NATURAL DISASTERS RESISTANT: Superior Resistance to Hurricanes, Tornadoes and Earthquakes due to Composite construction combining concrete with Light-Gauge Steel framing (LGS) inherent high strength. Buildings are designed to meet the strictest seismic and wind specifications in any part of the world.
FOUNDATION COST SAVINGS: Because of its very light-weight compared to RCC, masonry and concrete, 'Thin-shell' concrete panels combined with LGS framing requires smaller foundations. Composite Panels and floors weigh much less than the heavy weight of traditional RCC, masonry and other forms of load bearing construction.
REDUCED SEISMIC FORCES: Low weight also means that seismic forces are much lower than with any other material, fewer and smaller Shear Walls, resulting in turn in the most economical foundations in earthquake prone regions.
FULL SPANS: Composite Concrete embedded LGS can be manufactured to practically any length and can span the entire building column free.
COMPOSITE CONCRETE WITH LGS ASSEMBLIES EASIER TO INSTALL: The high strength to weight ratio of composite panels leads to making assemblies longer and easier to lift and put in place than with traditional framing.
RANGE OF MEMBER THICKNESSES: State of the Art integrated engineering programs use varied LGS members strength often eliminating the need for intermediate supporting beams, walls or columns.
UTILITY RUNS INSTALL EASILY: Pre-punched holes in webs of floor joists and wall studs make the installation of air-conditioning copper piping or ductwork, plumbing pipes and electrical conduits and accessories quick and easy.
FEWER MOISTURE RELATED PROBLEMS: Single cast Composite Concrete Panels with LGS does not absorb moisture as there are no joints unlike masonry walls. Because Panels are a single composite integrated system moisture absorption is minimal and it will not grow mold and mildew causing peeling of plaster or interior paints.
PROTECTION AGAINST CORROSION: LGS metal has improved galvanized zinc coating to protect against corrosion. For construction sites close to ocean and sea coastlines the zinc coating provides this added advantage over RCC system using uncoated rebar steel. Minor scratches in the coating are self healing by compensating with zinc from adjacent untouched areas.
RESISTANCE TO INSECTS: Composite Concrete Panels with LGS resists termite attack and other vermin since there are no cracks, joints, or point of entries.
IMPROVED FIRE SAFETY: Composite Concrete Panel with LGS has long been the choice for noncombustible construction, acceptable to both commercial and residential construction.
A GREEN CHOICE: Composite Concrete Panels with LGS emits no toxic fumes or vapors and does not support the growth of molds or other fungi. LGS is 100% recyclable and includes 30% to 100% recycled content depending on the roll steel making process.
