1- WALLS

Cold-Formed Metal Framing (also known as Light Gauge Steel) for wall panels, specifically for mid-rise residential construction or any other resiential or commercial buildings. Key features and benefits include:

​

Material Quality: EBS Global uses prime steel, ensuring strength and precision. The tight tolerances in stud length contribute to high precision and reliability. EBS Global further enhances the flexibility and performance of its wall panels by using a range of 12 to 25 gauge cold-formed steel, providing optimal strength for both load-bearing and non-load-bearing walls.

​

In-House Processing: EBS Global manages the entire production process, including:

​

- Rollforming: Shaping the steel into the desired form.

- Clipping: Preparing and assembling components.

- Header and Post Building: Creating load-bearing components for frames.

- RSO Assembly: Likely stands for "Rough Stud Opening" assembly, which frames windows or door openings.

- Panel Assembly: Bringing all components together.

- Packaging/Shipping: Ensuring safe transport to the construction site.

- Shop Drawings: Providing detailed design and installation drawings.

​

Panelization Benefits: Prefabricating wall panels off-site ensures high quality, consistency, and speed of erection. The panelized system allows for fast installation once on-site, which can significantly reduce construction time. EBS Global's use of 12 to 25 gauge cold-formed steel provides additional flexibility, making the system suitable for a variety of structural requirements.

​

Customization and Delivery Assurance: Panels are built on multiple framing tables at EBS Global’s facilities to maximize productivity and meet client deadlines. The design group, fabrication team, and delivery system are all integrated to ensure seamless production and delivery.

Focus on Quality: All steps, from design to installation, emphasize quality control and a streamlined process that leverages the company’s expertise in cold-formed steel and construction. With EBS Global’s use of a wide range of steel gauges, the ability to customize panels for various project needs is further enhanced, ensuring both efficiency and durability.

​

This approach demonstrates how prefabrication and the use of cold-formed steel can enhance construction efficiency, reduce on-site labor, and maintain high-quality standards. By incorporating 12 to 25 gauge cold-formed steel, EBS Global provides even greater adaptability to meet the diverse needs of mid-rise residential and commercial construction projects.
 

2- TRUSSES

Flat Roof Trusses

EBS Global manufactures flat roof trusses utilizing our roll-forming operations to create C-stud and track members for both the top and bottom chords, as well as the web members. With our advanced roll-forming capabilities, we can produce trusses using 12 gauge material, allowing for long clear spans by increasing the size of the members when needed. This gives our clients the flexibility to use trusses that can handle larger distances without additional support.

Similarly, EBS Global can manufacture an extremely economical truss section by optimizing the member sizes and gauges, leveraging the flexibility of our roll-forming operations to reduce material usage while maintaining structural integrity. We also offer the option to manufacture a sloping top chord in flat roof trusses at no additional cost, which eliminates the need for tapered insulation, creating additional cost savings for our clients.

​

Mansard Trusses

A significant number of projects that EBS Global undertakes involve decorative Mansard truss roofs. These trusses are not only manufactured in-house but also supplied alongside our cold-formed steel wall panels and are installed by our skilled installation crews. EBS Global uses a variety of sizes and gauges of C-section stud material to fabricate Mansard trusses, which are designed in-house to match the architectural requirements and client specifications. This allows us to ensure that the trusses meet the unique aesthetic and functional needs of each project.

​

Sloped Roof Trusses

EBS Global has developed a specialty in fabricating and installing complex sloped roof systems that can vary in pitch and design, incorporating features such as mechanical wells, cupolas, and specialized venting details. The installation process for these complex roof trusses is as innovative as the design and manufacturing process. EBS Global can build entire roof sections on the ground and then hoist large sections into place at once, greatly accelerating the pace of installation.

​

By assembling roof sections on the ground, we ensure safety and efficiency, as these sections can be constructed before the rest of the structure is complete. Once ready, the pre-assembled sections are hoisted into position, providing the project with a roof as quickly as possible. This method not only speeds up the installation process but also reduces labor costs and ensures precise alignment.

​

3- FLOORS

Floor Systems

Hollowcore Concrete

EBS Global has mastered the integration of cold-formed steel wall panels with hollowcore concrete floor planks, creating a highly efficient and streamlined system. Utilizing hollowcore concrete floor planks can significantly accelerate the project timeline, and with EBS Global’s extensive experience in coordination, we eliminate the complexity of dealing with multiple trades. We manage everything from shop drawing approval to the installation of both our cold-formed steel (CFS) wall panels and hollowcore concrete plank subcontractors, ensuring a seamless construction process.

Hollowcore concrete floors are widely used in various residential structures, especially in mid-rise buildings such as hotels, student residences, apartment buildings, and condominium complexes. These hollowcore planks are pre-manufactured with a 2-hour fire rating and an STC rating of 55, providing excellent fire resistance and soundproofing. After the building is thermally and watertight, a Gypcrete topping can be applied on-site to create a perfectly flat floor, ready for finished flooring installation.

​

The most common hollowcore floor and roof elements are 205mm (8 inches) deep, which can span up to 9m (30 feet), making them ideal for larger, open spaces without the need for additional support.

​

Cold-Formed Steel Floor Truss

EBS Global also offers the design, engineering, roll-forming, and fabrication of cold-formed steel floor trusses. These trusses come in a wide variety of depths and spacings to suit the specific needs of any project. By leveraging our in-house roll-forming capabilities, we can manufacture cold-formed steel floor trusses that maximize both efficiency and economy. With different profiles of cold-formed steel, truss spacing can be set at either 2’-0” o.c. or 4’-0” o.c., paired with a low-profile deck and lightweight concrete topping to enhance structural stability.

Cold-formed steel floor trusses offer multiple benefits, including reducing the need for bulky bulkheads in suites and significantly lightening the floor load, making them ideal for buildings with poor site class conditions. Additionally, adequate fire ratings can be achieved using approved assemblies, ensuring that the floor systems meet all safety and regulatory requirements.
