Local Queensland businesses are turning to house framing made from TRUECORE® steel due to its excellent spanning capabilities for large scale homes.
Barry Marshall Builders, along with Slacks Creek based Steeline Metal Framing Systems, are using house framing made from TRUECORE® steel frame for their latest $3.5 million prestige home built in Bridgeman Downs.
At Bridgeman Downs, a frame was needed to ensure the structure of the home was sound while also supporting the special decorative features including the long roof span, wide plaster cornicing and high ceilings. The home consists of five bedrooms, four bathrooms, television room, rumpus, study, dining, living, family room, laundry and upstairs viewing room. The frame made from TRUECORE® steel offered the strength and durability needed to support the additional weight and span in the design without comprising the prestige aesthetic.
Mike Butler, Area Manager of Steeline Metal Framing Systems, says the steel frame offers prestige home owners versatility, durability and strength: "When a prestige home demands a versatile frame to support the aesthetic features, a frame made from TRUECORE® steel guarantees a light weight framing option without comprising on strength and durability", he said.
Mark Eckermann, Residential Market Manager for BlueScope Steel, says framing made from TRUECORE® steel offers prestige structural integrity to home owners. He said: "Steel building frames made from TRUECORE® steel will be straight and true so they won't warp, twist, sag or shrink, and internal walls stay perfectly straight."
Home owners can rest assured that the structural integrity of their house will not be affected or damaged by a termite or borer attack as framing made from TRUECORE® steel is 100 per cent termite proof.
