"The first steel-framed building in history" - where do you get that? You seem to think there's something unique about that. It's not. Somewhere I've got a picture of a burned out barn with steel beams drooped over a wooden beam. The wooden beam retained some measure of its strength, holding itself and the steel beams up. The steel beams drooped like spaghetti under their own weight when they got hot.
