Hello everyone！We here are Office restoration Dot.Com. website blog.
We are doing decorative finishing construction work professionally of 《Interior decorative finishing work》《Restoration work》, mainly at Ikebukuro area , Tokyo, also in all over Kanto area, for you.
Today, we are explaining the word of『LGS』which may be often heard at construction sites.
For those who are working at construction sites, we think that the word may be familiar to you. However, I personally was not very sure about this word very well until checking it. (I have pretended to be know-it-all about this word and have been spending days lazily.(Ashamed smile!)).
I checked well this time.
At first, this LGS↓
Metal in this picture looks like silver colored iron, doesn’t it?
It seems that this 『LGS』 is an abbreviation. The original words are,
Light Gauge Steel
or
Light Gauge Stud.
The meaning is 「light」「standard」「iron frame」, isn’t it?
This LGS is designated the material used for interior decorative work.
The above picture is a light weight shaped steel plate whose thickness is 1.6 mm～4.0 mm or so, and LGS is zinc galvanized 2 mm or so thickness of thin iron plate.
It seems that the cross section shape of C is relatively a lot. There are also groove shaped, mountain shaped, Z shaped and other shaped. It is used at buildings of steel constructed, steel reinforced concrete or so for bedding material of wall and ceiling.
The single material is a rodlike component. There are several kinds of it. Using bis or accessory to fasten it, we go on making and form into variety of complex shape.
Wall and ceiling are made by LGS. Firstly, in the case of wall bedding, roll forming zinc galvanized steel plate, the mounted product is formed by C shape cross section made stringer(=stud), beam(=runner) to set up floor surface and slab surface, spacer to prevent modification of stringer(=stud), and so on.
LGS is sometimes also used for partition wall bedding, which is called partition between light steel to another light steel too. There are sizes from 50 type～ up to100 type. When used as partition wall bedding, it is often called as stud 1, not LGS.
As gypsum board is sticked on LGS, and further sticked wall paper(or cloth), so it is usually invisible.
Ceiling bedding mounted by LGS is called light ceiling.
LGS is mainly used for construction of steel structure reinforced concrete building, However, in recent years, it has been also used for wooden residence.
A big difference between LGS(=light steel structure) and wooden structure is if there is typical wood made crook, curb, or crack, and construction workability is good, or not. So, it is often used for housing apartment, office, shop or store, and so on, for many places.
We explained the point of what is LGS on earth so far as above. Did this let you understand well for your reference?
