LIGHT STEEL CONSTRUCTION
The introduction of light steel frame building in South Africa is one of the most exciting developments in recent times – in both the steel and construction industries. Perfected over the last half century, steel frame construction has become the preferred way of building in many countries, including the United States, Canada, Britain, Australia and New Zealand.
It was only fairly recently introduced to our shores and is now growing at an astounding rate of 25% annually in South Africa.

FUTUREHOUSE ECO PANELSIkhaya Futurehouse’s thermally insulating, wall and slab building panels are not only great for the environment, but extremely easy to use. It makes buildings more sustainable due to its insulating properties, for example less heating and cooling. It keeps cool in the sum-mer, but warm in the winter. Our thermally insulated wall panel has very little mainte-nance costs but has the look of concrete. Yet it is cost competitive with brick and mortar.
MATERIALS OF THE FUTUREWith new SANS 204 and 10400-XA legislation, South Africans will be forced to meet certain

The Ikhaya Futurehouse System (IFHS) is a panellised, quick

FUTUREHOUSE WALL SYSTEM
INSULATING EPS CORE
EPS at a standard
thickness of 80mm. Expanded polystyrene (EPS) has long been accepted
rial.
REINFORCED MESH
The EPS sheet core is encapsulated by a high tensile strength steel mesh
cage. The steel is galvanised and the sheets are welded to each other
through the EPS core.
FINISHED WITH STRUCTURAL PLASTER
Once installed on site the panels are completed by the application of 35mm
thick structural plaster (20mm above the mesh) on both sides. Decorative
CORE & PLASTER THICKNESS TO SUIT YOUR REQUIREMENTS
The EPS core thickness and density as well as the plaster thickness can
vary to suit the requirements of a particular application, e.g. increased
insulation or aesthetic reasons.

FUTUREHOUSE SPECIFICATIONSFUTUREHOUSE PRODUCT BENEFITS
The walls are a monolithic reinforced construction providing stability and durability over time as well as preventing the formation of structural cracks.
PRODUCT BENEFITS
STRUCTURAL PERFORMANCE
The IFHS panels are lightweight and easy to transport and position (approximately 5kg per m² when unplastered). Plastering is quick and easy with spray hoppers.
THERMAL INSULATION
for heating and cooling, as well as reduced carbon emissions compared to traditional buildings. Keeping you warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

FIRE RESISTANCE IFHS panel is 60 minutes and
a 120 minute rating can be achieved by increasing the structural
plaster thickness by 10mm on each side.

The high tensile strength vertical steel wires run in the valleys of the corrugated
reinforced vertical columns - giving a very high load bearing capability to the walls. Further, the two sheets of mesh are welded together through the
EPS core to connect the reinforced plaster skins to each other.

ETICS
ETICS is a system comprising of roll-formed steel profile sections fixed together as per structural engineer’s design, an internal lining consisting of 1 – 2 layers of a 15 mm Gyproc RhinoBoard (as per fire rating requirements) fixed to the steel frame work and finished as desired.
The external lining consists of a moisture barrier membrane (ISOVER ‘Ecran Integra.membrane’) which is fixed to the steel frame work.
A sheath wall comprising of 12.5 mm Gyproc Glasroc H Board/OSB is then fixed to the frame work. Insulation boards (Neopor or EPS panels to a density not less than 20 kg/m2) are adhered to the Glasroc H Board/OSB sheath wall using Weber.set Ceramic L adhesive and mechanical fixings as specified by Weber.
A suitable primer is applied to the wall and finally an acrylic resin bonded decorative topcoat as specified by Weber. A sealant is then used to seal the system to ensure water tightness.
