Steel frames are ideal for multi-storey buildings due to their high strength-to-weight ratio and structural reliability. They can support significant loads while remaining lightweight, which reduces the need for extensive foundations. Steel’s durability ensures that it maintains its integrity over time, even under the stresses of a multi-storey structure. Prefabrication allows for precise engineering, making steel frames easy to assemble on-site and reducing construction time. Their compatibility with modern design software enables architects to create complex and innovative layouts for multi-storey projects. Additionally, steel frames comply with Australian building standards for safety and performance, making them a trusted choice for high-rise construction.

Steel frames are low maintenance due to their durability and resistance to common issues like termites, rot, and fire. Protective coatings, such as galvanisation, further enhance their longevity by preventing corrosion. Routine inspections are recommended to ensure the protective coating remains intact, especially in coastal or industrial areas where environmental conditions may be harsher. Cleaning steel frames occasionally to remove debris or corrosive residues can also extend their lifespan. Unlike timber, steel does not require treatments for pests or weatherproofing. Overall, the minimal maintenance required for steel frames makes them a cost-effective and hassle-free choice for builders and homeowners.

Prefabricated steel frames are manufactured using advanced machinery and precise engineering processes. Design software is used to create detailed specifications, ensuring the frames meet project requirements. Steel sheets are cut, shaped, and drilled using automated roll-formers, producing components with exceptional accuracy. These components are often labelled with markings to simplify on-site assembly. The prefabrication process takes place in a controlled factory environment, ensuring consistency in quality and reducing construction errors. Once completed, the steel frames are transported to the building site, ready for quick installation. This process not only saves time but also minimises waste and labour costs, enhancing overall project efficiency.
