Here, we’ve answered some of the most common questions we’re asked about our services and Light Gauge Steel Frame systems. Here’s everything you need to know.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Light Gauge Steel Frame?
Light Gauge Steel Frame (LGSF), also known as cold-formed steel, is crafted from high-quality steel coil, roll-forming the steel through a series of dies. Unlike hot-formed structural I-Beams that require heat for shaping, roll-formed steel can be shaped without the need for heat, making the process more efficient and cost-effective.
Is Light Gauge Steel stronger than timber?
Yes, steel framing offers superior strength, durability and resistance to environmental damage compared to traditional timber construction.
Can LGSF be used for residential projects?
Absolutely, we design, manufacture and supply Light Gauge Steel Frame systems for homes, apartments and residential developments.
What are the main benefits of Light Gauge Steel Frames?
Light gauge steel frame construction enables a faster building process, ensuring compliance with delivery schedules. The lightweight nature of the material can reduce or eliminate the need for large lifting equipment, streamlining construction. This construction method requires less water compared to traditional approaches, promoting sustainable practices. Light Gauge Steel Frames are easy to transport, enhancing mobility and logistics efficiency. Steel is the most recycled product on the planet, making it one of the best environmentally friendly construction materials.
How thick is a Light Gauge Steel Frame?
The material thickness range varies from 1mm to 1.6mm, with variable tensile strength, also having a Z275 micron coating.
