Steel Builds Better Structures

Pound for pound - no other building material is as cost-effective as cold-formed steel framing.

The Benefits of Steel Framing

Working with Freespan Homes certainly offers a number of tremendous benefits, although none may be as important as improving the integrity of a home through steel framing. Increased safety and a more durable home are two very important and easily observable benefits that steel framing members have over traditional lumber. The owner of a steel frame home can expect the framing to last hundreds of years without any degradation or loss of properties.

For generations, we have relied upon the strength and durability of steel in commercial buildings, arenas, hospitals, and our children's schools. Now, you can have the superior quality and safety of STEEL in your home, at a price you can afford.

Steel framing provides:

• Improved Strength & Durability
• Fire Resistant
• Termite Proof
• Vermin Proof
• Carpenter Ant Proof
• Enhanced Architectural Design

Steel framing is also:

• Environmentally Conscious
• Recyclable
• Non-Toxic
• Rot & Split Proof
• Creak & Crack Proof

Many of the advantages of buying a steel frame home stem from the superior strength to weight ratio of steel. A steel framing system provides homeowners additional security and safety for their investment, and more importantly, their family. Steel's inherent strength and non-combustible qualities enable a steel framed home to limit damage from such devastating events as fires, earthquakes, floods, and hurricanes.

Homes framed with steel are straighter, stronger, and more resistant to natural disasters, termites, and insects. These superior qualities are among the many reasons why some insurance companies offer discounts on homeowner policies.

Our homes can be designed to meet the highest seismic, wind, and snow load specification in any part of the country.

Steel is a superior material in terms of its consistency, uniformity and predictability. These qualities allow our architects to design standard model floor plans with luxurious options. Because of its strength, steel can span greater distances offering large, open interior spaces and increased design flexibility.
