Revolutionizing East African Construction with Light Gauge Steel
East Africa is undergoing rapid urbanization, with cities like Nairobi, Dar es Salaam, and Kampala facing growing demands for affordable housing, resilient infrastructure, and sustainable building solutions.

Light Gauge Steel (LGS) construction, paired with Framecad’s innovative technology, offers a transformative approach to these challenges.

Why LGS?
- Speed: Projects using LGS can be completed up to 75% faster than traditional methods, critical for addressing housing shortages and disaster recovery.
- Affordability: Reduced labor costs, minimal waste, and lighter foundations lower overall expenses, making quality housing accessible.
- Sustainability: Steel is 100% recyclable, aligning with global green building standards and reducing environmental impact.
