NEDSTEEL CONSTRUCTION &DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION USING SCOTTSDALE’S STEEL FRAME TECHNOLOGY IN PHILIPPINES
NEDSteel envisions making an impact by using Scottsdale’s technology to continually grow within the construction industry by becoming a major player in the PHILIPPINES in the next 2 to 3 years.
With the obvious advantages NEDSteel can offer using Scottsdale’s Technology, there is every reason NEDSteel will be noticed by Architects, Engineers, Contractors and Developers. NEDSteel see’s the company catering to all types of projects all over the Philippines starting with their own 150 house project in Norazagary, province of Bulacan.
Background
In January 2009, NEDSteel Construction and Development Corporation was formed by a group of five young and dynamic individuals coming from different discipline whose aim was to introduce to the Philippines construction industry a new technology that is efficient and cost effective. The group then embarked on different projects using Scottsdale Construction Systems Light Gauge Steel Framing Technology. It has built more than 3,000 steel frame houses for Habitat for Humanity, constructed around 100 classrooms for other corporations and has supplied SCS Steel framing to different housing Developers throughout Philippines. NEDSteel has now embarked on its own Subdivision Development and continues to supply the market demands.
Once the truss layout is completed in Scotsteel design software the trusses are exported to the Truss Engineering Software. The Truss Engineering Software performs 146 stress tests on each truss.
The truss engineering software has optimising functionality that ensures you achieve your local engineering requirements but produce a steel truss that is economical in steel usage and competitive in the market place.
The truss engineering software can engineer steel trusses for non-cyclonic through to extreme cyclonic conditions in excess of 180 mph.
Scottsdale's light gauge steel frame & truss technology has been used for social housing and humanitarium projects in a number of countries.
In the Phillippines Habitat for Humanity in conjunction with one of our local customers has built 3,500 houses since 2005.
Scottsdale's technology for the production of light gauge steel frames and trusses is market proven in competitive volume residential group housing projects.
Scottsdale Construction Systems Limited has been providing leading-edge, total solution technology for the manufacture of lightweight steel frames and trusses since 1995.
The technology can be used for both residential and commercial steel building construction.
The technology can be used on site including in a containerised factory or in a volume factory.
The Panelised Fabrication System is suitable for complete residential houses including walls, ceilings, supports, floor joists and roof frames.
The Panelised Fabrication System can be ordered in:
- 63mm c-section profile for non-load bearing partitioning & bathroom pod markets.
- 70mm & 76mm c-section profile for modular & transportable applications.
- 90mm c-section profile for residential and light commercial applications.
The Truss Fabrication Systems produces engineered roof trusses and floor joists.
Many permutations and combinations are possible from these two systems, i.e. panels can be used for ceilings, roofs & beams; trusses for floor joists.
- Lighter than other framing materials - no lifting equipment required on site. One person can easily carry a 5-metre fabricated panel
- Easy material selection - no need to cull or sort
- Straight walls and Square corners
- Calls backs due to cracks are eliminated
- Windows and doors open and close as they should
- Less scrap and waste (2% for steel vs. 20% for timber)
- Environmental selling and green positioning
- Consumer perceives steel as better
- No drying out period in wet weather, resulting in no delays
There are many cladding options when building with light gauge steel including:
- brick veneer,
- light weight concrete,
- hebel (aerated concrete),
- linear board,
- tiled roofs and many other options.
Essentially any cladding used with traditional wood frame construction can be used with steel. Also most traditional methods of cladding can be adapted to work with light gauge steel framing.
