Why Steel?

Steel is a revolution in construction technology.
Its strength, durability and resistance are incomparable.

Steel technology challenges conventional techniques.

STEELIFE provides perfect comfort, esthetic and security. Consisting of galvanized light steel construction systems, STEELIFE structures are ready to supersede conventional construction technology thanks to its new century technology. Stereotyped judgments are breaking down instead of STEELIFE structures will leave their mark on worldwide construction sector…
Steel construction system provides reliability, rapidity and functionality for the construction sector...
Power of STEELIFE is based on galvanized steel construction technology. Thanks to unique eligibility and advantages of this technology, STEELIFE offers risk free and effective solutions both in project and application basis to meet demand of individual residence candidates, investors, constructors, public and private institutions.

STEELIFE: Power of the steel
A strong transformation in worldwide construction sector is around the corner. Sector meets power of steel and conception of STEELIFE as a result of which gains reliability and rapidity. STEELIFE initiates steel reformation in Turkey. STEELIFE brings unique power and comfort of steel to the living spaces. Overall specialized companies pledge “turnkey comfort” under cover of STEELIFE.
Steel is durable...
Steel displays the strongest respond to earthquake. Strength of steel of unquestionable due to its ductility; 21 times more flexibility in comparison with timber and 10 times more than that of reinforced concrete (concrete + iron equipment); appropriateness to poor ground areas; lightness; small ratio of specific weight to carried load; elongation rate; capability to change its structure under load and capability to turn back prior resistance when loading is completed; more homogenous* and isotropic** structure in comparison with concrete; and its high resistance.

Thanks to its high flexibility, light steel constructions only sway, not collapse. Walls of these constructions are also carrier; therefore risk is not increased as done with reinforced concrete where load is imposed to beam and column.

* Homogenous: distribution of the material is same in every part.
**Isotropic: Overall characteristics of the material are same in every part and in every direction.

Steel is resistant.
Thanks to its resistant, flexibility, homogeneity, ductility and lightness, in short its strength, steel represents incomparable is resistance not only to earthquake, but also moisture, fire, corrosion, storm, termites and similar pests.

After galvanization process, steel units can protect its initial resistant even in most humid regions for many decades.
While risk of thunderbolt is high in other structures, earthing of steel structures eliminates overall risks. Steel is processed through accurate techniques and covered with composite materials internally and externally as a result of which fire effect against carrier system is eliminated. It is determined that steel structures are resistant to corrosion more than hundred years.

Steel is practical.
Light steel construction is a rapid construction system. Main carrier system is established in resident type constructions within one week regardless of seasonal differences. Turnkey construction is finalized within 2 months. A specific “construction season” does not exist. Reinforced concrete is not required, except for base. As production is realized on fabrication basis and easy and rapid delivery, minimum time, rapid and practical assembly opportunity is provided as a result of which construction time is minimized and maximum construction easiness is provided on site.

Steel is reliable.
Light steel construction system is reliable, because;
• It has advanced characteristics in terms of raw material, material and production. Any risk does not exist which may be possible to occur due to human faults during supply of raw material, production and assembly. It is obvious that raw material is supplied from reliable sources and production is realized in accordance with specific standards and on the basis of computer control without enabling human faults.
• System provides usage security through based standards and regulations.
• It is clear and controllable system. Assembly of steel construction in accordance with regulations and projects provides easy control in any time.

Steel is economical
Light steel construction systems are more economical in comparison with conventional construction systems. Because;
• Its construction period is short and does not depend on season and climate. While cost of money and input materials, as well as investment terms increases consistently in constructions made of conventional materials, similar problem is not confronted in steel construction system. Therefore, cost of investment is lower.
• Cost of delivery is lower due to less and controllable deliveries.
• Unnecessary cost of labor and site is eliminated via actual work-time schedules.
• Early delivery of the building provides sales and rent revenue advantage.
• Since any beam and column does not included within light steel constructions, savings from space is created via dimensions of entresol, internal and external wall sides. In addition, this opportunity increases ergonomic and economical value of the building.
• Cost of base decreases due to less overall building weight in steel constructions.
• Carrying structure is long-lasting providing a reliable life for generations.
• Value of the building is high due to minimal maintenance need, unlimited solutions for restoration and modifications and low cost and easiness of overall repairs and modifications. That’s why it is an accurate investment.
• Resistant to natural disasters such as earthquake, storm and flood, prevention of loss of life and property faced in conventional constructions and rapid and easy maintenance of minimum damages arisen after relevant disasters represents extra economical value of light steel construction systems.
• Since nearly all productions are applicable through mechanical installations in accordance with quantities defined in the project, rate of material scrap and loss is minimum.
• Isolation and energy usage of complete projects are designed in compliance with regional and seasonal data; therefore, initial expenditures made for the building amortize itself.
• Social benefits of above given advantages should be considered.
• Any value cannot be important than desire of arriving home without any problem and in a comfortable manner.
• Carrier can be reused and it is recycled system.

Steel is ecological.
As steel is made of recycling material, it prevents consumption of natural resources. Dismounting and portability of the material contributes to ecology of the construction. Every kind of steel provides 100% recoverability after dismounting and can be reused. Any wooden framework cast is not required and provides advantages in delivery. In addition, steel is not harmful, is free from toxicological and allergic effect.

Steel is esthetical.
Light steel construction system provides more esthetical usage areas and can be applicable easily in overall classical and modern architectural project. Besides it provides a real comfort to the users via its various options in internal and external coverings, hygienic characteristic and easily meet of maintenance, modification and restoration demands.

Steel provides maximum esthetic in internal and external space, as well as top comfort via its technical and material alternatives offered.


Steel is a global reform in the sector…
Usage rate of structural steel in construction sector is approximately 60%. Turkey is the 11th country in worldwide and 3rd country in Europe in ranking of steel production. Steel industry is capable of producing 10 million meter square construction site in Turkey. Only 5% of overall constructions use structural steel in Turkey. Relevant rate is extremely low in comparison with other countries. Steel consumption rate is 0.5% in residences. Associated rate is 54% in England, 40% in Scandinavian countries, 40% in France and 30% in countries where reinforced concrete usage is extremely high such as Germany.
As for industrial constructions this rate increases to 90%, while it is only 30% in Turkey. *
