Frame construction is a relatively new trend in the Russian market. The rapid construction of a house frame from a profile pipe or wooden beams makes this technology of housing construction and small architectural forms popular.

A profile pipe has its own advantages and application features, and frame-type structures have many advantages.

Brief information about frame construction

At the first stages of development, metal frame construction was used only in the construction of industrial buildings. Workshops, warehouses and hangars were erected on frames made of a profile pipe or channel.

In the process of technology evolution, it became possible to use a frame from a professional pipe for the construction of the following facilities:

  • Low-rise residential premises (construction of no more than 3 floors is allowed).
  • Cottages.
  • Buildings for commercial use (shop, cafe, gas station, office space).
  • Public buildings.


The main advantages of houses on a metal frame

The technology of building houses based on metal frames is used all over the world. This technology is most widely used in the USA, Japan and Western Europe. Residential buildings in these countries, built using frame technology, occupy an average of about 60%, and such construction continues to grow.

Frame houses have the following advantages:

  • Low cost. Compared to buildings that were built using traditional technology, frame houses do not require large expenditures. However, it is worth remembering that a frame made of wooden beams will cost less than a similar structure made of a profile pipe. Also, the cost of metal elements for the frame depends on the cross section of the pipe.
  • Quick erection. Residential buildings using frame technology are being built faster than with traditional construction. Using a profile pipe as the main material for the frame, it is possible to reduce the construction time by several times.
  • Exclusion of wet processes. The frame of the house from a profile pipe allows you to build houses all year round in any weather. The only exception is the arrangement of the foundation. Although, you can make a do-it-yourself columnar foundation from plastic pipes, which is very practical.
  • No shrinkage. Frame houses do not require time for shrinkage either during construction processes or during the operation of the building.
  • Low labor costs. You can build a house frame from a profile pipe with your own hands. To build a house using frame technology, you will need the services of just a few assistants. At the same time, it is possible to complete the main construction of the house within one month. All that's left is the interior decoration. At the same time, traditional construction under such conditions is simply impossible.

Along with many positive characteristics, frame structures also have disadvantages. The main disadvantage of the technology by which a house is being built from a professional pipe can be called a complex design. To correctly calculate the load on the profile pipe in a certain place at home, you will need the help of a professional. Only he can accurately calculate the weight that the profile pipe can withstand.


It is also difficult to independently choose the cross section and thickness of the material and calculate the size of the profile pipe. It is worth considering that the calculation of wooden beams is much easier.

Not to mention the problems with thermal insulation. Being a kind of bridge of cold, the metal frame requires better insulation. And this inevitably leads to additional costs.

The technology of building a metal frame house

The seeming simplicity of a house on a metal frame is just an illusion. In fact, the design of such buildings is quite complicated. Its main elements can be called:

  • Foundation of the house. Lightweight foundation types can be used, but this part cannot be neglected. The base is not required for transportable buildings, which include greenhouses or greenhouses. In this case, the calculation of the profile pipe is carried out with appropriate adjustments.
  • Metal carcass. For the construction of this part of the building, a profile pipe is suitable, having a square section of 10 * 10 cm or 6 * 6 cm. You can determine the required dimensions of the pipe using the profile pipe calculator, taking the dimensions of the house under construction.
  • Wall cladding inside the house. The best option for interior decoration is a grooved board 4-6 cm wide from coniferous trees. The material must necessarily be treated with antiseptic compounds and solutions that prevent fire.
  • Draft floor and its finishing. The logs are laid from a similar profile pipe, a draft floor of boards is laid on top of them and covered with any profile coating.
  • insulation. The most popular material for insulating a frame house is extruded polystyrene foam 6-10 cm thick. Penoizol strips can be used for additional insulation of the frame from a profile pipe.
  • Finishing the exterior of the house. To perform finishing work outside the building, facade plaster or siding can be used. With a sufficient construction budget, the possibility of finishing the house with natural wood is not excluded.
  • Roof. The roof frame of their profile pipe can be erected as a separate structure or as one of the frame elements. Depending on the roofing material and the installation angle of the roof rafters, the pipe parameters are calculated. The lighter the roofing material and the greater the angle between the rafters, the more current pipe can be used.

