What is light gauge steel homes
Light gauge steel homes, also known as light steel villa, is one of the main types of prefabricated buildings. The skeleton of this light steel structure house mainly formed by C-shaped cold-forming light steel keel. It plays a reasonable bearing capacity with precise calculation and auxiliary parts combination. Besides, the overall shape of light steel houses can be diversified to meet the needs of different customers. It can be totally replace the traditional brick and concrete houses.

Highlights of BUWO light steel homes
feature 1: Seismic resistance
The light steel prefab house has a good seismic performance. Due to the light weight of light steel structure building, the metal material character and the necessary shear wall structure form make the structure have an inherent seismic performance, stable, and safe.
The light steel building won’t collapse even if the seismic intensity reaches to 9 class.
Feature 2: Windproof
The light steel keel is closely connected with the foundation through expansion bolts and anti-punching accessories. The wind load resistance can reach to 12 typhoon
Feature 3: Sound insulation of light steel villa
A: Wall sound insulation ≥45db;
B: Floor impact sound pressure ≤70db Thermal insulation
The thickness of external wall and roof insulation layer can be changed arbitrarily according to the requirements of global climate zone.
Feature 4: heat insulation of light steel villa
Through the combination of heat insulation glass fiber wool and various maintenance plates, the heat insulation of the light steel house can be three or four times that of brick and concrete houses.
Feature 5: Environmental friendliness of light steel villa
With the enhancement of people’s awareness of environmental protection, whether the construction process will cause environmental pollution and noise pollution to the surrounding areas has also attracted much attention.
When assembling on site, materials of the light steel house such as steel, wood, and plastic, etc., can be recycled and reused 80%-90%. And most of the works are dry construction, green and environmental protection.
Feature 6: Less cost & long lifespan
For the construction of light steel buildings, all the components of the light steel house are prefabricated in factory in advance. Then delivered to the site for installation. It helps to greatly shorten the construction period and reduce labor costs.
Besides, the light steel villa is a permanent building. The service life of the light steel house is more than 50 years.
