Botau Construction is a leader in building projects using innovative light steel frame (LSF) designs. The LSF building system is based completely on dry building, with the exception of the foundation. This system can be used for putting up quality stable large-scale building projects.

The LSF building system is a fully standardised concept, controlled by CAD/CAM software and computer applications. Botau has developed one of the most advanced technologies in the industry. We use leading-edge engineering and assembly techniques in our daily operations, and take responsibility for the software support and project engineering.

LSF Building Solutions

LSF building is popular because of the:

• High level of efficiency and precision (due to pre-fab technology);
• High quality industrialisation (can be used for mass production and construction);
• High quality standards (due to the high degree of structural stability);
• Short construction times (less than 60% of the construction time of the traditional method);
• User-friendliness and environmental friendliness (easy to assemble, less waste, 100% recyclable);
• Low dead weight (fewer requirements for foundation and logistics due to the light weight);
• Overall cost return;
• Energy efficiency (easy maintenance of desired temperature; floor, roof and walls are insulated).

Want to realise a building project in an area where there is little or no infrastructure? Yes, you can, with our Completely Portable Factory. This completely moveable construction factory enables us to realise building projects when it is difficult or cannot be done with conventional building methods.

Safety, sustainability and technical lifetime, construction speed, time to completion, and project and material expenses are important parameters to keep in mind when choosing the best construction methods. You will have to set your priorities according to your needs.

In remote areas or in emergency situations where there are different environmental restrictions, potential hazards and no logistical infrastructure, another approach is required, and sometimes conventional building methods are not even feasible.

Portable Solutions

With our Completely Portable Factory, we can provide a turn-key portable solution. You can choose these innovative solutions when setting up emergency assistance for natural disasters, rebuilding areas for humanitarian projects, or for industrial projects in the offshore, oil and gas industries in remote regions.

Botau has developed a CAD/CAM roll form machine for production of LSF components for large-scale use. We can also develop it for your business! Naturally, custom made and geared to your specific wishes and needs.

The machines are computer driven, so all the frame components (U/C profiles) are produced with exacting precision and are completely pre-fitted and ready for assembly.

How does it work?

Each product is marked with a dip and notch so that it fits the holes in the fastener and the components can be independently fitted together without any need for clamping or drilling. This design also makes it possible to slot in components simultaneously and add the fasteners to complete the frame.
