Suscon Construction Solutions has been supplying an extensive range of professionally crafted steel products since 2014. The company's product range is constantly expanding to meet a variety of construction needs. Light steel frame (LSF) is the core of Suscon Construction Solutions preferred building methodology as well as the main component of their specialist roofing system.
This company fabricates all the LSF components at its production facility in Lusaka or at the project location provided the project is big enough. Suscon Construction Solutions fabricate for its own consumption, for agents, contractors and for any other third party who wishes to make use of their products.
LSF is a tried and tested building material which has been used in many parts of the world for over 30 years. The versatility of LSF means that it is suitable for use in many applications. In conjunction with other materials a wide range of prefabricated and client tailored offerings is possible.
Typically, a building or structure design is recreated or designed in 3D on our specialised engineering software. Once the design passes the engineering and structural requirements it is fabricated. Some of their clients provide them with their own designs for fabrication.
The LSF is made from slit coil that is hot dip galvanised, zinc coated or 55% zinc aluminium alloy coated. It comes in the following thicknesses 0.58 mm, 0.80 mm and 1.00 mm. Suscon Construction Solutions core profile has an overall dimension of 90 x 37 mm, it is often mistaken for aluminium.
Production tolerances of 1 mm over 15 m mean that structures built from LSF are factory accurate. The lightweight nature of the LSF also means that no or limited heavy lifting equipment is required when assembling on site, fast error free construction is now possible. The material and lightweight nature of LSF lends itself to creating an industry that is more inclusive of women. Training in the use and installation of LSF is simple and community employment schemes on large projects are more than ever a reality.
