INTRODUCTION
METSEC SFS
Metsec SFS fast track building systems are specified to construct
infill and continuous walling, low-rise stand alone buildings and
high bay separating walls. SFS has all the benefits of cold-rolled
sections; supreme versatility, buildability, high speed construction
and significant reductions in dead loadings. The warm frame
approach achieves excellent thermal performance and the
system is ideal for low ground bearing pressure situations.
The precision engineered components facilitate reduced building
maintenance and reduce site material wastage. The net effect is a
reduction in programme timescales and project costs. Metsec SFS is
the ideal partner for British Gypsum linings. The two combine
seamlessly to achieve the fire, acoustic and thermal performance
levels required within the built environment.

INTRODUCTION
METSEC METFRAME
Front Elevation
The Metsec Metframe system, using cold rolled lightweight
galvanized steel sections in bolt together pre-fabricated
panels, provides a fast-track solution for medium rise load
bearing superstructures .
Every project is structurally designed in-house and
underwritten by PI Insurance. Sophisticated software,
developed for Metframe, is used by technical staff to
model and detail all structural elements of the building.
Metframe structures are fabricated and erected on site by
approved Installers who assemble panels within their own
factory environment in accordance with sequencing and
procedures approved by Metsec.

Metsec SFS is a lightweight, galvanized, cold-rolled, fast-track
building system, with a proven track record in external wall infill,
high bay separating walls and low-rise stand alone structures.
It is specified extensively in projects where speed of construction
and/or a lightweight frame is a requirement. Application areas
include schools, apartments, student accommodation, commercial
developments, hospitals and other public buildings. It is a proven
solution which provides a quick external weathered envelope.
The Metsec SFS system is also ideally suited for sub-division
of buildings where its lightweight nature usually means that
additional foundations are not required.
Stand alone structures, particularly roof top extensions, stick
built or pre-panelised are yet another application of this
robust, lightweight building method.
Metsec’s technical support team are able to provide an immediate
response to enquiries where their in-house engineers prepare
initial calculations in order to establish structural zones and
determine a budget costing. On receipt of an order, full structural
calculations and standard details are produced. All designs
include structural calculations and are underwritten by Professional
Indemnity Insurance.
The installed system will need to meet specific fire, acoustic
and thermal performance criteria. British Gypsum insulation and
lining specifications are available to meet the most onerous
performance requirements. They are fully substantiated by
extensive, independent tests carried out at British Gypsum’s
Building Test Centre – a fully accredited UKAS testing laboratory.

Metsec SFS relies on high quality, purpose designed
components. The design of sections draws on Metsec’s
extensive cold rolling knowledge to maximise strength to
weight ratios. Stud/joist sections and channel runners are
manufactured from pre-hot dipped galvanised steel G275
coating, guaranteed yield strength 390 N/mm2
and Quality
Assured to BS EN ISO 9002:1994. Sections can be supplied in
lengths up to 16m to minimise the need for cutting and splicing
on site. In practice, maximum lengths will be dictated by
transportation and site handling considerations.
Joist/stud sections
These form the main support of the structure and are used primarily as wall studs
and floor joists. Joist/stud sections are also used in combination with channel
runners to create lintels and cills at door and window openings.
Channel runners
Runners are used to form the horizontal base,intermediate and capping sections
of the stud walls.The depth of runner used will depend on its function.
Bracing
Flat strap section is used as lateral and diagonal bracing to resist racking forces.

The Metsec Steel Framing System (SFS) provides infill or continuous
frame panel support for the majority of exterior cladding materials
including brickwork. It is suitable for both low-rise or high-rise
construction. Stud size, spacing and anchorage are determined
by the floor to floor heights, deflection criteria and lateral wind
load pressures.
The system combines high performance with fast, dry construction
techniques. The building can be made weather tight at an early
stage in the construction programme by fixing rigid foam insulation.
If required Isowool insulation, from British Gypsum-Isover, is fitted
into the stud cavity to enhance the thermal insulation performance.
The use of lightweight steel sections avoids the problems inherent
in the use of timber sections.
Early weather protection to the building
Lightweight,dry construction
Pre-fabrication on or off-site
Achieves high thermal and acoustic performances
Wind posts not required
Gives lateral support to most external cladding materials
Minimises wet trades on site
An unlimited range of project solutions is available using either
infill or continuous external walling. Whatever the project, the
design flexibility of Metsec SFS external wall options will enable
the challenge to be met.

