Lightweight Steel Building Systems

ILA have been involved with Metek Building Systems light weight steel building systems since October 2004, in this short time we have assisted in the delivery of a number of high profile projects with many more currently at design stage. We have also contributed to R&D work as part of the Metek SGF team. This new and exciting light weight steel and concrete floor solution was launched in June 2005, providing a new unique fast track cassette flooring solution.

Metek systems are suitable for various market sectors. In multi – storey developments, MBS light steel framing creates a rapid dry envelope to support both external cladding and internal plasterboard. The use of Metek’s ‘Warm Frame’ system enables high acoustic and thermal values to be achieved, far exceeding current building regulations.

Within a steel or concrete frame structure, other forms of infill cassette panels are worth consideration. Forticrete Block and Ibstock Brick have joined forces to form a new company, FI Permafast Systems.

This new venture has developed and launched the Permafast factory built pre-assembled panel system. The Permafast system is a lightweight steel frame system which provides the advantages of genuine masonry wall finishes in a timescale not possible by traditional methods. Permafast is a just in time solution to creating broad expanses of high quality masonry with no special skills, no wet trades and no waste.
