As COVID-19 restrictions ease, the general economy is expected to recover and gather momentum. This means stronger demand for commercial buildings such as offices, hotels, health and entertainment facilities.
One critical component of any commercial building site is framework supports. Framework supports are used to house pipe and duct work of varying size and weight. Alterations in requirements during the build stage, however, are a common occurrence. Modular framework could be your salvation in this scenario.
When plans change, like they often do on a building site, welded prefabricated framework is your worst nightmare. This is where innovative modular framework supports come to the fore as a versatile alternative to inflexible prefabricated solutions. For example, the Sikla ‘siFramo’ system from ACURA Group can be cut on-site and put together in a day or two using the Sikla Torx screws. It’s fast to install and no welding, which means no hot works permits and easy adjustment in future.
Does convenience compromise strength?
Surprisingly, no. The siFramo system from doesn’t compromise on anything. The components are based on weight ratio, with heavy duty framework for heavy duty pipes and ducts, or light weight frames for lighter works. Of course, when the inevitable happens and site plans change, the modular framework can simply be taken apart and put back together to suit the new design.
We’ve seen these versatile support systems used in various applications, including a purpose built trolley made from siFramo framework. What else could you design, build or re-purpose with Sikla siFramo from ACURA to support your business?
