PREFAB HOUSE PROJECTS
Possibilities of prefab house projects with steel frame construction
Are you a contractor, architect project developer or real estate entrepreneur developing multiple dwellings or other prefabricated housing projects? Then consider Steel Frame Construction where you can quickly and inexpensively erect multiple custom-built homes for yourself or your client.
Ripstaal Steelframing is the expert in the field of steel frame construction and has extensive experience in manufacturing various homes based on Steelframing.
Based on the technical drawing, Ripstaal Steelframing makes the design and the steel profiles are made in our factory. You can then assemble the steel profiles on the basis of the construction drawing. The steel frame can then be finished into fully-fledged houses as required.

Take a look at the production process of Ripstaal Steelframing
Prefab: from drawing to production
Precast construction, as mentioned, is based on Steel Framing. Production is a precise process and must be 100% calculated in advance. Therefore, we should have a Technical Drawing of your construction project. A technical drawing is usually made by an architect.
Based on the technical drawing, we can start the engineering in which the building project is analysed in terms of design and construction. Here, we determine what is needed to create a suitable steel framework for your building design.
It is therefore important to have an architect (or technical draftsman) assist you. We cannot make an offer without a technical drawing.
Projects completed
The possibilities for prefabricated housing construction are endless. Think of prefabricated terraced houses, detached houses or chalet houses on a recreation park, for example. Then watch the video in the box opposite.

Advantages of prefabricated house construction with Steelframing
Every construction project requires a different approach. This depends not only on the style of the property, but also on the materials available and the amount of time the construction project may take.
These are also the immediate advantages of Steelframing for prefabricated house construction. Is time scarce and/or there are few tradesmen to help with construction? Then prefabricated steel-frame construction a solution and you've come to the right place at Ripstaal Steel Framing.
Short construction time on site
Fully insulated

What does prefabricated house construction with Steelframing cost?
What is the price of a prefabricated house construction using Steelframing? This is a common question and depends on a lot of factors such as;
- The size of the property(s)
- The type of property
- The number of floors,
- Degree of finishing on delivery (see various options),
- Other choice of materials
Building prefab homes with steel frame construction is a much cheaper construction method. You can build up to 30 per cent save on the structural costs of building prefabricated houses.

What else should you know about prefabricated houses built using Steel Frame Construction?
Precast construction using Steel Framing is basically a way to set up the framework of a building quickly and easily. It does involve some (mathematical) work. The frames are drawn in a 3D drawing programme. This drawing is fed into the machine, which then produces customised cold-formed C-profiles.
However, the frame of the prefab houses needs to be finished inside and outside. Think, for example, of cladding and roofing on the outside and, for the inside, plumbing, electricity and wall finishing. At Ripstaal Steelframing, you can choose from the following options:
With this option, we deliver loose profiles that have not yet been assembled. This means that you receive a kit that has to be fully assembled on site. We provide this kit with an installation drawing showing how the frame should be assembled. This allows you to quickly and easily assemble the steel frame.
If you want to save a bit more time on site, it is possible to order partially assembled frames. Here, we make complete frames that are then easily attached to each other. All frames are numbered and, based on an installation drawing, the steel frame is quickly assembled.
With this option, we not only provide complete frames that are easy to assemble. We also provide these frames with exterior cladding. This makes it possible to quickly and easily install interior pipes, insulation and a vapour control layer before completely sealing the wall.

Why Ripstaal Group?
At Ripstaal, we combine prefabricated construction with the advantages of Steel frame construction. The benefits are;
- Light construction. Steel frames are lightweight, much lighter than traditional construction. This has several advantages, including that the foundation can be made a lot lighter.
- Durable: The construction is fully reusable, generates little waste during production and easy to build gap-tight.
- Strong: The construction can even withstand severe storms. Longhorn and other pests cannot attack the structure (unlike timber frame construction)
- Cost-saving: Save as much as 30% on shell construction costs. For example, less labour is needed at the construction site.
- Architectural freedom: Any shape can be implemented and large spans are possible. Also suitable for more complex projects.
- Meets all requirements: Design of cold-rolled steel profiles meets requirements of Eurocodes 3, and system meets all requirements of the Building Regulations
- Under controlled weather conditions production takes place regardless of rain, wind or frost. This is followed by fast assembly on the building site, without drying times.
