Steel has many fundamental benefits over other building materials. Steel is not prone to shrinkage, warping, rot, infestation or moisture absorption. Lightweight steel frames are dynamic, offering easily made design revisions/alterations and site programme predictability. Due to its lightweight nature, it reduces foundation requirements and makes radical renovations achievable.

Lightweight steel frames are prefabricated in a factory ensuring all the material arrives to site assembled with factory standards of accuracy, 100% correct & ready for erection. The concept ensures minimal wastage in manufacture. Steel components are manufactured to size from stock coils where yield losses are minimal.

The product’s biggest advantage is the speed or delivery and erection with a reduction in programme of up to 30% compared to traditional brick and mortar. Unlike other building methods, a change to weather conditions doesn’t hamper erection. Once the building is enclosed and insulated, fit out trades can complete interior lining. A dry construction method improves quality and eliminates drying out times. Therefore wet trades are greatly reduced. Insulated walls improve energy and acoustic efficiency.

The R-Values for lightweight steel framed homes is far superior to that of brick and mortar.

A number of benefits are highlighted below:

- High productivity with factory standards of accuracy
- Cost savings & value for money
- Less damage and waste during shipping or other transport due to packing methods
- Assembled in-factory and delivered to site, ready to use
- The steel frames will not ignite and will not contribute to a fire
- The frame has a zinc/aluminium alloy coating which is self healing and prevents corrosion at cut edges
- Will not rust; will not absorb moisture or dry out and cannot harbour dry rot
- Guarantee no shrinking, warping or twisting
- Dynamic and are fully engineered
- Are precision engineered ensuring every wall and roof truss is in perfect alignment
- High tensile strength yet lightweight
- Smaller building teams
- Higher R-Value & energy efficient
- Are safe to handle - no chemical treatment
- Can be built with minimal site-disturbance
- Eliminates ongoing maintenance costs
- Reduce wet trades on site
- 100% impervious to termite, white ant and borer attack
