Default Welded steel ring?

I would like to build a 30 foot Yurt to be a semi / permanent structure to augment a cramped RV. My question is about the

center ring

. Is there any reason I should not fabricate this out of steel? I was thinking of using a length of channel iron as a bracket for each rafter, possibly securing the rafter to the ring with a bolt or two. I'm not terribly concerned about authenticity or weight (I plan on supporting the ring with an H). What elsw should I keep in mind?
