Steel framing allows:

How long will a steel-framed home last? - With proper design and finishes, a steel-framed home can last significantly longer than a traditional wood-framed home, often with fewer structural issues over its lifetime.

Is steel framing stronger in earthquakes? - Yes. Steel is lightweight yet extremely strong and flexible, which makes it perform very well in seismic conditions.

How does steel framing affect maintenance over time? - Steel requires less maintenance because it doesn’t rot, crack, or attract insects. This reduces long-term repair costs and helps the home maintain its structural integrity for decades.
