THE STEEL ADVANTAGE

STEEL COILS.png

Strength & Stability

  • High strength-to-weight ratio delivers superior load-bearing capacity.

  • Components are dimensionally stable — no shrinking, twisting, or bowing.

  • Consistent quality since steel is manufactured, not grown.

  • Performs exceptionally under seismic, wind, and snow load conditions.

Fire Resistance & Safety

  • Steel is non-combustible and does not contribute fuel to a fire.

  • Slows or stops fire spread between walls and floors.

  • Increases safety ratings for residential and commercial builds.

  • Reduced insurance premiums by more than 40%.

Speed of Construction

  • CNC roll-forming produces ready-to-install components.

  • Pre-cut and labeled framing reduces on-site measuring and cutting.

  • Smaller crews can assemble frames quickly with minimal training.

  • Projects finish faster, lowering overhead and carrying costs.

Design Flexibility

  • Allows for long spans and open layouts without heavy beams.

  • Compatible with wood, hot-rolled steel, and concrete in hybrid builds.

  • Enables architectural freedom for custom shapes and designs.

  • Easily integrates with BIM software for precision planning.

Durability & Longevity

  • Galvanized coatings protect against rust and corrosion.

  • Resistant to termites, carpenter ants, and rodents.

  • Steel won’t absorb moisture, preventing rot and decay.

  • Longer service life reduces the need for repairs or replacements.

Sustainability

  • 100% recyclable at the end of a building’s life cycle.

  • Scrap produced in manufacturing is re-melted and reused.

  • Less on-site waste compared to wood framing.

  • Supports green building certifications like LEED.

Energy Efficiency & Comfort

  • Perfectly true building envelope creates airtight, efficient structures.

  • Works seamlessly with advanced insulation systems.

  • Reduces thermal bridging with proper detailing.

  • Contributes to lower heating and cooling costs.

Cost Predictability

  • Steel prices are more stable than lumber markets.

  • CNC precision minimizes material waste and error.

  • Shorter build times reduce labor expenses.

  • Lower lifetime maintenance costs for owners.

The Smarter Choice — Build for Tomorrow, Today

  • Future-ready homes – LGS buildings are engineered for resilience, efficiency, and sustainability — not just for today, but for decades ahead.

  • Confidence in quality – Say goodbye to warped walls, termites, and fire risks. What you build is what will last.

  • Stronger resale and reputation – Homes and projects built with steel stand out in the market as modern, durable, and eco-conscious.

  • Join the movement – More builders and homeowners are making the switch every day. Choosing LGS means being part of the shift to smarter, cleaner, faster construction.
