Why Steel Stud Framing?

Quality

Steel produces a higher-quality, more durable, stronger home. Steel frames improve fire safety compliance. Compared to wood, steel frames are impenetrable to termites and pests, stronger against earthquakes and strong winds, and impermeable to water, termites, and pests.

Steels reduce call-back costs for nail pops, floor squeaks and wall cracks due to shrinkage.

Flexibility

Steel frames come with pre-punched knock-outs for electrical wiring, plumbing and HVAC ducts. It gives builders the possibility for longer spans between load-bearing steel walls.

Metal studs twist into place and attach with screws. Reversing the screw gun can correct any mistakes. Simple!

Environment:

Steel frames are 100% recyclable, and they produce much less waste than wood. Furthermore, they increase indoor air quality and produce no emissions from resins and adhesives.

Price

Increasing wood prices have made steel framing more competitive in the last few years. It is cheaper to use steel framing for many buildings (mid-rise buildings in particular) than traditional wood framing.

Depending on the design of your building, light steel stud framing can cost as little as $19 per square foot.

Light steel framing often is the most economical framing option for mid-rise buildings.

Efficiency

Steel frames reduce the construction time by eliminating the need for case in-place concrete. Pre-punched knock-outs eliminate drilling for electrical and plumbing lines.

Building Strength

Steel has a much higher strength-to-weight ratio than any common building materials such as wood and concrete. As a result, steel framing significantly lightens the building structures.
