Advantages of Steel Frame Construction
Steel Framing is excellent where high winds, earthquakes, or
termites are a problem. Steel material price is comparable to
wood. Compare to wood:
- (1) Steel will not rot or burn. Our steel is all
galvanized to resist rust even in sea side environments.
- (2) Steel is approximately 1/3 lighter and 3 times
stronger than wood, allowing greater spans for dramatic
open floor plans.
- (3) Steel easily conforms to strict building codes where
high wind loads, snow loads, seismic zones and termites
are a problem.
- (4) Environmentally friendly, our steel is 67% recycled
from existing steel resources that do not threaten the
worlds forests.
- (5) Years from now steel will not warp and settle like
wood frames. This allows doors and windows to last
longer.
Steel is better than wood in every way!
