Light steel villas are very popular among self built homeowners nowadays, and are also a type of housing construction that is often discussed by many homeowners. However, when it comes to what materials are used in light steel villas, I believe most homeowners are not familiar with this. Below, the editor of Shenzhen Jima Light Steel Villa will introduce what materials are used in light steel villas and the quality of the houses.

　　1、 Building materials for light steel villas

　　To analyze the materials of light steel villas, we need to start with the architectural structure of light steel villas. Light steel villas have light steel frame structure, wall structure, floor structure, and roof structure, and the materials of some components used in different structures are also different.

　　What materials are used for light steel villas? How is the quality of the house? (Figure 1)

　　1.1 Lightweight steel frame structure

　　The so-called light steel frame structure is what we call a light steel keel structure, which is a high-strength light steel structure composed of hot-dip galvanized steel strips and cold bending technology. It is the main structure for building light steel villas, and all steel structure materials are treated with anti-corrosion and rust prevention, which can effectively ensure the durability of the light steel structure.

　　1.2 Wall structure

　　The wall structure of a light steel villa is composed of four materials, namely external wall panels, internal wall panels, insulation materials, and partition panels. Of course, the walls are also equipped with one-way breathing paper. The best performance feature of this type of wall is good insulation, moisture resistance, and breathability.

　　1.3 Floor structure

　　The floor structure of the light steel villa is lightweight, high-strength, and also has the effect of an air sound insulation layer. In the overall house of the light steel villa, a certain degree of noise reduction and sound insulation effect is also adopted. This comprehensive sound insulation measure has the same effect as the sound insulation effect of a five-star hotel.

　　1.4 Roof structure

　　The roof structure of light steel villas is the same as the wall structure, using the design principle of wall panels, which is why light steel villas have many properties such as thermal insulation, moisture resistance, breathability, waterproofing, noise reduction, and sound insulation. Of course, the roof structure of light steel villas is different from that of traditional mixed brick houses. The roof structure of traditional mixed brick houses is subject to certain restrictions, resulting in a very single style. However, the roof structure of light steel villas has many design shapes, which can be designed differently according to the owner's own preferences.

　　2、 How is the quality of light steel villa houses?

　　The quality of light steel villas can be observed from two aspects: resistance to natural disasters and the lifespan of the house:

　　2.1 Ability to resist natural disasters

　　Light steel villas have excellent overall safety and stability due to their light weight, high toughness, and cage structure. Scientific experimental research has shown that the strength of light steel villas in resisting natural disasters is very high, and they can withstand earthquakes below level 9 and typhoons below level 14. Moreover, in the face of such a strong disaster, the damage to the light steel villa itself is also very small.

　　2.2 Service life

　　The service life of light steel villas far exceeds that of traditional mixed brick houses. Due to the difference in overall structure and building materials, the service life of light steel villas far exceeds that of all current house buildings. The service life of light steel villas can reach up to 300 years, and the internal structure of light steel villas can also be recycled and reused when the house is not in use.

　　In summary, light steel villas are outstanding in the construction industry in terms of building materials and quality, and are the best preferred target for self built houses.