- High strength results in safer structures, less maintenance and slower aging of structure
- Fire safety
- Not vulnerable to termites
- No additional preservative chemicals are required over and above the galvanising process to treat steel, unlike the treatment of timber
- Not vulnerable to any type of fungi or organism
- Less probability of foundation problems - 5 times lighter than wood which results in less movement
- Less probability of damage in an earthquake - lighter structure with stronger connections results in less seismic force
- Less probability of damage in high winds - stronger connections, rivetted and screwed versus nailed
Steel is a Superior Construction Material
- Highest strength-to-weight ratio of any building material
- 100% recyclable
- Non-combustible - does not burn and will not contribute fuel to the spread of a fire
- Inorganic - will not rot, warp, split, crack or creep
- Dimensionally stable - does not expand or contract with moisture content
- Consistent material quality - produced in strict accordance with national standards, no regional variations
- Steel is 100 percent recyclable. Each year, nearly 68.7 percent of all steel scrap is North America is recycled (Source: Steel Recycling Institute)
- Steel does not contribute to the growth of landfills. (Source: Steel Framing Alliance)
- Steel framed structures stay straight and true and do not expand and contract with humidity and temperature changes. This means that door and windows openings framed with steel remain stable and this saves on energy costs. (Source: Steel Framing Alliance)
- Cold-formed steel has the highest strength-to-weight-ratio of any structural building material. As a result steel projects can be built with fewer materials (Source: Steel Framing Alliance).
THE POWER TO DESIGN
Scottsdale is the leading supplier of software & hardware solutions to the building industry and its design software is the most advanced, complete solution for design and fabrication of light gauge steel framing for residential and light commercial construction. The software is powerful, intuitive, easy to use software which reduces the traditional multi step fabrication process down to one integrated solution.
ScotSteel Software
DESIGN TO PRODUCTION IN NO TIME!
ScotSteel – the heart of the Scottsdale system, state of the art, industry leading design software used to interpret the architectural designs into steel panel designs. Powerful and flexible, ScotSteel is capable of designing virtually any element (walls, roof, ceilings, floors and even items such as gable panels, overhang outlookers, soffit panels and more) into panel assemblies ready to run on the rollforming machine.
A true 3D design tool, ScotSteel allows you to easily see what’s being designed. Developed with the designer in mind, default settings handle most job specific variables. Each element is defined by a set of properties which allows the user to quickly and accurately develop a model – built the way you want it! Intuitive and easy to learn, you will love how items are linked together so one adjustment means everything else still fits. Complicated design tasks are handled quickly and accurately without all the complicated input.
Feature rich and very fast, ScotSteel has the tools you need to spend more time adding up sales and less time adding up design hours.
Powerful ScotLayout software is now incorporated in ScotSteel for fast simple extensive plan layout design.
ScotSteel exports production files to ScotPanel rollformer software simply, seamlessly and accurately.
ScotSteel designs and panel production accuracy is determined at the design stage so consistent volume production does not require high skill levels on the factory floor, as there is no welding, measuring, cutting, or specialised tool skills required, just assembly with riveting guns and self drilling fasteners.
ScotSteel allows the user to design complex multi-level or split-level buildings, followed by automatic frame generation.
All design work can be done in ScotSteel without the need to import 3D DXF files from architecture or CAD software - but ScotSteel can import a DXF floor plan from programs like Chief Architect, ArchiCAD or AutoCAD to enable quick wall generation from an architect's electronic plans.
Scottsdale enjoys a close strategic relationship with two important US corporations
We are party to cross licensing agreements with both for the ongoing development & marketing of light gauge steel truss technology. Scotsdale developed the truss technology jointly with Nucon and Truswal (Illinois Tool Works) but owns the worldwide Rights except for North America.
Scottsdale can provide its customer base with a supplier network for the worldwide supply of the components required for light gauge steel construction:
- High tensile galvanised steel coil.
- Rivets, bolts, screws & fixings.
- Tools & equipment for a frame fabrication plant.
- Tools & equipment for erection of frames & trusses.
As part of our Automated Framing Systems “Total Solution” we provide one-on-one Software and factory commission training free at our facility in Napier New Zealand.
We can also provide training in most countries globally subject to agreement.
The duration of our training program is five working days of ScottsSteel software training for the panelised system and two working days for factory machine training.
If both panelised and truss fabrication systems are acquired software training takes 10 days.
The technology comprises comprehensive virtual building 3D design software and machine control software and CNC rollforming machines.
SCS has two product lines: Panelised Fabrication Systems and Truss Fabrication Systems, although many permutations and combinations are possible, i.e. panels can be used for ceilings, roofs & beams; trusses for floor joists.
