Light metal frame structure (LSF) or the same LSF structure is a light building system that enables the load bearing system of the structure based on the increase in the number of load-bearing components. The basis of work in the LFS system is formed by the elements of studs and tracks, and the main skeleton of the structure is a combination of cold-rolled galvanized steel components. C, U, and Z profiles are used in this system, which are connected by screws or wafer head screws (self-drilling).

LSF are actually prefabricated or modular systems made from thin wall steel sections (LGS). These steel sections are actually thin steel sheets with galvanized coatings. These sheets are rolled using special machines and roll making method and are produced as light profiles in different dimensions. These prefabricated steel structures are mainly implemented dry and using complex connections.
Application of LSF Structure (LSF)
1. Multi-unit residential buildings up to 5 floors
2. Sports and educational complexes
3. Factories and industrial workshops
4. Mezzanine construction in high-height spaces
5. Adding floors in Roof to building
6. Construction of residential settlements when necessary in the least possible time
7. In general, construction of any structure and building that faces floor restrictions.
The components of the LSF structures (LSF)
In general, a panel of this structure includes several main parts as follows:
1. Cold rolled steel sheets to provide the structure
2. Board plates Gypsum as an inner coating
3. Heat and sound insulation layer
