Steel framing is much more than a new way to build. At its core, it consists of a structure made of galvanized steel profiles that provide the necessary strength to erect a house. But what exactly makes up a Steel Framing panel?
- Reinforced Concrete Slab:
This is the starting point, the foundation on which the house rests. Here, Steel Framing stands out by allowing shallower foundations due to its lighter weight, which reduces the use of materials like concrete and rebar. Additionally, on sloped sites, this technique saves time and costs by avoiding excessive earthworks. - Cement Board:
An adaptable exterior cladding that provides not only protection but also a variety of aesthetic options for the home. From corrugated metal sheets to siding panels, Steel Framing offers unmatched versatility. - Water and Wind Barrier:
This barrier not only protects against the elements but also ensures efficient insulation, maintaining indoor temperatures throughout the seasons and reducing energy costs. - OSB Board:
Essential for structural stability and rigidity, preventing unwanted movements and ensuring the solidity of the construction. - Glass Wool Insulation:
A key component for insulating against cold and noise, significantly improving the comfort and energy efficiency of the home. - Drywall:
The interior finish that provides a final coating and allows customization of interiors according to tastes and needs. - Galvanized Steel Structural Profile (PGC):
The base of the structure, lightweight yet strong, providing the necessary strength at a considerably lower weight than traditional construction. - Vapor Barrier:
Prevents moisture buildup, ensuring a dry and healthy environment for the inhabitants.
Choosing Steel Framing is based on resource optimization and efficiency at every stage of construction:
- Lower Cost:
Construction costs are up to 10% less per square meter compared to traditional methods, thanks to precise material use and faster execution. - Shorter Time:
Construction timelines are reduced by up to 50%, allowing faster builds regardless of weather, without significant cost increases.
Steel Framing not only represents an efficient way to build but also offers a more comfortable and sustainable environment. Discover the new era in construction with Grupo J3!
