There are two main mechanical characteristics of light-frame buildings, namely load sharing and repeated and compound effects. Load sharing means that all components in the system have both division of labor and cooperation, and work together to bear the load. Even if a component fails-it is not able to bear the part of the load it should bear, it does not matter. The neighbors will take the lead ...

How is Cold-Formed Steel Framing Made? The production of cold-formed steel begins with the production of raw steel. This is made by combining iron ore or scrap steel with carbon in a furnace. Then, cold-formed steel framing is made from sheets of this structural steel. These sheets are fed through roll-forming machines, which turn the steel into c-shaped sections or other shapes (depending on the ...

Origin of LGS Structure • It is derived from the construction technology of balsa wood structure and follows the construction method of 2*4 wood structure; • Using galvanized steel sheet with thickness of 1.0mm-2.4mm to roll cold-formed thin-walled steel skeleton; • The keel interval of the wall endurance structure (C-section steel) is 406mm or 610mm; • A variety of cladding materials are covered ...

Metal studs are cold-formed steel components used for framing basement and partition walls just as regular wooden apparatuses. They are mainly used to support non-load bearing walls. On the other hand, metal stud framing is the process of erecting walls and panes using cold-steel components. Metal stud framing has two major apparatuses – the stud and the truck. Heavy gauge metal studs are used in ...

The designs of light gauge steel frame buildings are designed according to permanent building specifications just like in reinforced concrete buildings. Calculations are made according to the load required to be carried. In addition, since they are significantly lighter than reinforced concrete, they are much less exposed to earthquake loads. This significantly increases the earthquake resistance ...
