Light steel villa, also known as light steel frame houses, primarily consists of light steel studs made from hot-dipped galvanized steel strips cold-rolled together. Supported and combined with accessories, they bear a reasonable load capacity, replacing traditional housing. Due to its light steel frame structure and particularly beautiful design, this new type of house is called a light steel villa.
1. Basic System
Light-gauge steel structure houses have a low self-weight, about one-fifth of brick and concrete structures and about one-eighth of reinforced concrete structures, thus significantly reducing the cost of foundation construction. The foundation for light-gauge steel structure houses typically uses strip foundations.
Light-gauge steel structures have a low self-weight, significantly reducing the cost of foundation engineering.
②Basic moisture-proof design, effectively preventing moisture and harmful gases from infiltrating.
③ Reasonable anchoring methods ensure reliable connection between the foundation and the main structure.
2. Wall Systems
Exterior wall systems typically range from 120-200mm. Due to their slim design, light-gauge steel-framed houses offer an additional 10%-15% of usable space compared to traditional buildings, increasing indoor usable space by over 90%. The interior space can be flexibly partitioned. Pipe installations can be arranged through pre-drilled holes in wall, floor, and roof components, ensuring good concealment and a more aesthetic appearance.
The wall is filled with glass fiber insulation, offering excellent thermal insulation, heat preservation, and soundproofing properties.
② Breathable waterproof paper effectively regulates indoor humidity, enhancing comfort and preventing mold growth within walls.
③ Pipelines are buried within walls, occupying no indoor space.
3. Floor System
The floor is constructed with a combination of high-strength galvanized C and U-shaped light steel members. The floor beams are arranged in a dense rib pattern at equal standard module spacing. The top of the floor beams is covered with structural panels that have been treated with strict moisture and corrosion prevention, forming a sturdy and seismic-resistant floor system.
The structural board and floor steel beam combination offers a sturdy and stable construction.
② Various water and electrical pipelines are concealed within the floor structure, not occupying the building's floor height.
③ Glass fiber cotton is filled in the sandwich layer, providing significant insulation, heat preservation, noise absorption, and sound insulation effects.
4. Roofing System
The trusses are assembled from various lightweight steel components, typically featuring triangular and T-shaped designs. They offer ease and flexibility in creating complex roof shapes. Generally, the roofs are covered with colorful asphalt shingles, which provide excellent waterproofing properties and highlight both beauty and quality.
Composite roofs offer waterproof, weather-resistant, and thermal insulation features, allowing for a wide variety of designs.
② Ventilation and circulation design ensures fresh air at all times.
5. Structural Components
All structural components are made of high-strength galvanized steel, ensuring the longevity of the building. Each structural component is precision cold-formed on a factory's mechanical assembly line, with dimensions accurate to the millimeter, surpassing other structures in quality.
