  • some benefits building with steel
  • steel framing houses are prefabricated that means we offer very fast build houses.
  • Steel is roll-formed into precise, uniform shapes with exacting tolerances for consistent material quality.
  • Steel studs are straight. They don't warp, twist, bow, split or have knots, which means straight walls and square corners and doors and that open and close properly.
  • Steel is dimensionally stable and won't shrink like wood, eliminating nail popping, wall cracking or floor sqeeking.
  • Steel does not rot, promote mold or mildew and is impermeable to termites, vermin and insects.
  • Steel has one of the highest strength to weight ratios of any building material.
  • Because of its strength, steel can mean fewer framing members with wider. on-center spacing, reducing material and labor costs.
  • Steel framing can weigh less when compared to traditional building materials like masonry and concrete systems.
  • Light gauge framing can reach spans far greater than traditional or engineered lumber, providing larger open spaces, taller walls and flexible floor plans.
  • Steel framing lightens structures, reducing foundation requirements and often reducing or eliminating piling.
  • Stick for stick, steel can weight u to 50% less compared to lumber.
  • Steel can adapt to almost any application and works well independenly or in combination with other structural systems.
  • Steel building are lighting resistant because steel framing provides multiple conductive paths directly to the ground.
  • Steel framing can be engineered to meet the highest seismic and wind loads prescribed by building codes.
  • Steel's strength and resiliency help it to survive earthquakes.
  • Smaller probability of damage in high winds; stronger connections (screwed vs. nailed) can withstand greater winds.
  • For generation we have relied on the strength and durability of steel in our commercial buildings, hospitals and schools.
  • Steel offers builders an environmentally friendly alternative to wood.
  • There is little waste when using steel framing materials.
