steel-type construction
Explanation:
As I worked in the steel industry for many yrs, Steel Typ and Steel Construction are common terms, so I found this on the net:

The above wall panel may be used in many different modes for easy inter-relationship with floor and roof panels and also with hot rolled ***steel-type construction for higher buildings***; and also for box-shaped unitized room construction such as for kitchens and bathrooms and in general to provide for flexibility in high-rise construction using light gauge steel components.

steel modular construction


Explanation:

Or perhaps more commonly, modular steel construction
