The Sunshine Coast demands a resilient home. From scorching summers to unpredictable cyclones, your dream home needs to withstand the elements.That’s where frames made from TRUECORE® Steel come in.

AUSMAR, a leading Sunshine Coast builder, champions house frames made from TRUECORE® Steel for its numerous advantages. This framing material offers a perfect blend of strength, sustainability, and design flexibility, making it ideal for the modern Australian homeowner.

BUILDING WITH STRENGTH: WHY CHOOSE TRUECORE® STEEL?

TRUECORE® Steel boasts an impressive strength-to-weight ratio. This translates to several key benefits:

  • Durability: Frames made from TRUECORE® Steel won’t shrink, twist or warp over time, so there’s less chance of sticking windows, jammed doors and wavy roof lines. This stability helps to ensure your home maintains its structural integrity for decades, minimising future maintenance.
  • Weather Resilience: House frames made from TRUECORE® Steel comprise the structural elements that deliver lateral and vertical resistance to wind, and protect the building envelope against external weather conditions.
  • Fire Resistance: A house frame made with the inner strength of TRUECORE® Steel won’t catch fire and may help you achieve the standards required for building in even the most severely rated flame zone.

THE CONSTRUCTION ADVANTAGES OF HOUSE FRAMES MADE FROM TRUECORE® STEEL

TRUECORE® Steel offers significant advantages during the construction process:

  • Fast Construction: House frames made from TRUECORE® Steel are prefabricated off-site to precise specifications. This allows for faster assembly on-site, leading to shorter construction times compared to traditional methods.
  • Reduced Waste: Precise prefabrication minimises on-site wastage of materials. This not only reduces construction costs but also promotes sustainable building practices.
  • Design Flexibility: Despite its strength, TRUECORE® Steel is surprisingly versatile. TRUECORE® Steel framing provides architects and designers with almost limitless ability to design facades that are lightweight, durable and add tremendous value to the aesthetic appeal of a building.

WHY AUSMAR CHOOSES TRUECORE® STEEL

AUSMAR recognises the numerous benefits of TRUECORE® Steel and has made it a cornerstone of their construction philosophy for several reasons:

  • Faster Delivery: TRUECORE® Steel homes can be completed in a shorter time frame compared to traditional methods. This allows AUSMAR to deliver homes to their clients faster.

BEYOND THE BUILD: ADDITIONAL BENEFITS OF TRUECORE® STEEL HOMES

The advantages of TRUECORE® Steel homes extend far beyond construction:

  • Termite and Pest Resistance: Termites and borers are a problem in Australia. So, it’s good news that frames made from TRUECORE® Steel are 100% termite and borer proof.
  • Lower Maintenance: TRUECORE® Steel is made by BlueScope to strict tolerances and fully complies with all relevant Australian Standards. Steel frames don’t shrink, twist or warp over time which may help reduce builder call-backs and ongoing maintenance issues.
  • Improved Energy Efficiency: A frame made from TRUECORE® Steel can be lined, insulated and clad in a variety of ways which can deliver the desired thermal and acoustic properties.
