Advantages of Light Gauge Steel Construction:
- High Strength: LGSF allows for greater spacing between structural members compared to traditional wood framing, reducing material usage while maintaining strength.
- Easy Modification: The system can be easily altered or expanded during its lifecycle, making it ideal for evolving design needs.
- Versatile Systems: A wide variety of systems and components are available to support different architectural and structural requirements.
- Fire-Resistant: Light gauge steel is non-combustible, meeting code requirements for many building types and improving overall safety.
- Durability: Unlike wood, steel does not rot, warp, shrink, or decompose, and is resistant to termites and other pests—making it ideal for challenging environments.
