One of the biggest advantages of cold-formed steel is its high strength to weight ratio. This allows manufacturers and framers to fabricate long trusses with clear spans up to 25 meters.<\/p>\n
Steel trusses can be easily designed with clear spans up to 14 meters. Beyond that,<\/span> a thicker material or boxed profile would be required along with specially designed connections.(<\/span>Note: In many areas,<\/span> there are transportation limitations when truss span exceeds 15 meters)<\/span>. For long trusses,<\/span> intermediate bearing supports can also be used to reduce the size and thickness of the truss members.<\/p>\n [\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”WHAT WE DO?”]<\/p>\n STEEL BUILD Offers Unique Light Weight Steel Framing Technology for Srilanka.

The first 8-storey building in the USA built with steel framing was completed in 1999 in Seattle,<\/span>Washington(<\/span>a high seismic area)<\/span>.<\/p>\n Mid-rise buildings (<\/span>5 or 6 levels)<\/span> in cold-formed steel are also very common and many have been built around the world in the past 20 years or so.<\/p>\n From an engineering point of view,<\/span> there is no limit on the number of storeys that can be built with cold-formed steel framing.<\/p>\n [\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”EXPEDITIOUS CONSTRUCTION”]<\/p>\n Time taken for construction can be reduced by up to 50% using modular building techniques,<\/span> which translates into an earlier return on your investment.<\/p>\n [\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”SUPERIOR QUALITY”]<\/p>\n No Expansion. No Contraction<\/p>\n Our steel sections are pf high quality ensured by a zero tolerance manufacturing process. Structural steel studs,<\/span> floor joists and roof trusses do not expand or contract,<\/span> shrink-wrap or twist over time. This reduces the risk of drywall damage,<\/span> nail pops,<\/span> jamming of doors,<\/span> sagging roof lines or the formation of gaps leading to costly energy loss.<\/p>\n [\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Greater Durability”]<\/p>\n Steel framing is unaffected by temperature and humidity changes,<\/span> making your building more stable and durable. There is no need to wait for the structure to shrink or settle as with traditional building methods.<\/p>\n [\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What are the applications of cold-formed steel`{`CFS`}`?”]<\/p>\n Cold Formed Steel shapes can be used for roof system,<\/span> floor systems,<\/span> wall systems,<\/span> roof panels,<\/span> decks,<\/span> or entire buildings. They can also be used as individual framing members such as studs,<\/span> joists,<\/span> headers,<\/span> and truss members.Cold Formed Steel members can also serve as both primary structures and secondary<\/p>\n [\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What is the difference between hot-rolled steel and cold-formed steel?”]<\/p>\n There are many differences between the two materials:<\/p>\n Cold-formed steel(<\/span>CFS)<\/span> is typically limited to light thicknesses (<\/span>up to 3.00 mm)<\/span> while hot rolled steel can be manufactured to any desired thickness.<\/p>\n CFS shapes are different than hot rolled shapes and endless geometrical shapes can be produced.<\/p>\n CFS is manufactured at room temperature while hot rolled steel is made at elevated temperature.<\/p>\n CFS lightweight makes it easier and more economical to mass-produce,<\/span>transport and install.<\/p>\n In the design of hot-rolled steel shapes,<\/span> the primarily concern is column buckling and lateral buckling of unbraced beams.The dimensions of hot-rolled shapes are such that local bucking of individual elements generally will not occur before yielding.In the case of CFS local buckling must also be considered because,<\/span> in most cases,<\/span> the material used is thin relative to its width. this means that the individual flat,<\/span> or plate,<\/span> elements of the section often have width to thickness ratios that will permit buckling at stresses well below the yield point.<\/p>\n [\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Is a steel framed house safe in lightning storms?”]<\/p>\n Yes. Steel provides a safe path for lightning to travel directly to the ground with less resistance that can cause damege or a fire. Therefore,<\/span>steel offers more protection than a conventional building.<\/p>\n [\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Will steel framing rust?”]<\/p>\n No. Structural light steel framing members are coated with an enhanced zinc and aluminim coating,<\/span> which protects the steel from corrosion.<\/p>\n [\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Can I hang pictures on a steel framed wall?”]<\/p>\n Yes. Pictures can be hung from the drywall and heavier objects can be hung with self-tapping screws directly to the steel stud. Fasteners are available at any hardware store.<\/p>\n [\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Will a steel framed building look different than others?”]<\/p>\n No. A steel framed building or home is 100% compatible with all standard buildding finishes. We will finish your home with the exact interior and exterior finishes you would use for a traditionally constructed home\/building.<\/p>\n [\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”WHAT WE DO”][\/vc_toggle][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”661″ img_size=”large” style=”vc_box_border” onclick=”link_image”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”662″ img_size=”large” alignment=”right” style=”vc_box_border” onclick=”img_link_large”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row][\/vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] FAQ [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][\/vc_column][vc_toggle title=”What is maximum span for steel truss?”] One of the biggest advantages of cold-formed steel is its high strength to weight ratio.
