STEELFRAMETECH IS REVOLUTIONIZING CONSTRUCTION

• Newer construction methods using Light Gauge Formed Steel (LGFS) are revolutionizing the way buildings are created.
  CFS offers improved quality, speed of construction, design flexibility, and environmental performance compared to traditional methods.

Speed of construction:

• Light Gauge Formed Steel (LGFS) construction is faster than traditional methods, as frames are pre-assembled and require no on-site cutting or welding.
• Weather delays are minimized, as steel frames do not absorb moisture.
• Precise dimensions of LGFS frames ensure quick and accurate installation of pre-made windows, doors, and bathrooms.

Reduced need for highly skilled labor:

• Light Gauge Formed Steel (LGFS) construction reduces the need for highly skilled labor due to its lightweight design, pre-fabricated frames, and simple on-site erection.
• Light Gauge Formed Steel (LGFS) enables construction in challenging locations or areas with limited access to skilled labor, creating more opportunities for developers and builders.

Versatility of design:

• Light Gauge Formed Steel (LGFS) is suitable for various building types, including modular units, multi-story buildings, and architecturally challenging designs.
• It offers larger span lengths, increased space utilization, and the ability to create innovative building shapes and non-conventional roof lines.
• LGFS allows for narrower walls, providing more internal space and addressing urban density demands.

Faster return on investment (ROI):

• Light Gauge Formed Steel (LGFS) construction is cost competitive and can be cheaper overall due to its advantages in speed, accuracy, and reduced labor costs.
• Simplified logistics and assembly, along with potential discounts on builder’s risk insurance, contribute to faster ROI.
• Less waste and reduced long-term maintenance costs further enhance the owner’s returns.

Environmental advantages:

• Light Gauge Formed Steel (LGFS) construction produces minimal waste and uses fewer scarce resources compared to traditional methods.
• Steel is 100% recyclable, reducing the overall environmental impact.
• LGFS is a ‘dry’ system that doesn’t require water resources for mixing materials and provides high acoustic and thermal values for energy-efficient buildings.

Lends itself to off-site construction:

• Light Gauge Formed Steel (LGFS) is well-suited for off-site and modular construction, ensuring greater efficiency and quality in a controlled environment.
• It mitigates the impact of adverse weather and site limitations, improving the commercial viability of projects.