Stages of building a frame house

Do-it-yourself houses from a profile pipe are built in a certain sequence:

  • Foundation. For the construction of frame houses, you can use a solid concrete frame base, as well as a non-capital one, for example, on screw piles. Houses on the second type of base can be transported, as they are transportable.
  • Frame installation. At this stage, the use of ready-made frames of factory production is allowed. To assemble such frames, welding is not required, all elements are connected with screws. Independent construction of a frame from a profile pipe is not excluded. At the same time, it is important not only to monitor the relative position of the elements, but also to control the quality of the connections. It is these places that are considered the weakest point in the construction of frame houses from a profile pipe. Installation work must be carried out from the bottom up. At the same time, racks and columns are installed first, for the connection of which horizontal elements from tubes of a smaller section are used. To strengthen the vertical elements, braces are used.
  • Roof installation. The roofing part is mounted at the very last stage of the main construction. At the same time, the team of builders can be divided into two parts: one is engaged in roofing, the other moves on to insulation and finishing.
  • After finishing the installation of the frame, you can proceed to the interior decoration.


According to experts in the field of architecture, metal frame technologies will take a leading position in the future. This means that building a frame house from a profile pipe with your own hands allows you to gain certain skills that can be useful not only for personal purposes, but also as an additional specialty.

Low-rise metal frame houses are popular all over the world. According to statistics, housing construction on a metal profile frame occupies 80% of all buildings. The main consumer regions of this technology are Scandinavia, USA, Canada.

Such houses have many advantages compared to capital buildings and houses built on a wooden frame.

Distinctive features of metal frame houses:

  • strength;
  • durability;
  • short terms of construction of buildings;
  • inertness to weather and climatic conditions;
  • low cost;
  • resistance to heat loss;
  • high fire safety;
  • seismic resistance;
  • environmental friendliness;
  • freedom in the choice of architectural solutions;
  • non-shrink technology.

The iron frame, its elements are light steel thin-walled structures, consists of galvanized profiles and thermal profiles, fastening tapes and plates for assembling the frame, various types of corners. They are not subject to decay, withstand temperature extremes, precipitation, and are resistant to the elements. A steel profile can serve as the basis of a structure without damage for more than 100 years.

It is possible to build a building on a LSTK frame within a month. The details of the base of the building are lightweight, which eliminates the use of hoists and cranes. The fastening of the frame parts is carried out using threaded connections. These include: self-drilling or tapping screws, bolted connections.

Features of houses on a metal frame


Frame housing construction is not tied to the climate in the region. The metal frame for the house can be assembled in any climatic zone, the main condition for weather conditions is comfort for the workers performing the installation.

The emergence and development of the technology for the construction of residential buildings on metal frames is caused by the need for the rapid construction of low-rise buildings from materials cheaper than wood and the ability to establish industrial production of frame parts.

The final cost of a frame house made of a metal profile and sandwich panels is much lower than the construction of bricks, gas blocks, wood and ceramic blocks.


High thermal insulation characteristics of structures are provided by high-quality insulation. Heating such buildings is much easier and more economical. The heat transfer resistance of a frame wall 25 cm thick is equal to that of masonry 1.5 m thick.

Sandwich panels used in frame construction use mineral wool insulation. Its temperature range is -60…+400ᵒС. The characteristics of wall panels make the house resistant to acids and other aggressive environments, temperature extremes, and fire. The material from which they are made does not accumulate moisture, is resistant to damage by rodents and microorganisms.

Mineral wool insulation is natural and environmentally friendly. Frame elements from LSTC can be reused. This property is highly valued by mining companies that build shift camps. So the ecology of the regions is less damaged.

Due to the light weight of the base and sandwich panels, the buildings do not shrink. In buildings built using this technology, it is possible to use different architectural possibilities, since spans without installing intermediate supports can reach 14-24 m.

Disadvantages of a metal profile frame

The base of metal parts has several disadvantages.

