Advantages of LGS Steel Construction by Tradecorp
High-Quality Materials
As a trusted steel contractor, Tradecorp uses high-quality cold-formed steel for its light gauge steel (LGS) frames. This premium material is resistant to corrosion and rust, ensuring the structure does not easily shrink, crack, or absorb moisture. It is also termite-resistant, making it a durable choice for long-term construction.
Lightweight Yet Strong
Our steel contractor solutions with LGS framing create building structures that are 30-60% lighter than conventional concrete structures. Despite being lightweight, LGS steel frames can withstand temperatures of up to 1,000°C, resist strong winds, and remain stable during earthquakes.
Manufactured in Factory with High Standards
All LGS steel frames from Tradecorp are manufactured and fabricated in our own facility. As a professional steel contractor, we utilize advanced Light Gauge Steel Frame Cold Roll Forming machines equipped with design software to accurately read and execute structural frame designs.
Advanced and Efficient Technology
Our production machines are powered by advanced technology that enables fast, large-scale manufacturing with high precision. With computerized systems, our steel contractor process ensures efficient and accurate production of wall frames, roof trusses, floor joists, panels, and other structural components.
Everything You Need to Know About Light Gauge Steel Construction by a Steel Contractor
Light gauge steel construction uses cold-formed steel as the structural framework for buildings such as houses, staff housing, warehouses, two-storey buildings, and residential developments.
Light gauge steel is commonly used for residential, metal-framed, and commercial buildings. In contrast, heavy steel framing consists of larger, thicker structural steel elements that are formed at high temperatures and are typically used for major structural applications.
Light gauge steel frames typically have a thickness ranging from 0.8 mm to 1 mm. Despite being relatively thin, this material is strong and reliable for building construction.
Yes. Light gauge steel frames are made from steel sheets with a thickness of 0.8 mm to 1 mm, making them about 30% lighter than wood and up to 60% lighter than concrete structures.
Light gauge steel frames are made from steel sheets formed through a cold-forming process. Known as cold-formed steel, this material is often coated with zinc-aluminium, making it lightweight and suitable for applications such as roofing panels and floor systems.
No. In addition to commercial buildings, light gauge steel construction is widely used for residential, office, operational, and industrial buildings.
Light gauge steel components are commonly used for roofs, floors, walls, and roofing panels.
Yes. Light gauge steel construction has fire-resistant properties. The level of resistance depends on the duration and intensity of fire exposure on both the internal and external sides of the structure.
Yes. Cold-formed light gauge steel is proven to be resistant to corrosion and rust.
