Steel Frame Buildings for Assembled Homes

Steel structure prefabricated residential buildings represent a modern architectural form. They are constructed by assembling and connecting prefabricated steel components produced in factories on-site. Steel structures themselves feature light self-weight, high strength, and superior seismic performance. Moreover, as the materials can be recycled, they are more environmentally friendly. The beams and columns of steel structure prefabricated residential buildings have smaller cross-sections, allowing for more usable space. Additionally, steel can be 100% recycled, and the walls are flexible and adjustable, meeting personalized space requirements. They are an innovative residential model that combines environmental friendliness, economic efficiency, and long-term durability, promoting the transformation and sustainable development of the construction industry.

Q&A

Q: Is the cost higher than that of traditional houses?

A: The initial material cost is higher, but the construction period is shorter and the later maintenance cost is lower. The overall cost performance is higher, especially in large-scale standardized construction, it is more economical.

Q: Will the steel rust or corrode?

A: Hot-dip galvanizing, anti-corrosion coatings or weathering steel are used, and strict moisture-proof sealing is carried out. Under normal maintenance, the service life can reach more than 50 years. In humid areas, enhanced protective design is required.

Q: Is the appearance design monotonous?

A: The modular design supports flexible combinations. The exterior facade can be matched with metal panels, glass curtain walls, decorative panels, etc., with diverse styles to meet modern minimalist or personalized needs.

Q: How much can the construction period be shortened?

A: The factory prefabrication rate is 70% - 90%, and only assembly is required on site. The construction period is 30% - 50% shorter than that of traditional buildings, especially suitable for projects that need to be delivered urgently.

Q: How is the sound insulation and thermal insulation effect of steel structure houses?

A: By filling rock wool, glass wool and other thermal insulation and sound insulation materials, combined with double-layer walls or composite enclosure structures, the sound insulation and thermal insulation performance can reach or even exceed that of traditional brick-concrete buildings.
