Easy construction of a house using light weight steel frames

2 men can erect an average steel framed house of 150 m2 in 2 – 3 days






Day one.

At 7 o'clock in the morning the house is set out according the plans.










Once the walls have been set out and checked carefully that everything is square, the steel wall frames, which are all clearly numbered in accordance with the plans, are brought into place.






The steel walls are set up and connected to each other with self drilling screws.

Where indicated the outside walls and bracing walls are fixed to the concrete slab with chemical anchors or exspansion bolts all in accordance with engineering specifications.

The holes for the bolts are already pre-punched in the frames.


Day two.

The steel roof trusses can be installed.
Depending how complicated the roof is, this work can be done 1 or 2 days.







Day 3.

After 2 or 3 days the 2 men have finished their job and other trades people can start to install the gutters, bring on the roofing and place windows and external doors.
