Steel that goes up in days and stands for a century
A factory-made steel structure, engineered to your plans, that your crew stands in days. Then the finished home around it.
From plans to standing frame
Your architect's plans become engineered steel drawings. Wall, floor and roof panels are formed to those drawings, labeled by position and shipped ready to assemble. Screws, not welds. No specialized trades. The frame is standing in days.
Why steel
Steel does not burn, rot, warp or feed termites. It is made to the millimeter, weighs a fraction of concrete block, and is the most recycled material on earth. It carries the long spans and glass walls of a modern home.
| Property | Light-gauge steel | Wood | Concrete block |
|---|---|---|---|
| Speed | Days | Weeks | Weeks, plus curing |
| Interiors | Long spans, open plans, floor-to-ceiling glass | Limited | Limited |
| Non-combustible | Yes | No | Yes |
| Immune to termites and rot | Yes | No | Yes |
| Dimensionally stable | Yes | Shrinks and warps | Yes |
| Weight | Light | Light | Heavy, with heavier foundations |
| Precision | Made to the millimeter | Cut on site | Laid on site |
| Recycled content | Highest of any building material, fully recyclable | Renewable | Low |
| Hurricane performance | Engineered connections, tested assemblies | Requires extensive strapping | Strong, the traditional choice |