METSEC SFS
HIGH BAY
SEPARATING WALLS
Metsec SFS High Bay Wall is a high performance single span separating
wall. Its lightweight construction and uniformly distributed loading
normally obviates the need to strengthen foundations or existing
floors. This reduces the time required for installation and minimalises
the overall project cost.
Dry construction techniques.
No need to strengthen foundations in most cases.
Up to 3 hours fire resistance using British Gypsum boards.
Full height studs up to 16m.
Straightforward to build.
The high performance characteristics of the wall coupled
with ease of build qualities make this the first choice
solution for many commercial, public and industrial projects.
In addition to achieving high levels of fire protection,
using British Gypsum’s Gyproc and Glasroc boards, the walls
can provide acoustic insulation up to Rw62dB.

METFRAME
THE SYSTEM
Based on an excellent track record and proven engineering
principles, Metframe is specified for medium rise building
superstructures.
Metframe uses lightweight, cold rolled, galvanized steel sections in
bolt together pre-engineered panels to form storey high walls.
These combined with structurally efficient floors provide the
stability and integrity to the building, eliminating the need
for a steel or concrete primary frame. External wall panels are
highly insulated and their design allows for architectural flexibility
in the size and location of window and door openings.
In-house detailing ensures that, following approval of the detailed
model,electronic transfer of details of individual components to the
rolling mills is fast and accurate including dimensions, bolt hole
locations and any counter forming requirements.
British Gypsum works
closely with Metsec in a
continuous programme to
develop drywall construction
methods to satisfy all of the latest
statutory fire,thermal and acoustic
requirements. Independent test data is
available to substantiate these solutions.
Metframe is used for a diverse range of
medium rise structures. Successfully
completed projects include hotels,hospitals,
nursing homes, apartments,schools and
student accommodation.

ASSEMBLY
R I N G B E A M
The ringbeam of a cold-rolled galvanized C-section is an essential
part of the Metframe structure. Once installed it forms the level
base for all load bearing walls as well as establishing the set out
lines for all floors. Angle cleats are anchored to the foundations
and the vertical leg is fixed to the external face of the C-section
ringbeam. When all ringbeams are installed the ground floor slab
is poured using the ringbeam as a permanent shutter, which
provides a level base for the wall panels.
W A L L F A B R I C A T I O N
The approved Metsec installer will deliver panels to site and erect
them. External panels have foil-faced rigid foam insulation and
brick-tie channels or cement particle board for render factory fitted
during fabrication. Panels will include all door and window
apertures to receive windows by others.
F L O O R L O A D I N G
Prior to fixing floor decking to the top of wall panels, each room is
‘loaded out’ with bathroom ‘pods’ and plasterboard together with
any other finishing materials. The early ‘loading out’ of materials in
this manner greatly improves the finishing works programme.

PERFORMANCE TABLES
S T R U C T U R A L
Metframe and SFS load bearing solutions are achieved using
accurately designed engineered components. The studs, channel
runners and joists specified are strengthened by lateral and/or
diagonal bracing,stiffening, and solid blocking as required to satisfy
the wind loading and structural integrity criteria.
All designs produced by Metsec’s in-house team are underwritten
by Professional Indemnity Insurance.
Comprehensive load/span data is given in the performance tables
contained within. For external walling the maximum allowable
lateral wind loads (kN/m2
) are given for studs at 600mm centres
and lateral bracing at mid-height. The tables shown are applicable
to limiting deflections of height/360 and height/600. The table
for internal walls gives the maximum allowable axial load (kN/stud)
for studs at 600mm centres and lateral bracing at mid-height.
The span table for internal floors gives the maximum allowable
spans for joists at 400mm or 600mm centres against different
uniform dead/live criteria. The spans apply with or without
acoustic overlay.
T H E R M A L E F F I C I E N C Y
The U values quoted in the external wall table have been obtained
by the combined method,which takes account of the performance
of the individual elements which make up the wall construction.
The whole building thermal efficiency requirements of national
Building Regulations can be determined using one of three
methods of compliance; the carbon index method, elemental
method and target U value method.
S O U N D I N S U L A T I O N
The Rw ratings given in the performance tables apply to imperforate
constructions laboratory tested in accordance with BS EN ISO 140-3:
1995, and rated in accordance with BS EN 717: 1997 or assessments
based on these tests. The Ctr adaption term is a requirement of
the Building Regulations, Approved Document E. The Rw + Ctr
measurements emphasise the low frequency performance of
separating elements and assist the building designer in specifying
the best solution. It must be stressed however, that the
Regulations generally require performance to be proven by site
tests and to achieve this full account must be taken of flanking
sound transmission and junction detailing.F I R E R E S I S T A N C E
The fire resistances given in the performance tables apply to
imperforate constructions tested to BS476: Part 22: 1987 or
assessments based on these tests.
