The present invention provides construction configurations and a construction method for steel houses that eliminate the shortcoming of the conventional platform construction method for steel houses that complicates the structure because of the need to use metal reinforcements without losing the advantage of the conventional method that facilitates the construction work by using wall panels. After constructing the ground story wall (lower story wall) 22 by attaching wall panels 21 for the ground story to through vertical frame studs 20 extending to upper floors, the second story wall (upper story wall) 23 is constructed by attaching wall panels 21 for the upper Story to the through vertical frame studs 20. Of the wall panels 21 disposed along the four sides of the lower story, the top ends 29 of the two opposite wall panels 21b are positioned lower than the top ends 29a of the lower story wall panels 21a on the other two opposite sides. Both ends of the floor panel 24 are mounted on the lower top ends 29 of the wall panels 21b.
A steel house construction configuration, made by constructing a structural framework by assembling vertical frame studs and wall panels prepared by attaching a face member to a wall frame prepared by assembling light gauge channels made from sheet steel into rectangle form erected on a foundation and a floor panel formed by attaching a floor plate to floor joists, characterized in that the walls of an upper story are constructed in the manner that the vertical frame studs provided at intersections of the wall panels and corners are through studs continuing to an upper story, the wall panels for the lower story are disposed along the four sides of a rectangle that constitutes a room of the lower story and connected to the through studs;
