About technology

LGSF buildings can be used as residential, amenity, commercial or industrial facilities. Metal structures are considered to be a cost-effective solution for adding attics, reconstructing shabby houses, and erecting ventilated heat-resistant facades.

ProfStalDom designs made-to-order buildings and manufactures custom-tailored LGSF. The structures produced for erecting a residential house, a hangar-type warehouse or a shop can stand for more than 50 years without any deformations. LGSF technology has become widespread thanks to non-waste construction, possibility of assembling or completely dismantling a house frame within the shortest period of time, low material and construction costs, as well as a light weight and high strength of erected structures.

Metal frame houses are currently increasing their popularity and are likely to put competitive pressure on more convenient materials for construction of houses, such as bricks, concrete blocks, wood, and stone. LGSF buildings look very attractive and modern, and they have a lot of finishing options depending on the purpose of the building, climate and soil, financial possibilities and visual preferences. Metal profile buildings can be heat and sound insulated with any material. The frame made of metal a few millimeters thick has a minimum weight, thus any finishing and facing materials can be used without imposing significant loads on load-bearing floors and foundations.

Main advantages of LGSF construction technology

Erection of residential and amenity facilities with LGSF frames has a lot of advantages that ensure long, convenient and trouble-free operation of such buildings:

• Minimum expenses for construction materials and services of erectors - accurate construction project plan helps to avoid any unnecessary expenses for profiles and components, with a light weight of structures making it possible to do without any heavy machinery in the process of construction.
• Ease of erection, high speed of construction - light weight and small dimensions of steel profiles make it possible to do without solid foundation and allow constructing a low-rise building within a few weeks, regardless of season and weather conditions.
• Building reliability and strength, absence of deformation and shrinkage - correctly erected frame is capable of withstanding impressive loads, even in case of minor ground movements in the areas of seismic activity, therefore the walls are protected against cracks, and the building has a very long useful life and remains completely reliable and safe for its tenants.
• LGSF moisture-resistant coating - all profiles are subject to high-quality plant treatment with zinc and polymer compositions, with the galvanized and painted cottage frame being protected against corrosion and gradual destruction.
• Environmental safety - raw materials used for LGSF production and compositions used for treatment of metal structures are environmentally friendly under all operating conditions (heating, high humidity, exposure to chemicals, mechanical damages, etc.).
• Incombustibility of steel frame structures and finishing materials makes LGSF houses safe and durable as compared to wooden buildings, and optimal in terms of price, service life and convenience of living in such a house.
