Does Thicker Steel Always Mean a Safer LSF Structure?
Many people judge LSF structures only by steel thickness or yield strength. But real structural safety comes from proper engineering design, load calculations, bracing systems, and overall structural behavior — not simply from using thicker steel. In this post, we discuss one of the most common misconceptions in the LSF industry.
