Technology & design

Improve operational efficiencies and LGS precision with the technologically advanced cold roll forming machine from FRAMECAD. Designed and manufactured in New Zealand, FRAMECAD's roll forming machine integrates innovative engineering, design and production software to produce frames, trusses and joists that are ready to be assembled with ease.

HBS and Framecad, with a long history corporation, seek to utilize this technology for the most building system in term of integrity, durability and sustainability. 

LIGHT GAUGE STEEL LGS

Steel frame houses take many architectural forms. The versatility of Cold Formed Steel LGS, makes it ideal for constructing both simple and challenging designs.

LGS construction offers a highly versatile design, fast, accurate and cost-efficient production and ease of assembly. With its flexible, strong, and durable properties, LGS lightweight construction system (which minimizes loads on foundations and saves on sub-structure costs) is the ideal building system for all forms of steel frame homes.

Benefits of LGS

Working with LGS structural steel has some major benefits that make it an ideal option for steel construction for residential homes. Here are a few key benefits of using steel frames:

1. Quality – Steel frames will not twist, warp, or shrink. This means a higher-quality finish and straight internal walls.
2. Non-combustible – Steel won’t contribute to house fires.
3. Environmentally resilient – Steel frames are termite-proof, mold resistant and perform well in earthquakes.
4. Strength - Fewer columns and stud supports are required when constructing with steel frames.
5. Lightweight – Steel frames are typically 1/3 the weight of wood, making them easier to move around on-site. There is less reliance on cranes, which can remove health and safety hazards and reduce costs.
6. Design-led – Plumbing and electrical services can be pre-punched, making it quicker for the onsite teams.
7. Sustainability – steel is 100% recyclable, and any waste can be reused to create future steel structures.

Working with LGS is more efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly, making it a supreme choice for the Steel Construction of Residential Homes. Residential steel buildings are the future - their versatility, strength, and durability make them the perfect choice for your next residential project.
