Why choose steel framing?
Precision Engineering and Manufacturing
-
CNC layout and cutting to precise specifications for more accurate construction
Non Combustible
-
cold-formed steel does not burn and will not contribute to the spread or intensity of a fire. Research has also set the melting point of steel at approximately 2700°F, which means that is will not melt in a building fire, where temperatures average 1000°F and almost never exceed 1800°F.
Quality and Workability
-
No warping, twisting, bowing or bending
-
No Shrinking, cracking or twisting.
No Termites
-
Unlike wood, Steel framing is not susceptible to termite damage eliminating the need for routine termite maintenance and fees.
Strength
-
Steel has the highest strength to weight ratio compared to wood.
-
Steel framing is not subceptable to rot, mold. or mildewing which can weaken the structural integrity of wood framing.
No Mold, Mildew or Toxix chemicals
-
Unlike wood framing, steel framing will not mold or mildew if exposed to moisture.
