Steel Portal Frame House

Introduction

 

Steel portal frame houses have become increasingly popular in recent years, thanks to a variety of advantages they offer over traditional construction methods.Steel portal frame houses offer a cost-effective, durable, and energy-efficient construction option that is becoming increasingly popular with homeowners. Site preparation, aesthetics, thermal bridging, and noise insulation should all be considered before deciding on this method of construction.

2. Assembling

Use H Beam Assembling Machine

 

3. Submerged arc welding

Use H-Beam Welding Machine

 

4. Straightening

Use Vertical Straightening Machine

 

5. Welding

Use Carbon Dioxide arc welding

 

6. Ultrasonic flaw detection

 

7. Shot blasting

Use H sectiong steel shot blasting derusing machine

 

8. Painting

Use High-pressure airless spraying

 

Advantages:

1. Durability: Steel frames are incredibly strong and can withstand extreme weather conditions, making them an excellent choice for homes in areas prone to natural disasters.

2. Cost-effective: Steel portal frame houses can be built at a much lower cost than traditional homes with brick and mortar construction. This is because steel frames are lightweight, easy to assemble and require less labor.

3. Energy-efficient: Steel frames are an excellent insulation material and can significantly reduce your energy bills.

4. Faster construction: Steel frames can be pre-engineered to your exact specifications and delivered to the construction site ready for assembly. This speeds up the construction process, reducing overall project timelines.

5. Versatility: Steel frames are highly adaptable and can accommodate a wide range of architectural styles, from modern to traditional.

9. Mezzanine or not? And usage:

 

Our Factory

 

In less than a decade, LUTUO has established a production base spanning across 70,000 ㎡ and has expanded its business scope to include various types of structure warehouses such as steel warehouse buildings, multi-story buildings, industrial residential buildings, steel frame prefab homes, container houses, frame structures for large equipment, and more. Additionally, LUTUO specializes in the construction of multi-story Light Gauge Steel Frame Houses, mobile portable container houses, and prefabricated expandable container houses. The company has also been recognized for its commitment to quality, having obtained ISO9001:2000 International Quality System Certification.

 

 

Overseas Cases

The Philippines portal frame warehouse: size: 30mx20mx6m

 

 

Packaging & Shipping

 

We use steel pallet to package, it is easy to load and unload! All the material are to be packed into the loading pallet, and use 40ft HQ shipping container for loading.

 

 

Considerations

1. Site preparation: Steel frames require a level and compact foundation to ensure stability. This means that site preparation must be done correctly, which can add to the overall cost of construction.

2. Aesthetics: While steel frames are versatile, some homeowners may prefer the look and feel of traditional brick and mortar constructions. This is a matter of personal preference and should be considered when deciding on the construction method.

3. Thermal bridging: Steel frames can create thermal bridging, which can lead to energy losses. Proper insulation and sealing are required to overcome this issue.

4. Noise insulation: Steel frames are not as effective at reducing sound transmission as traditional constructions. This can be addressed through additional insulation materials and sound-absorbing surfaces.
