They say, the only thing that is consistent is change, and thanks to the basic rules of supply and demand the cost of materials and labour are continuously changing. When construction is booming labour and materials are on high demand and supply can often be low, resulting in an increased price for both quality labour and quality materials. The following blog discusses some current market conditions and how FRAMECAD can help you control the growing cost of labour and amount spent on building materials.

Prefabrication has long been touted as the answer to smarter, faster, and safer construction. The prefabrication revolution is quietly changing the way engineering and construction works. Many companies are starting to see how this change in construction is enhancing their business and granting a competitive edge, particularly when paired with the right materials.

Over the past three weeks, we have been proud to publish our blog series on the cold formed steel experts of FRAMECAD - the people that have the vision and dedication to improve the way the world constructs. From our passionate account managers and construction experts, to our in-house equipment designers, manufacturing engineers and talented software staff, we are proud to create our end-to-end automated construction systems entirely all at our dedicated Tech Park in Auckland, New Zealand.

There’s nothing more frustrating than purchasing a new machine only to realise you need to completely translate all your design and detailing work into a whole new format before you can start producing. At FRAMECAD, our focus on ensuring that the cold formed steel construction process is as smooth and efficient as possible drives us to provide a seamlessly integrated end-to-end solution. A key part of that solution? FRAMECAD Factory.

Detailing is an essential part of the construction process – but it can also be a time-consuming stage. Implementing a Cold Formed Steel (CFS) methodology & advanced detailing software that integrates with your production machines can greatly improve this process. So how is FRAMECAD Detailer assisting fast manufacturing of Cold Formed Steel – and who’s behind its innovations?
