Steel is the most widely used construction material across the globe. Due to advancements in construction technology and the depletion of natural resources, the use of steel structures is now becoming popular.
What is a Light Gauge Steel Structure?
Here, cold-formed steel is used as the primary construction material. Due to its high strength, vermin resistance and lightweight nature, the cold-formed steel is gaining popularity for low to mid-rise construction. They are also easy to handle, cost effective and is easily fabricated to a wide range of dimensions and shapes with minimal material waste, not to mention their long-term durability and stability.
Advantages of light gauge steel structure
As one of the most sustainable building methods available today, light gauge steel framing has many advantages such as adaptability, off-site manufacture, reusability, recycling, and cost efficiency. Light-gauge steel construction offers cost-effective and environmentally friendly solutions that are conducive to the construction of small buildings, making it a technology with enormous growth potential and widespread application. Light gauge steel frame construction solution is suitable for building residential complexes, academic institutions, plant offices, industrial amenities, and infrastructure for communities.
Due to the rapid evolution of our world today and the depletion of resources it has become more important than ever to use resources and develop more sustainable technologies. To construct infrastructure while maintaining ecological awareness and within a short time frame, alternative, innovative, and effective construction solutions are needed.
