Istanbul Educational Complex

About this project
Located in Istanbul, this 2,000 m² educational facility demonstrates the scalability and structural superiority of TheoSteel's light gauge steel (LGS) framing systems for large-scale public infrastructure. Engineered to comply with strict public building regulations and high-zone seismic standards, the complex utilizes high-strength cold-formed galvanized steel profiles to ensure non-combustible structural framing, optimal acoustic isolation between classrooms, and high thermal efficiency.
By integrating 3D BIM modeling with automated off-site pre-fabrication, complex structural load pathways and wide-span trusses were pre-engineered with millimetric precision. Rapid on-site assembly significantly compressed construction schedules compared to conventional reinforced concrete methods, delivering a safe, sustainable, and low-maintenance school facility on time.
