MBS Steel Framing
At the heart of the Modular Buildings and Building Products manufactured by MBS is the superior steel framing system. Monarch Building Systems has experience in producing high quality steel wall frames dating back to 1979. Internal Research and Development of our design and manufacturing processes, allows us to supply High Tensile Zincalume® Coated Steel Wall Framing of superior design and manufacturing accuracy for application in the residential and light commercial building industry.
The necessary attributes of steel framing: accuracy of size, straightness, true and square are vital. MBS wall framing incorporates swaging of junction members to maintain a flat base for wall sheeting. Roof framing typically incorporates a ceiling diaphragm frame to minimize cracking of ceilings.
Monarch Building Systems has had extensive experience in design, manufacture and installation of light steel framing into residential construction including multi-storey townhouses and home units. Other classes of buildings supplied with framing include offices, prisons, hospitals, and research buildings. For buildings with a standard range of dimensions, MBS have undertaken comprehensive frame engineering design and performance criteria by both testing and calculation. This frame design engineering led to the issue of a "National Certificate Registration of a Building Product", by the CSIRO on 15th March, 1995, covering specific loadings arising from wind, including cyclonic wind intensities.
For building designs which fall within standard parameters, detailed design is carried out using proprietary software, which integrates designing and manufacturing control by means of CAD-CAM. For specialised framing, AutoCAD drawing is used to detail components and buildings are certified by third party consultants.
It is becoming increasingly more common to vote for Steel Framed Construction because:
• It is consistent in quality,
• The measurements are always exact,
• It is light weight,
• It can be made into infinitely variable lengths,
• It can be pre-fabricated in a factory setting
• And it never attracts those dreaded termites!
