lightweight steel frame design

Roof frame is a structure that supports buildings or dwellings, a frame that makes it stable, and also connects and stabilizes the bottom of the building (foundation). Old houses usually lack proportional roof frames. Traditional house walls which are usually made of clay, bricks, or stones also function as a buffer for the roof, as well as a cover and room divider. Whereas historic old buildings in our city that are terraced and high-ceilinged are usually equipped with wooden frame structures. After the industrial and steel revolution became popular, the wooden roof frame was replaced by an iron roof frame. The consideration is that the iron roof frame is more durable and more fire resistant.

At present, both wood and iron materials have progressed in quality. Durable is no longer an excuse to choose a frame from a particular material. The trend of interior design and the resulting effect becomes more value for the iron roof frame, both in terms of technical and aesthetic.

Both wood and steel materials have disadvantages because of the need for concrete structures to install the roof truss of these two materials. Iron roof frames save more space than concrete structures, and this can overcome the problem of limited space in today's homes.
