The general steps for building a metal-framed house are as follows:
-> Casting the foundation - the calculation of the foundation is the responsibility of the structural engineer. Depending on the nature of the soil, he designs the resistance project and determines both the materials to be used and the quantities needed for construction.
-> Production and assembly of the metal structure - the production of profiles is done automatically. The process is computer-monitored. All profiles are designed to fit perfectly. Delivery is made directly to the construction site and is accompanied by assembly drawings. The metal framework will be assembled based on the codes engraved on the structural elements.
-> External and internal cladding, and casting the slab between levels - in short, in this phase, the exterior of the building will be completed up to the stage of applying the decorative plaster. The slab between levels will be cast, cement-sand composition.
-> Interior finishes - in this construction stage, the interior walls will be filled with insulation material and then closed with the help of gypsum board. A primer and a white washable paint will be applied on all walls.
