Why Light Gauge Steel Framing is the Future of Construction

Elevating Construction Standards: The Critical Role of Proper Stacking and Packaging in Light Steel Frames

 

Light Gauge Steel (LGS) frames are revolutionizing construction in Australia, known for their durability, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability. Yet, the critical role of stacking and packaging in preserving these qualities often goes unnoticed. This article discusses the importance of these processes, highlighting NeoBuild Steel’s commitment to ensuring LGS frames maintain their integrity during transit.

 

The Fundamentals of Stacking and Packaging:

Beyond convenience, the process of stacking and packaging LGS frames is crucial for their structural stability and longevity. Improper handling can expose frames to damage and corrosion during transportation, affecting the precision in manufacturing and potentially compromising the structural integrity.

 

 

Key Considerations in Stacking:

 

  1. Alignment and Orientation: Proper alignment and orientation are vital. Misalignment can cause uneven weight distribution, leading to increased stress on certain points and risking the structural integrity of the frames.

  2. Securing for Transportation: It’s essential to secure frames with tiedowns to prevent movement. Inadequately secured frames can collide, causing damage.

 

The Significance of Efficient Stacking and Packaging:

Efficient stacking and packaging of LGS frames are key to cost efficiency, reducing the likelihood of damage and the need for repairs or replacements. This saves time and money for all involved. Moreover, ensuring structural integrity from the outset expedites construction and enhances safety, as well-packaged frames contribute to a safer working environment.
