Steel: More Simple and Smart
When it comes to construction, efficiency is key. Whether you’re a seasoned contractor or a DIY enthusiast, the choice of building materials can impact your project in many ways.
Using cold-formed steel, one of the most advantageous factors is its precision in the way it is manufactured. The consistent quality and uniformity in dimensions eliminate the variability that is commonly found when using wood framing. This simplifies the time to build while ensuring trust that each piece will fit evenly.
Cold-formed steel framing is considerably lighter when compared to wood framing making it easier to handle and faster to assemble. The steel components are precut and pre-punched at FastFrame allowing for quick on-site assembly with minimal tools.
Cold-formed steel is also highly adaptable to pre-fabrication. Entire walls, floors, and roof sections can be manufactured off-site in a controlled environment then shipped directly to the job site for assembly. This speeds up the construction process as well as ensuring higher quality and reduces waste.
Steel framing offers consistency, ease of assembly, and adaptability to pre-fabrication to a streamlined construction process. For builders looking to optimize their projects, cold-formed steel presents a modern solution that addresses many of the challenges associated with traditional wood framing.
