Features, Advantages

The use of cold-formed steel members as a building material benefits not only the contractor, designer, developer and owner, but the environment as well. Cold-formed steel is a strong material that allows for long clear-spans, while also being light, easy to handle and straight, providing contractors the means to erect a frame that is “true.”
