Light gauge steel framing is typically based on the use of standard C or Z-shaped steel sections produced by cold rolling from strip steel. In general, hot-rolled steel sections used in fabricated steelwork, such as Universal Beams, are different from cold-formed steel sections. Galvanized steel with a typical thickness of 0.9 to 3.2 mm is used in cold-formed sections to prevent corrosion.

 

Cold-formed steel sections are widely utilised in many construction industries, including mezzanine floors, commercial, industrial, and hotel buildings. They are also becoming more popular in the residential market. In North America, Australia, and Japan, light steel frame is already well-established in the residential home construction industry. This article provides information on the various types of light gauge steel frame construction methods for residential buildings.
