4 LIGHT STEEL CONSTRUCTION The introduction of light steel frame building in South Africa is one of the most exciting developments in recent times in both the steel and construction industries. Perfected over the last half century, steel frame construction has become the preferred way of building in many countries, including the United States, Canada, Britain, Australia and New Zealand. It was only fairly recently introduced to our shores and is now growing at an astounding rate of 25% annually in South Africa. Compared to traditional building methods, light steel frame construction offers the opportunity to errect structures (from residential and commercial, to industrial and institutional) of a higher quality and with less wastage. It is quicker, more cost-effective and more precise than any other building method. The material is fully customizable to the client s requirements and the architectural style. Steel is a superior building material with the future in mind. Apart from allowing green construction practices, building with light steel frames is faster, predictable, more precise and more cost-effective. 6 FUTURECON

9 FUTUREHOUSE ECO PANELS INFORMATION ON FUTUREHOUSE Ikhaya Futurehouse s thermally insulating, wall and slab building panels are not only great for the environment, but extremely easy to use. It makes buildings more sustainable due to its insulating properties, for example less heating and cooling. It keeps cool in the summer, but warm in the winter. Our thermally insulated wall panel has very little maintenance costs but has the look of concrete. Yet it is cost competitive with brick and mortar. MATERIALS OF THE FUTURE With new SANS 204 and XA legislation, South Africans will be forced to meet certain energy efficiency and environmental requirements. The IFHS building system is fully compliant with this new legislation. All Futurehouse materials are sourced in South Africa and our manufacturing is done entirely in South Africa. ECO FRIENDLY Eco Friendly, sustainable, saving building time, saving energy expenditure and making buildings more comfortable to live in. COMPLETE SOLUTIONS We offer a complete range of products and services that complement our walling system. Products that include under floor insulation, suspended floor and roof slabs, insulated ceilings and plastering and finishing systems as well as double-glazed window and door systems. Services include on-site training, engineering and construction consultancy. 16 FUTURECON

12 ETICS ETICS is a system comprising of roll-formed steel profile sections fixed together as per structural engineer s design, an internal lining consisting of 1 2 layers of a 15 mm Gyproc RhinoBoard (as per fire rating requirements) fixed to the steel frame work and finished as desired. The external lining consists of a moisture barrier membrane (ISOVER Ecran Integra. membrane ) which is fixed to the steel frame work. A sheath wall comprising of 12.5 mm Gyproc Glasroc H Board/OSB is then fixed to the frame work. Insulation boards (Neopor or EPS panels to a density not less than 20 kg/ m2) are adhered to the Glasroc H Board/OSB sheath wall using Weber.set Ceramic L adhesive and mechanical fixings as specified by Weber. A suitable primer is applied to the wall and finally an acrylic resin bonded decorative topcoat as specified by Weber. A sealant is then used to seal the system to ensure water tightness. 22 FUTURECON