The Panelised Fabrication System can build complete Steel Houses Including Walls, Ceiling, Roof Frames & Floor Joists for the residential market. For the commercial construction sector it can be used to build Completed Steel Buildings Including Roofing Panels, Infill Panelling, External Rain Shield & Internal Partitioning.
The Truss Fabrication Systems produces fully engineered bolted steel trusses and floor joists.
These technologies have been developed for the residential & light commercial markets taking account of operational & economic realities, such as the impracticality of transporting wall frames & roof trusses any distance from the point of manufacture. This means low cost rollformers and production rates suitable for 2 to 4 man teams manufacturing & fabricating light gauge steel panels and/or trusses.
Both technologies are software & rollformer based using cold rolled steel from 0.55mm to 1.20mm thickness.
The Company was founded in Napier New Zealand in 1995 as Scottsdale Building Systems Ltd (since changed to Scottsdale Construction Systems Ltd) to develop & market light gauge steel wall & roof panel technology primarily for residential construction.
Scottsdale launched its products in earnest in 1997 comprising roll forming machines plus design & manufacturing software.
Scottsdale formed strategic relationships with two major US corporations. In 2003 NuconSteel (Part of Nucor) bought the rights to Scottsdale’s panelised technology for the North American market and Mexico.
In 2005, Scottsdale Construction Systems and Truswall (part of Illinois Tool Works) and NuconSteel entered into a joint venture and developed our truss fabrication system. Scottsdale sells the truss technology in all world markets excepting only USA, Canada & Mexico.
Today Scottsdale Construction Systems has sold 600 machines in 50 countries.
The RF700 series is an intelligent CNC rollforming machine that automatically produces all the framing components of a structure. The computer controlled, servo driven rollforming machine precisely rolls out the steel profile through seven progressive stations.
Incorporating the latest state-of-the-art technology the accuracy of the extruded steel construction components is achievable down to .5mm, which allows all components to be easily assembled, by simple insertion of one element into or over another.
The Series 700 Fabrication Systems includes a powered decoiler, laptop computer, Scotsteel design and ScotRF software.

Once frames are designed in the ScotSteel 3D design software they are exported to the production software packages:
- ScotPanel
- ScotTruss
Once exported, frames are checked once again then the CNC-controlled rollformer automatically produces all the elements cut-to-length, punched, notched and swaged.
The ScotRF rollformer software is easy-to-use with many powerful tools to improve productivity and bottom line profit.
Constant visual representation of the extrusion process keeps the operator fully informed at all times.
ScotRF Truss is the software bridge between the Design/Engineering software and the Series 600 rollformer. Completely intuitive, ScotRF Truss software will have you producing light gauge steel trusses in minutes. This software directly interprets the geometry data produced by Design & Engineering software and converts it into machine commands for the rollformer.
Houses have been built with wood for hundreds of years. Old growth trees make a good building material. However, a dwindling supply of old growth trees and environmental concerns have caused the quality to diminish.
Today, it is clear that there is a need for a new building material. Despite the myths that still surround the use of light gauge steel framing, it has come to the forefront as the best and most feasible alternative building material for residential and light commercial construction.
Termite Damage
Termites are known to destroy the wall and roofing timbers of a home within 3 months of construction.
As an example, termites cause more damage to homes in Australia than fire, floods and storms, combined.
Severe termite damage to a building is not uncommon. To compound the problem, your Home or Building Insurance Policy may NOT cover the repair costs of any timber damage caused by termites.
Toxic Mould
Moulds in Your Home can cause health problems and structural damage. The most common toxic mould is Stachybotrys chartarum, a slimy greenish-black mould that grows on moisture-laden materials. It does not grow on steel, nor does steel promote the growth of mould.
Mould can cause severe lung problems in infants and the elderly.
Steel does not contain moisture like wood. Even kiln dried wood still has a residual water content.
Fire Resistance
Steel framing is non-combustible and will not fuel a fire.
Steel will not ignite and withstands higher temperatures.
