THE PROJECT CHALLENGE /

A lightweight and termite-proof system was required to work within the bored pier system and around larger tree roots which affected the property.

THE SBS STEEL SOLUTION /

The design smarts within the lightweight steel frame alternative eliminated unnecessary structural steel, contributing towards an easy install.

Using steel guaranteed a termite resistant system with no additional protection or barrier required.

Significant savings in the overall build cost were achieved through various time-savings including removing the need for ply bracing.

In the builder’s own words:

Couldn’t speak more highly enough of the Cortek Framing by SBS product and process; it was excellent.
