Advantages of Light Steel Villa

Light steel villa is a housing construction system with light steel keel as the main material and other insulation and decoration materials, which is produced by factory integration and on-site assembly. The structural members are generally composed of cold-formed thin-walled sections, light steel pipes, welded combination I-beams, light H-beams, etc.; the enclosure structure is made of pressed panels or other light materials, collectively called light steel structure. The seismic performance of light steel villa is much better than that of traditional concrete and brick houses. At the same time, because of its light weight, the foundation of light steel structure is easy to handle and suitable for most geological conditions. There is also no need to worry about the danger of termites.

First of all, light steel villa is a young and vital steel structure system, which has been widely used in general industrial and agricultural, commercial and service buildings, such as office buildings, villas, warehouses, stadiums, entertainment, tourism buildings and low and multi-storey residential buildings, etc. It can also be used in areas with inconvenient transportation, tight schedule and movable demountable buildings, which is loved by everyone. The main advantages are as follows.
Energy saving and environmental protection: light steel structure can be recycled to a high standard, and energy consumption is reduced by 65% compared with traditional brick and mortar structure.
High degree of prefabrication: all the building materials in the whole light steel integrated house can be pre-engineered and prefabricated, with high degree of mechanization, realizing the industrialization of living.
Light self-weight and material saving: the structural material has high strength, thin thickness and steel saving, and the overall self-weight of the house is light, only about 1/4 of the traditional brick and concrete structure. It also greatly reduces the cost of transportation and lifting, and the foundation load is reduced accordingly, lowering the foundation cost.

Construction cost: low requirement for foundation, especially suitable for mountain, river bank, sandy land, island and other areas with complicated and harsh terrain.
Safety and durability: The wall and roof frame structure and the inner wall panel form a strong "plate and rib structure", which greatly improves the ability to resist horizontal load and vertical load, so it has good seismic and wind resistance.
Practical living: Due to the use of excellent heat and sound insulation and energy-saving structures and materials, the indoor living comfort is greatly improved. The built-in pipes and thinning walls effectively increase the usable area of the house. Coupled with the plasticity of steel structure, the house shape can be complex, diverse and beautiful.
Seismic resistance: Most of the roofs of low-rise light steel villas are slope roofs, so the roof structure basically adopts a triangular roof frame system made of cold-formed steel members, forming a very strong "plate and rib structure system", which has a stronger ability to resist seismic and horizontal loads and is suitable for areas with seismic intensity of 9 degrees or above.
Wind resistance: Light steel villa building is light in weight, high in strength, good in overall rigidity and strong in deformation. The self-weight of the building is only one-fifth of that of brick and mortar structure, and it can resist typhoon of grade 12 or above.

Durability: The light steel villa structure is all composed of cold-formed thin-walled steel components system, and the steel bones are made of super anti-corrosion highly cold-rolled galvanized plates, which effectively avoid the influence of rusting of steel plates during the construction and use, and increase the use of light steel components.
Life span: the life span of the structure can reach 90 years.
Thermal insulation: The thermal insulation materials used in light steel villas are mainly glass fiber wool, which has good thermal insulation effect. The insulation board used for the external wall can effectively avoid the phenomenon of "cold bridge" of the wall and achieve a better insulation effect.
Sound insulation: the sound insulation effect of light steel villa is an important indicator to evaluate the residence, the sound insulation of the inner wall of light steel villa can generally reach 45 decibels, and the sound insulation of the outer wall can generally reach 65 decibels.

Healthiness: dry work construction reduces the pollution caused by waste to the environment, the steel structure materials of the house can be recycled to a high standard, and most of the other supporting materials can also be recycled, which is in line with the current environmental protection awareness; all materials are green building materials, which meet the requirements of ecological environment and are conducive to health.
Comfortable: the wall of light steel villa adopts high-efficiency energy-saving system, which has breathing function and can adjust the dryness and humidity of indoor air; the roof has ventilation function, which can form a flowing air room over the interior of the house and ensure the ventilation and heat dissipation demand inside the roof.
Quick construction: all dry work construction, not affected by environmental seasons. A building of about 200 square meters can be built in only 45 days.
