Durability for light gauge low-rise steel framing NASH_HB_RLRSF

This extract explains the basic concepts and principles of durability design for light gauge low-rise steel framing.  Using good practice and familiar tools, materials and methods, steel framing made from metallic coated steels can be adapted to meet a wide variety of design challenges. In the majority of construction environments, steel can be expected to perform its structural function almost indefinitely provided it is protected from specific and well understood hazards. The full chapter provides guidance on how to protect the integrity of the steel frame before, during and after construction. Extract from NASH Handbook - Design of Residential and Low-rise Steel Framing, July 2009.
