About ModfloorModfloor is a division of Cadsteel Pty Ltd.Experience gained in over three decades of international light gauge steel framingmanufacture and 15 years of modular housing experience has enabled Cadsteel todevelop MODFLOOR, the light gauge steel chassis that is changing the way thatchassis are constructed for modular buildings.MODFLOOR’s speed of construction completely eliminates welding so modularchassis can be assembled by unskilled labour in under three hours with little ornot training.MODFLOOR eliminates heavy hot rolled steel beams, is cheaper, lighter, stronger,does not require any measuring, or cutting and enables sub-floor services to beinstalled in the factory rather than on site.MODFLOOR’s chassis has been proven by independent testing reducing the needfor additional frame bracing and virtually eliminating the need for on-site repairsafter delivery.MODFLOOR offers Australia’s only corrosion warranty for modular floor systemsand is fully Australian owned.  MODFLOOR will shortly introduce a multi storey light gauge system, a modulargarage option and a “no-step” option for fully accessible modular construction.Keep up to date with the latest innovations by registering HERE.

THE COATING Manufactured to AS1397:2011, the ZINMAG ZM310 steel used in the manufacture of Modfloor is coated with a zinc-aluminium-magnesium alloy that is highly resistant to corrosion. These alloys have been developed to provide a breakthrough solution in surface corrosion and cut edge protection suitable for aggressive environments. HOW IT WORKS The magnesium in the zinc-aluminium system accelerates the formation of a highly resistant crystalline film which is extremely stable protecting against corrosion. With the addition of magnesium to aluminium, ZinMag ZM 310 stabilises the self-sacrificial corrosion of zinc on the coated surface and on scratches or cut edges that can occur during manufacturing or installation on-site. THE BENEFITS The magnesium changes the corrosion mechanics offering improved cut edge corrosion performance with significantly improved corrosion resistance in harsh environments, including chemical and marine environments. !MODFLOOR is manufactured from ZINMAG ZM 310 steel offering 7-10 TIMES MORE corrosion resistance than standard GI steel BEFORE SALT SPRAY TESTINGAFTER 2,000 HOURS TESTING

Extraordinary resistance to abrasion and frictionHigher resistance to edge corrosion than GISignificant corrosion resistance to salty airLower maintenance and replacement costsSALT SPRAY TESTING ZINMAG ZM 310 has been tested in Australia under ASTM B117-19 and found to be totally rust, corrosion and delamination free after 2,000 hours of testing. The salt spray test under ASTM B117-19 is a standardised method used to evaluate the corrosion resistance of materials and coatings. The test involves exposing samples to a controlled saline environment, simulating the effects of long-term exposure to harsh, corrosive conditions and is an accelerated corrosion test designed to speed up the corrosion process, providing quick results that can be used to predict long-term performance. The test involves placing samples in a chamber where they are exposed to a fine mist of saltwater solution, typically consisting of 5% sodium chloride. The chamber is maintained at a constant temperature, usually around 35°C (95°F), and the samples are continuously exposed to the corrosive environment. ! General rules can be applied to estimate the equivalence between salt spray test hours and real-life exposure suggesting that 24 hours of salt spray testing can be roughly equivalent to one year of exposure in a marine environment. On this basis 2,000 of successful testing relates to many years of strong corrosion resistance. For a copy of full test report call John direct on 0412 918 297
