APPLICATION
LSF for the compatible volumes, hybrid construction for the areas that demand it
Factory offices, welfare buildings, small workshops, technical annexes, light production units and storage buildings can be engineered in LSF where the loads, spans, equipment and operating conditions remain compatible with the system selected.
DEFINING THE RIGHT SCOPE
Read the building by area and by applied action
Volumes often compatible, subject to study
- integrated offices and administrative premises
- changing rooms, canteens and welfare premises
- small workshops and light production units
- low-rise technical buildings
- storage where spans and loads remain suitable
Data that may govern the solution
- machinery, point loads and vibration
- large doors, openings or clear spans
- clear height and suspended loads
- fire, evacuation and occupancy
- humidity, dust, atmosphere and corrosion risk
- building services, maintenance and future change
Elements that may call for a hybrid solution
- concrete slab and foundations
- portal frames or beams in heavier structural steel
- heavily loaded equipment areas
- long-span volumes
- LSF retained on the compatible areas, façades or storeys
A good project does not try to impose a single system on the whole building. It assigns each solution to the area where it is relevant.
The value comes from preparation, not from a generic promise of speed
Once the brief has been settled, panels, openings, service holes and identification marks can be coordinated before manufacturing. This preparation makes it easier to repeat components, sequence deliveries and read the erection process, but it depends on sufficiently precise input data.
Coordinated openings
Doors, openings, technical access points and service routes are incorporated before the components concerned are released.
Repetitive components
Grids, panels and recurring details can be reused once approved.
Identification by area
Components can be organised by building, storey or erection phase.
Prepared interfaces
Equipment, façades, building services and heavy works are coordinated with the compatible frame.
From frame to building, according to the contract
Structure Kit
For an organisation that keeps the assembly of sections and panels local.
Panel Kit
To reduce structural assembly on site through pre-assembled panels and trusses.
Custom building project
To bring a broader scope around the frame, with the partners and interfaces the project requires.
PREPARING THE STUDY
The data that makes it possible to define the compatible areas
Send the drawings or the brief, the activity, the location, the floor areas, the heights, the spans, the known loads and equipment, the large openings, the building services required, the ambient conditions, the planned slab and foundations, and the scope you are looking for.
