The advantages of light gauge steel in construction projects is a popular choice for construction firms globally now due to its erection speed and cost efficiency.  On average and in our expereince, the use of offsite light gauge steel manufacturing saves contractors weeks and months onsite.   This steel is manufactured off-site, which decreases build time on site.  There is less variability in the end product of the construction pieces and this saves you further time,  leading to fewer callbacks for your team.

Assembling this type of steel on the construction site is more straightforward than working with less predictable building materials.  We have years of industry experience and our teams have manufactured steel frames for data centres, educational facilities, industrial facilities, residential developments etc.  On average our build is complete around 4 weeks (depending on the size of the project of course).  

 

 

The sustainability of light gauge steel is making it a viable alternative to usual construction methods.  Steel is much more durable than other building materials. Galvanised steel is well known for its ability to resist decay and corrosion.  Unlike wood, steel will not warp, crack, swell, or shrink, nor is it susceptible to mildew or mould.  The highly accurate nature of the planning and manufacturing process leads to less waste material. This is far better for the environment.

If the structure is located in a wet, moist, or humid area, then steel is the most cost effective option longterm. It not only improves structural safety but health safety of the building inhabitents too.  In natural disasters, steel often holds up better than other building materials. Whether it’s a seismic event or wind, steel structures are known to survive – an important factor to consider giving our ongoing problems with climate change.

 

All of this ensures a fast, efficient and cost efficient system for your construction project.  Contact us for any further details at info@horizonos.ie, or to discuss your project.
