The lightweight steel structure residential building has properties of the green, energy-saving, environmental protection and etc. In the past few decades, there have been a growing interest in the use of cold-formed steel structure in all aspects of building construction, and in many developed countries, there have been significant developments about cold-formed structural building. However, in some developing countries, lightweight steel structure residential building just started. In this paper, we introduce some properties of lightweight steel structure residential buildings and the current research situation. On the basis of them, we analyze and study lightweight steel structure residential buildings in North America, Japan and Europe in detail, and give their some features. Then according to China particular conditions, development status and properties are introduced about lightweight steel structure residential building, including some traditional housing concept, and intensive steel residential building. Based on above investigations, some suggestions and countermeasures are given. It is believed that it is significant and helpful for promoting China housing industrialization.
