Bringing together light steel frame manufacturers and industry professionals, the Focus on Framing conference and exhibition is new for 2019 – the first highly specialist event of its kind. Taking place on 04 of June at the NEC Birmingham, Focus on Framing will take an in-depth look at pioneering projects presented by those who conceived and developed the buildings that are gaining global attention.
Created for specifiers, engineers, architects, contractors, housebuilders, developers and manufacturers, this is a ‘must attend’ conference for construction professionals looking to explore the latest technological developments and solutions to overcome the challenges presented by new Building Regulations.

The Light Steel Frame Association aims to market the industry in a way that positively influences legislation and engages with stakeholders, government departments, ministers and relevant industry bodies to ultimately increase market share for the steel sector.
Darren Richards Managing Director of Cogent Consulting and member of the LSFA steering group said: “Light steel frame systems are a fundamentally important offsite technologies that are used in so many building types and applications.
