When it comes to designing, prefabricating, and delivering cold formed steel(CFS) wall frames, roof trusses, floor joists, panels and more, Dynamic Steel Frame is an innovative cold formed steel framing company that utilise the automated construction technology system from FRAMECAD. So, perhaps it’s no surprise then that they took on the single largest CFS flooring cassette project ever completed.

 

Taynr based in Sacramento California have introduced FRAMECAD steel framing technology to their business and are now able to panelise CFS wall panels in a little over 2 minutes.

In the US, the framing industry is changing rapidly. Concrete contractors are becoming a rarity and timber continues to offer challenges due to inferior material and a lack of availability. These days, US construction companies are turning more and more to cold-formed steel (CFS), and FRAMECAD partner Intellisteel is revolutionizing how these steel framed structures are built.

For multi-level buildings, it’s becoming increasingly obvious that timber, concrete, and hot-rolled steel aren’t always the best options – especially when it comes to the top floor. That’s why so many developers are now looking for ways to save on time, labour, and costs during the construction process.

This project is the Hyatt Place Westminster in Colorado in USA. It is a 6-level, 156-room hotel. All 644 wall panels for this project were erected in just 17 working days using a 6-man crew (this project included only wall panel erection - no floor install, or concrete work).


The benefits of FRAMECAD panelized metal stud framing include:
- Total design flexibility
- 1 & 2 hour UL assemblies
- Simplified field erection
- Complete turn-key solution
- Construction in ¼ of the time

Douglass Colony is the exclusive FRAMECAD manufacturer for the Rocky Mountain Region.
