Cold Formed Steel Framing - How and Style

Cold Formed Steel Framing - How and Style

  • Apr 02, 2022

How is Cold-Formed Steel Framing Made?


The production of cold-formed steel begins with the production of raw steel. This is made by combining iron ore or scrap steel with carbon in a furnace. Then, cold-formed steel framing is made from sheets of this structural steel.


These sheets are fed through roll-forming machines, which turn the steel into c-shaped sections or other shapes (depending on the requirements of specific applications).


Members of cold-formed steel can be made from various thicknesses, making them dynamic, versatile, and suitable for most construction projects.


Types of Cold Formed Steel Framing


Cold-formed steel can be made into a variety of products. The most common framing options are:


Stud: These are forms of cold-formed steel that have been made into a c-shaped product. They’re usually used to help frame walls.


U-Channel: U-channels are manufactured by using the roll-form technique. These U-shaped products are usually used in construction, transportation, and manufacturing industries.


Track: Track systems are usually used as external wall framing. They can also be used in the axial loadbearing of walls, floor joists, tall interior partitions, and more.


The benefits and possibilities of CFS construction are endless, and companies are continually adapting to meet demand and offer new solutions to users.
