We Turn Old to New
Light gauge steel trusses are prefabricated structural components made from thin, high-tensile steel sheets.
Light gauge steel framing is also referred to as steel frame, cold-formed Steel, cold formed steel framing, CFS, CFS framing as well as light gauge steel frame, LGS and LGSF.
Light gauge steel framing is suitable for multi-story constructions due to its strength-to-weight ratio and stability. It can support heavy loads and provides excellent resistance to lateral forces, such as wind and earthquakes.
LIGHT GAUGE STEEL STRUCTURES
We manufacture Light Gauge Steel (LGS) metal trusses which are Eco-friendly, lightweight, strong, termite & fire resistant, easy to install and do not shrink, warp or decompose like wood. Mabati Yetu roofing products are pre-engineered for different roof designs and floor plans thus minimizing on wastage. We customize service holes as per customer requirements to facilitate laying of electrical and IT conduits. Our Light gauge steel is suitable for residential houses, schools, churches, warehouses, factory premises, sports stadia, shopping malls, airport hangars, auditoriums and real estates at large. We deliver premium quality metal roofing Mabati at affordable prices.
Key Features and Benefits
- Strength and Durability: Despite their lightweight nature, steel trusses are incredibly strong and resistant to warping, shrinking, and rotting. This ensures a long lifespan and minimal maintenance.
- Versatility: Steel trusses can be customized to fit a wide range of roof designs, pitches, and spans. They can accommodate complex architectural features and large open spaces.
- Cost-Effectiveness: While the initial cost of steel trusses may be slightly higher than timber trusses, their long-term durability and reduced maintenance costs make them a cost-effective solution over time.
- Speed of Construction: Prefabricated steel trusses can be quickly and easily installed, reducing construction time and labor costs.
- Fire Resistance: Steel is inherently fire-resistant, providing an added layer of safety for your building.
- Environmental Friendliness: Steel is a recyclable material, making it an environmentally sustainable choice for construction
In summary, while light gauge steel framing can be more expensive upfront due to higher material costs, the overall cost can be offset by reduced labor expenses, faster construction times and offers savings in terms of durability, maintenance, and design flexibility. Wood framing is generally less expensive initially but may incur higher maintenance costs over time.
