Advantages of Steel
Cost Effective and Quick to Build
With frameCAD's accurate steel frame components, construction isquick and simple allowing low-cost, low-skilled labour to be usedwith high quality results.
Strong and Design-Flexible
Steel offers architectural and design flexibility due to itsinherent strength. This allows large span distances and curves tobe easily incorporated into designs.
Durable and Safe
Steel frames won't ignite, burn, rust or get eaten by peststherefore making them highly desirable in extreme environmentalconditions. Steel also doesn't need to be treated with pesticides,preservatives or glues making it safer for handling and living orworking around.
Steel frame Production and Construction
Steel framed buildings, manufactured using frameCAD's 5-Star Steelframe System, can be produced very quickly and constructed usingmodular, prefab, build-on-site or transportable methods enablingconstruction flexibility for lower overheads, quicker manufacturingand improved profitability.
Environmentally Friendly
Steel delivers a number of unique environmental benefits such asproduct longevity, recyclability, easy transportation and less rawmaterial wastage.
Fire Resistant
Severe bush fire test at over 1000 deg C endorses steel framedhousing.
Earthquake Tested
Structural integrity of steel framed houses tested in full-scalesimulations resulting in positive outcome.
