Why More and More people Choose Light Steel Structure House

Light-weight steel structure is a kind of young and vigorous steel structure system, which has been widely used in general industry, agriculture, commerce and service architecture, movable demolition buildings, so favored by the owners.

Why More and More people Choose Light Steel Structure House

What is light steel structure housing?

Light steel structure residential building is composed of cold-formed thin-walled steel structure as load-bearing skeleton and light wall material as envelope structure. In the United States, Japan, Australia and other developed countries, the light steel structure building system has been used for residential construction, such as in the United States light steel structure housing has accounted for about 25% of ordinary housing, and the technology has been relatively mature.

Compared with the traditional housing structure system, the light steel structure housing has the following characteristics:

1. The construction speed is fast, the construction period is short;
2. The material is light and high-strength, the seismic performance is good, the security is high;
3. The spatial arrangement is flexible, which can satisfy the multifunctional request of the resident;
4. May realize the industrialization and the industrialization of the housing construction.
5. Light weight of structure, less soil taken in foundation construction, less damage to land resources;
6. Small component area, small thickness of envelope structure, can increase the use of the building area.

What is the difference between light and heavy steel structures?

 It is true that there is no uniform standard for judging a structure as heavy or light steel, and many experienced designers or project managers are often unable to fully explain, but we can take some data into account and judge:

The main components of steel plate thickness: greater than or equal to 10MM, is less light steel structure.Steel quantity per square meter: more than or equal to 50KG/M 2, can be considered as heavy steel structure.The crane lifting weight of the workshop: more than or equal to 25 tons, it can be considered as heavy steel structure.

Light-weight steel structure is a kind of young and vigorous steel structure system, which has been widely used in general industry, agriculture, commerce and service architecture, can also be used for the old building storey, transformation, reinforcement and building materials lack of areas, transportation inconvenient areas, time constraints, movable demolition buildings, so favored by the owners, the main features are as follows:

1. the use of efficient light thin-walled profiles, light weight, high strength, small occupation area.
2. based on the above dry method, no wet work, interior decoration, etc. . The profile after galvanizing, coating and beautiful appearance and anti-corrosion, is conducive to reducing the cost of fencing and decoration.
3. the structural design, detailed drawing design, computer simulation installation, factory manufacture, site installation, etc. .
4. based on the above dry method, no wet work, interior decoration, etc. . The profile after galvanizing, coating and beautiful appearance and anti-corrosion, is conducive to reducing the cost of fencing and decoration.
5. it is convenient to enlarge column spacing and provide more space for separation. It can reduce floor height and increase Gross area (up to 92% of the house's saleable area) .
6. indoor plumbing and electrical pipelines are all hidden in the walls and floors, flexible layout, easy to modify.
7. the new wall material is widely used, the day-lighting belt is widely used and the ventilation condition is good.
8. the house can be moved and the materials can be recycled completely without causing waste, in line with the sustainable development strategy.

The application of non-residential buildings in developed countries is very rapid, and is expanding to multi-storey residential buildings. Non-residential buildings are mainly portal-type light steel structures with a span of more than 20m, which are widely used in large-span light industry, electronics, warehouse, processing and other workshops, also has the application in the daily use supermarket, the temporary use room, the airplane hangar and so on.
