Britframe Systems Steel Framing Systems (RTU’s)
Key Facts and Benefits
❖
Swaging of the vertical studs allows for a flush finish wall profile which facilitates fixing of
boarding or linings.
❖
The bottom corners of the studs are trimmed prior to folding the section to allow the stud to sit
directly onto the face of the bottom track thus giving direct transfer of vertical load rather than
through the fixings
❖
Window and door openings are easily accommodated
❖
Bracing formed from the stud section can be incorporated within the wall structure, which is
strong both in tension and compression therefore eliminating the need for external cross
bracing.
❖
Britframe Systems have the ability and capacity to supply systems in either stick form or fully
assembled panels
❖
The steel gauges are core steel thickness plus the standard (Z275) zinc coating thickness of
0.04mm.
❖
Sections are generally manufactured from the grade S450 steel with a minimum yield strength
of 450N/mm² (2mm from lesser yield)
❖
Britframe Systems Framing offers increased stability and durability
