The steel frame kits from Spark Homes can be used to build a wide range of structures. This includes:
There are many cladding options when building with our light gauge steel frame kits, including:
Essentially any cladding used with traditional wood frame construction can be used with our steel frame kits. Also, most traditional methods of cladding can be adapted to work with light gauge steel framing.
Why You Should Build with Steel
While timber and wood has been used to build homes for hundreds of years diminishing supplies of trees has lead to builders requiring a new material to build strong and sturdy homes with.
At Spark Homes we are well aware that all the myths surrounding light gauge steel framing are just that: myths. Over recent years light gauge steel framing has become the prime material used in the construction of domestic and light commercial properties.
Some of the advantages of our high-quality steel frame kits are:
Unlike timber framework, steel framework will not succumb to the damage that termites can cause. As termites only consume timber materials our steel frame kits are completely avoided by termites, making them a better alternative for builders.
When materials, such as timber, are exposed to damp conditions toxic mould can grow on the surface. This mould can lead to hazardous lung issues and problems that can affect vulnerable people like children and the elderly. Unlike wood products, our steel frame kits do not retain or contain moisture, removing the appearance of black mould.
Our steel frame kits won’t combust when exposed to naked flames or high temperatures. This reduces the chances of a fire feeding off of the property.
Functionality of our Spark Steel.
Optimised functionality delivering economical steel usage.
A completed truss layout is imported from Stock Steel into our Truss Engineering Software, where it performs 146 stress tests on each truss.
With optimised functionality, we produce a steel truss that’s economical in steel usage without compromising local engineering requirements.
Steel trusses can be engineered for non-cyclonic through to extreme cyclonic conditions in excess of 180 mph, with a maximum span of 35 metres.
Virtually any truss shape can be produced, including coffered ceilings, parallel cord trusses, curved trusses, dual pitched roof trusses, and much more.
