all of its details and final user satisfaction, mobilized all sector dynamics for accurate production and accurate service.
VEFA PREFABRİKE YAPILAR SAN. TİC. A.Ş. which is one of the vanguard and leading corporations in Turkey in the field of prefabricated buildings together with its successful studies and investments in our country and more than 25 countries since 1990, continues its activities with the mission of making both our country and the global construction sector to reach to the point where stays.
It completed its precise production process machine and facility investment which it developed for this aim, with high technology and production capacity, based on computer automation. Also in order the STEELİFE brand mark to be accurately represented in the market, it started the process of solution partnership and became general distribution in the whole Turkey with APEKS YAPI SİSTEMLERİ SAN. TİC. LTD. ŞTİ. which works in the construction sector in the issues of project, business development, marketing, sales and applications with its dynamic and paramount service philosophy and country wide retailing network.
Such partnership with is founded under the umbrella of STEELİFE started its road for making the unaccomplished until today. Excellent production and service philosophies are reflected in the whole project, detail and material usage. STEELİFE which came to life with the 25 years of experience of VEFA in its own field and more than 8 years of application experience in light steel constructions with hundreds of projects, and together with APEKS, by establishing a network of aesthetic architectures with final technological investments, appropriate detail solutions, widespread retailing and application, is providing the fact of the supremacy of the steel construction system, actually also well-known in our country, in the service of users and investments by reflecting this fact into the sector.
Today, extension of the steel construction approach, which is the choice of the technology giants in the whole world, can be realized in our country with structures with an accurate fiction, high technological quality and service network.
For the task to be appropriately fulfilled, it is aimed to provide “turn-key peace” to the users while making the steel construction systems to live in the constructions with their whole technology (time, durability, lightness, flexibility, change, transformation, architectural originality etc.)
STEELİFE which is established with the vision of transforming the journey in the production process of a building from an adventure full of uncertainties to a brand name which focuses on final user satisfaction and produced by its strong personnel, suitable to the international standards based on advanced technology, will be a success story in the coming years which will stamp the construction sector.
Why Steelife?
Which part of a construction system has the priority and importance? Pace of the construction? Carrier construction material? Whether it has the production standards or not? Project feasibility? Strength and sustainability, aesthetics and comfort in the buildings?
Of course all of these are important. And when we ask all of these questions, the non-discussable superiority of light steel system in comparison with the traditional materials and methods is seen.
STEELİFE with its galvanized light steel construction system takes a strong and modern step which will end the dominance of the traditional materials and methods in our construction sector. Together with STEELİFE security is coming, pace is coming, controllability is coming, and comfort is coming and aesthetic is coming to the constructions in Turkey…
STEELIFE,
means alternatives.
• STEELIFE Home, provides “concept” projects whose entire detail and product usages are resolved and which can address to all kinds of geographies and regions for those who wish to build individual houses, regional constructors, construction partners, real estate investment partnerships and cooperative type partnerships.
• STEELIFE, can also give service to your current project as well as it can produce special projects for you apart from “type” projects. In our current catalogue we present you STEELİFE home year 2008 projects…
• And STEELIFE Professional is the name of our service in order to produce every kind of construction with the aim of serving large construction investments, architects and construction companies, private and public institutions and foreign projects and investments. You can reach the content of these studies with our STEELIFE Professional catalogue.
Because STEELIFE means addressing all sections and masses with suitable alternatives and choices.
STEELIFE,
means security.
• Housing production and construction necessitates a neat study which must cover various kinds of security. For this reason STEELIFE, takes security which would enable you and your beloved people to live literally without any problems and paramount standards.
• Technological Security
• Production Security
• Project Services Security
• Energy Saving Security
• Isolation Security
• Cost Security
• Time Security
• Comfort Security
• Sales Security
• Application Security
• Customer Services Security
are the indispensable of STEELIFE life approach

System Definition |
|
We name our housing systems which are manufactured with light galvanized metal sheet special dimensioned profiles and main carrier systems and designed with all advanced rough and sophisticated products as “STEELİFE HOUSING SYSTEMS”.
According to its region and project and according to its static calculations and architectural designed project data steel material is used with:
• (DIN EN 10326) standard;
• (S320GD+Z, +AZ) (Erdemir quality no: 1332)
• Discharge Limit: 3200 kg/cm2 (320 N/mm2)
• Drag Tolerance: 3900 kg/cm2 (390 N/mm2)
• (S350GD+Z, +AZ) (Erdemir quality no: 1335)
• Discharge Limit: 3500 kg/cm2 (350 N/mm2)
• Drag Tolerance: 4200kg/cm2 (420 N/mm2) .

Carrier System production technology |
|
Manufacturing is done with full automatic roll forming machines. The profiles that constitute the building are; all required forms are established with continue profile line and necessary installation and connection spaces are opened under full computer control. Welding is not used absolutely at the stage of manufacturing and assembling. Connections are done with bolts and/or screws with special norms.
The required seismic and static calculations are done according to the region where the project is and according to the load values determined for the related project and standards with Sap2000, CFS, STA4CAD, BRICSCAD and HAYESCAD programs.
