through joint work between engineers and architect, expanding the range of steel use, designing countless constructive scenarios.
