advantages

1. High utilization rate of overall space
(1) Light steel is light steel with light weight, which reduces the load-bearing burden of the building itself, which has certain benefits to a certain extent.
(2) That is, when building walls, the thinner the walls are, the more space can be used. Therefore, building a light steel villa has an advantage, that is, the overall space utilization rate is high. It is reported that its space utilization rate is as high as 90%.
2. Excellent wind and earthquake resistance
(1) Light steel villas are steel-structured houses. During the construction process, the plate-rib structure used can disperse the load concentrated in the local part of the house and produce a skin effect.
(2) In other words, it has strong earthquake and wind resistance. In principle, light steel villas can achieve 9-level earthquake resistance and 12-level wind resistance, and living safety is relatively guaranteed.
3. The building structure is not restricted by geographical location
(1) Generally speaking, most house builders like to build houses in flat areas with high soil density, but the homestead is limited and some areas are restricted by geographical location.
There will be some poor residential land, but the homeowners have to build houses, so traditional structure houses built on such foundations need to be reinforced to avoid affecting living safety.
(2) However, the construction of light steel villas is not restricted by geographical location and does not require special treatment, which can save construction costs to a certain extent.
4. Light steel villas have artistic appreciation
(1) Comparing the appearance and material construction of traditional structure houses and light steel villas, it is not difficult to see the special characteristics of light steel villas.
It has a certain artistic appreciation and can meet the personalized needs of residents. Especially on the roof or terrace, due to the light weight of the light steel structure, light steel can achieve more types of shapes, which can better meet the "personalized" needs of today's rural areas.
(2) Moreover, when designing the interior, unlike traditional structure houses, which are more restricted, the interior of the light steel villa can be flexibly designed.
5. Short construction period
(1) Building a light steel villa is like building blocks, combining parts, and the construction materials are light in weight. Most of them are prefabricated parts, which are easy to transport and build quickly and easily, saving a lot of construction time compared to traditional structure houses. (Generally, the main frame can be completed in 15-20 days)
(2) This can also save residents some of the construction costs, reduce the labor costs of workers, and allow you to spend more money on building materials.
6. Recyclable
(1) During the construction process, light steel villas do not require wet operations like traditional structure houses. The building materials used are environmentally friendly and most of them are renewable resources, so light steel villas are also environmentally friendly.
(2) The materials used in light steel villas can be recycled. It is reported that 100% of the main materials can be recycled and 80% of the other materials can be recycled.

advantages

1. The cost is slightly expensive
(1) Compared with the cost of traditional structures, the cost per square meter of light steel villas is more expensive, 300-500 per square meter more expensive. If there are additional sound insulation and styling requirements, this gap will be further widened.
2. The number of floors of the building is limited
Light steel has a light weight, which is a major advantage, but it is also a double-edged sword. Its bearing capacity is limited. Its bearing capacity is generally suitable for low-rise buildings (up to 6 floors). To build high-rise houses above 6 floors, it is necessary to combine light and heavy steel.
3. A professional construction team is required
If a traditional structure house is built in the countryside, there will always be a few construction workers in the nearby village or the village itself, which is very convenient. However, the construction of light steel villas is different. It requires skilled technicians and a professional construction team. In fact, this also avoids the traditional, unprofessional construction team from building unqualified houses.
