Housing

The benefits of light steel framing and modular construction in housing are:

  • Speed of construction (up to 30% faster than traditional methods of house construction)
  • Excellent performance characteristics e.g. acoustic and thermal insulation.
  • High level of quality control, accuracy and freedom from shrinkage reducing call-back for defects.
  • Light weight for use on poor ground, with reduced foundation requirements.
  • Minimum disturbance to the locality during construction due to reduced number of deliveries.
  • Waste recycling in manufacture and reduction of on-site waste.
  • Compliance with Code for Sustainable Homes.
  • Room in the roof systems can be constructed without difficulty.
  • Can easily be extended and modified internally in the future.
