| Site Fixed Framing (SFS) system: | |  | SFS is a versatile fast track building system manufactured from lightweight, cold roll formed galvanised steel sections which are screwed together on site.
This system is ideal for projects where the speed of construction and / or a lightweight frame is crucial. The stud size, spacing and anchorage are all determined by floor-to-floor heights, deflection criteria and lateral wind pressures | | Free Standing Low Rise Buildings: |
|  |
The high strength to weight ratio of the SFS galvanised cold rolled sections is a major benefit when designing stand-alone structures and rooftop extensions up to 4 storeys in height.
Advantages: - Dry construction techniques
- Savings in structural design
- Ease of manoeuvring sections
- Fully substantiated performance data
- Wide choice of lining options
|
| | | Continuous Walling: |
|  |
Constructed on the outside of the building and fixed back to the main structural frame using steel cleats.
This is an ideal application for two and three storey buildings where floor areas need to be maximised.
Advantages: - Early weather protection to the building
- Lightweight, dry construction
- Pre-fabrication on or off site
- Achieves high thermal and acoustic performance
- Wind posts not required
- Gives lateral support to most external cladding materials
- Minimises wet trades on site
