Public infrastructure

Framing made from TRUECORE® steel is providing the structural integrity for public infrastructure, from impressive performing arts centres to state-of-the-art railway stations.

The versatility of a prefabricated light gauge steel (LGS) framing solution made from TRUECORE® steel helped this time-critical project, with its complex, multi-dimensional facade, stay on track during construction.

Why project teams are choosing TRUECORE® steel

Prefabricated structural framing made from light gauge TRUECORE® steel provides the design flexibility and strength-to-weight ratio that allows project teams to deliver efficient and stunning results.

3D design and engineering software integrated with fabrication machinery

Designs can be previewed in 3D to ensure the architect’s vision is perfectly realised while fully engineered structural and facade solutions can be prototyped and tested prior to prefabrication. Thorough detailing during the design phase can achieve exact tolerances for the smooth installation of panels and modules on-site, thereby minimising public disruption.

Easy handling and reduced on-site steel waste

Prefabricated and precision engineered, the high strength-to-weight ratio of framing modules made from TRUECORE® steel makes it easier to manage on-site while also reducing waste. Additionally, TRUECORE® steel achieves a Responsible Product Value of 21 in the Green Building Council of Australia’s Responsible Products Score Checker.

Framing made from TRUECORE® steel provides design flexibility

Our passion is using our knowledge and experience to create innovative framing solutions that solve complex design challenges, and see those buildings come to life in finished form.”
