About the Technology

Light Gauge Steel Framed Structures (LGSF) is based on factory made galvanized light gauge steel components, designed as per codal requirements. The system is produced by cold forming method and assembled as panels at site forming structural steel framework of a building of varying sizes of wall and floor. The assembly is done using special types of screws and bolts. LGSF is a well-established technology for residential construction in North America, Australia and Japan and is gaining ground in India. LGSF is typically ideal for one to three storey high buildings, especially for residential and commercial buildings. Due to its flexibility, fast construction and durability, this technology has great potential for counties like India. LGSF can be combined with composite steel / concrete deck resting on light steel framing stud walls.

Technology being used:

Foundation Walling Floor Slabs/Roofing
  • Isolated RCC column footing with Plinth beam
  • Light Gauge Steel Framework System (LGSFS) with Cement Fiber board on both side of walls and infill of rock wool.
  • Light Gauge Steel roof truss with MS deck sheeting resting on web joist and concrete screed with false ceiling of gypsum board.

Joinery & Finishing:

Door frame/shutters Window Fame/ Shutter Flooring Wall Finishes
  • Pressed steel door frame with flush shutters
  • PVC door frame with PVC Shutters in toilets
  • uPVC frame with glazed panel and wire mesh shutters.
  • Vitrified tile flooring in Rooms & Kitchen
  • Anti-skid ceramic tiles in bath & WC
  • Anti skid tiles Flooring in Common area.
  • Granite stone on Staircase steps.
  • Weather Proof Acrylic Emulsion paint on external walls
  • Oil Bound distemper over POP on internal walls


The project is being technically evaluated by Punjab Engineering College, Chandigarh.
