Light Gauge Steel Framing Market

Light Gauge Steel Framing - Market Overview

Light gauge steel framing is very similar to wood framed construction in principle. In steel construction the wooden framing members are replaced with thin steel sections. The steel sections used here are called cold formed sections. Cold formed steel is shaped by guiding thin sheets of steel through a series of rollers, each roller changing the shape very slightly, with the net result of converting a flat sheet of steel into a C or S-shaped section.

The steel used here are zinc coated or zinc or aluminum coated to protect it from corrosion. The thickness of this coating can be varied to suit a range of environments. In the last few years, the light gauge market has gained popularity among SMEs, due to their multiple advantages.
