Timber has been the building material of choice for many centuries, but with an increasing demand for more sustainable and efficient building solutions, many are looking to incorporate steel into their projects. 

Instead of transitioning to steel frames for the complete structure of a building, using both timber and steel together is a good first step to a hybrid approach. 

Customers and invited guests joined theteam at our new Customer Success Center in Las Vegas for our first FRAMECAD Network Summit. Participants learned about FRAMECAD's growth plans and were given the opportunity to input their feedback and ideas around our products and services.It was alsoa great opportunity for them to build their knowledgeand tonetworkwithother FRAMECAD users.

With many building projects now switching from timber to steel for their structural framing, it’s important to understand the differences in the construction process that follows using either material. You’d be reassured to know that the differences aren’t substantial.

CFS: Ideal for both onsite and offsite construction

A core advantage of cold formed steel (CFS) is its adaptability and its suitability for the two main construction methodologies: onsite and offsite construction. In this post, we explore the differences between these two construction methodologies, and how the different approaches combine to demonstrate the superb versatility of CFS.