  1. In case of fire, the base of galvanized iron loses its rigidity, the building turns into a spiral, it falls off, warps. This feature reduces occupant evacuation time. A wooden beam, as opposed to iron, is charred under the influence of fire, but keeps its shape.
  2. The complexity of the installation of built-in furniture and household appliances. To solve the problem at the design stage, houses are determined with their installation sites, which are reinforced with additional profiles and wood panels.
  3. The limited number of storeys of the house and the impossibility of using heavy building materials.
  4. High conductivity of electric current metal frame. Protection against this problem is the potential balancing system.

Fabrication and installation of a frame from LSTK


The skeleton of the house is made of C- and U-profile. They are connected with self-tapping screws. Step between racks 600-1000 mm. It takes into account the dimensions of the insulation panels and allows you to conveniently mount other finishing materials.

If the house is being built according to an individual project, then after its development and coordination of all the nuances for the placement of furniture and household appliances in the premises of the future building, a 3D model of the house is made. This allows customers to see the final result in miniature. At the end of the design documentation process, the drawings are transferred to the plant that produces the metal frame parts.

On the production line, each part is made separately, numbered, packed. Finished parts are equipped with holes for fastenings and for engineering communications. For mounting the skeleton of the house, connecting elements are included in the kit for the base parts.

Buildings on individual projects are much more expensive than houses made according to standard projects. To reduce the cost of housing construction, you can use a standard project with a frame made of a thermal profile or light steel thin-walled structures using Canadian technology. Its difference from other technologies for the rapid construction of buildings is the LSTK frame and special SIP panels with special thermal insulation characteristics.

In the case of housing construction according to a standard project, the customer receives a finished frame of a certain size and shape. Base parts are labeled and packaged according to house drawings.

As a heater, in addition to mineral wool, you can use:

  • basalt slabs;
  • expanded polystyrene;
  • ecowool.

For finishing the exterior walls of the house, brick, porcelain stoneware are used. Often, hinged ventilated facades of various types are used as finishing for the facades of frame buildings. Finishing materials such as siding and block house are becoming increasingly popular. Plastering and painting of facade walls have not lost their relevance.

Complete with frame parts and connecting elements, the customer receives a description of the project, recommendations and instructions for assembling the frame, and a specification of all elements.

The company "MK Monteko" offers its services for the construction of houses, we guarantee fast and high-quality execution of the order. The light weight of the entire structure allows you to quickly deliver the necessary elements to the construction site for installation.

The cost of a steel structure house is determined by numerous factors, including, first of all, the width, length of the house and the pitch of the columns. The types of work and materials used also determine the cost of a metal structure house.

For example, the construction of a supporting frame for a house 12 meters wide and 30 meters long, which includes ordinary and half-timbered columns, roof trusses, girders, vertical and horizontal connections, fasteners, shaped parts, a set of fasteners with full design documentation for all elements will cost about 675 thousand rubles. The same house, but with the installation of sandwich panels, foundation and a full range of construction and installation works, will already cost about 3 million rubles.

About the construction of frame houses was still known in the 17th century, in order to solve the problem of building high-quality and inexpensive housing. This technology is economical, simple and, moreover, in demand. The traditional material for most low-rise frame houses is wood. An alternative to it in the building materials market is steel lightweight thin-walled structures.

Installation of a metal frame

There are many ways to build houses from a metal frame. One of them involves the use of a galvanized steel frame. Such designs are strong and durable. There are several ways to assemble this frame: its elements are interconnected by welding or self-tapping screws. The frame for the house on the existing foundation is installed for about three weeks. Of the tools you will need: a screwdriver and a cutting machine. If there is no light on the construction site, battery tools are used to mount the metal frame.

Advantages of a steel frame over a wooden frame

No shrinkage, metal frame houses do not rot, building assembly time is very short. Therefore, this method of construction is now the most relevant and popular. In addition, it is completely impossible to notice that the house is built on the basis of a metal frame, because this is not visible (both inside and outside). Sandwich panels cover the frame structure, and gypsum boards or other materials are used to decorate the room. Communications are hidden inside the frame.


Frame-panel buildings are built using a special profile that can resist high and low temperatures well. Therefore, walls made of it also have this property. Houses built using this technology are always dry and warm.

Currently, the thermal profile is effectively and widely used in small-scale construction, significantly reducing the cost of wall insulation. It has special slots that, creating an air gap, leave heat inside the house. And the design of the thermal profile itself has a low thermal conductivity.
