Not so long ago, a new direction appeared on the domestic construction market - frame construction of houses for various purposes. The frame of the structure is made of shaped pipes or wooden beams, so the construction of such houses is very fast. In previous years, metal frame construction existed only in industrial sectors, metal frames were erected only during the construction of workshops, cold hangars and warehouse buildings or production facilities.
Today, the use of innovative technologies, metal processing methods and the use of new materials for insulation made it possible to use frame construction using shaped pipes for low-rise construction (no more than three floors) and the construction of cottages, shops, restaurants and cafes, gas stations, office and public buildings ... The advantages of metal-frame houses are their quick installation and low cost, since the direct main element of the frame is pipe GOST 9941-82 price which is quite democratic and available to any consumer.
It is very effective to use metal-frame technology in the reconstruction of buildings, erection of extensions to existing structures, superstructures, the construction of outbuildings or attics, since the frames are lightweight and do not heavily load existing foundations.
Experts also recommend using frames made of shaped pipes for the construction of small buildings - garages, greenhouses, free-standing sheds used for various purposes. Garden plots look great with gazebos and small terraces built in the same way.
Despite the visual "airiness" of houses built using a metal frame made of shaped pipes, they can have a rather complex structure in terms of plan. To create such a complex frame, you can use not only rectilinear shaped pipes, but also stainless steel bend GOST 17375 to create corner elements and complex transitions .
The foundation for such buildings is being erected shallow and simple, there is no need for the construction of heavy foundations, due to the low weight of the frame structures. In addition, structures such as small garages, greenhouse buildings and greenhouses can be erected using metal-frame technology without foundations (if soils and terrain allow).
The actual frame racks, made of shaped pipes, are additionally insulated using insulation such as strips or foam insulation mats. The roof of such buildings is mounted separately, also from a profile pipe, in addition, its structure can be part of the frame of the entire structure. The frame itself is calculated only on its own weight and load from snow, wind, so that in warm regions it can be mounted from light thin-walled pipes. The installation of the frame is carried out, starting with the installation of racks and columns, which are then fixed with horizontal crossbars using a special element - a clamp for connecting shaped pipes.
