Steel Framing Background

Light Steel Framing has evolved into one of the most commonly used building materials through its inherently beneficial properties. Steel is non-combustible, 100% recyclable, and has the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any building material. Additionally, steel will not warp, rot, crack, or creep. The innate properties existing in light steel framing allow for straight walls and square corners, substantial discounts on builder's risk insurance, and deliver quality assurance through strict manufacturing guidelines.

Steel Framing enables construction professionals to build significantly longer clear spans than are possible with wood framing, delivering substantial design freedom to those who desire more open spaces in their buildings. Use of load bearing studs also reduces the size of footings which would be used in wood or masonry framing.

The Steel Network, the industry leader for light steel framing connection solutions, developed the innovative SigmaStud^®, the revolutionary load bearing wall stud which carries up to 40% greater axial loads than a like-thickness "cee shapes".
TSN also produces JamStud^®, the member which minimizes built-up jamb stud sections typically used in wall openings. Each of these products joins the standard SSMA sections and the StiffWall^® shear wall as part of the Steel Smart System^® database.
