Steel Structure Features and Benefits

Steel structures, which are mainly made of steel, are one of the main types of building structures. Steel is characterized by high strength, light weight and high stiffness, so it is particularly suitable for the construction of large-span and ultra-high and ultra-heavy buildings.

Seismic resistance: most of the roofs of low-rise villas are sloping roofs, so the roof structure basically adopts the triangular roof frame system made of cold-formed steel members, and the lightweight steel members form a very strong “plate rib structure system” after sealing structural panels and gypsum boards, which is a structural system with stronger seismic resistance and resistance to horizontal loads, and it is suitable for the areas with seismic intensity of 8 degrees or above.

Wind resistance: the section steel structure building is light weight, high strength, good overall rigidity and strong deformation ability. The self-weight of the building is only one-fifth of that of the brick-concrete structure, and it can resist hurricane winds of 70 meters per second, so that life and property can be effectively protected.

Durability: The light steel structure residential structure is composed of cold-formed thin-walled steel component system, and the steel skeleton is made of super anticorrosive high-strength cold-rolled galvanized sheet, which effectively avoids the influence of rust and corrosion of the steel plate in the process of construction and use, and increases the service life of the light steel components. The service life of the structure is up to 100 years.

Heat preservation: The heat preservation and insulation material is mainly made of fiberglass wool, which has good heat preservation and insulation effect. The thermal insulation board used in the external wall effectively avoids the phenomenon of “cold bridge” of the wall, and achieves better thermal insulation effect. 100mm thick R15 thermal insulation cotton can be equivalent to the thermal resistance value of a 1m thick brick wall.

Sound insulation: sound insulation effect is an important index to assess the residence, light steel system installation of windows are used hollow glass, sound insulation effect is good, sound insulation up to 40 decibels or more; by the light steel keel, thermal insulation material gypsum board composed of walls, its sound insulation effect can be as high as 60 decibels.

Healthiness: dry construction reduces the pollution caused by waste to glthe environment, the steel structure material of the house can be 100% recycled, and most of the other supporting materials can be recycled, which is in line with the current environmental protection consciousness; all the materials are green building materials, which meet the requirements of the ecological environment and are conducive to health.

Comfort: The light steel wall adopts high efficiency energy-saving system and has breathing function, which can adjust the dryness and humidity of indoor air; the roof has ventilation function, which can form a flowing air space over the interior of the house to ensure the ventilation and heat dissipation demand inside the roof.

Fast: all dry work construction, not affected by environmental seasons. For a building of about 300 square meters, it only takes 5 workers 30 working days to complete the whole process from foundation to decoration.

Environmental protection: the materials can be 100% recycled, truly green and pollution-free.

Energy-saving: All adopt energy-efficient walls with good heat preservation, insulation and soundproofing effects, which can reach 50% energy-saving standard.
