Steel frame construction is a revolutionary construction method in which buildings are made using steel structures. This is a framework of slender, steel profiles that together form the basis for the walls, floors and windows in a building. This creates a steel skeleton, after which the building can be finished simply and quickly.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The specific dimensions are easily customisable, allowing almost any construction project to be realised using steel frame construction. All profiles are pre-fabricated and, thanks to their light weight, are easy to transport and assemble. This results in significantly shorter construction time on site.<\/p>

Steel frame construction is a contemporary variant of timber frame construction (HSB for short) and precast concrete. In countries such as England and Sweden, steel frame construction is a well-known construction method. In the Netherlands, steel frame construction is still used on a relatively small scale, but it is quickly gaining popularity among clients, architects and contractors.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Steel frame construction as an alternative to timber frame construction?<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Increasingly\u00a0steel frame construction seen as a better alternative<\/strong>\u00a0on timber frame construction<\/a>. It combines the advantages of HSB with those of steel: lighter in weight, more dimensionally stable thanks to shrink-proof materials, less sensitive to climatic influences and resistant to vermin and mould. Larger spans and cantilevers are also feasible.<\/p>

An additional distinction with precast concrete is its weight and shorter delivery time, as no moulds are used. The added advantage is greater design freedom for small quantities at relatively low cost.<\/p>
