Get heavy with metal framing construction

More strength and potential for lower costs let metal framing shine

Metal framing is a fast-growing alternative to traditional wood framing. Your contractor must know the differences and characteristics of both of these construction techniques. Inexperienced installers can lead to long-lasting problems with your project.

Also known as cold-form steel framing, interior metal framing was developed for use in areas with high-wind and seismic dangers. The steel connections have extra holding power for these type of applications.

Metal framing’s fireproof characteristics, resistance to insects, and stability have resulted in increasing popularity in commercial and even home construction. Its zinc covering also makes it corrosion resistant.

It is a green material as well. On average up to 25% of the raw material is recycled, and 100% of it is recyclable. Up to 40% of commercial buildings have metal framing.

Let’s take a deeper look at this versatile material and the right way to use it in commercial construction.

What is metal framing exactly?

Metal framing is sheet steel fabricated to sizes matching those of wood construction materials. Shaped by sending it through a series of rollers to “bend” it into the final shape of it posts and channels, its dimensions include 2×4, 2×6, 2×8, etc.. Since the shaping takes place without heat the material ends up being stronger than the original sheet steel.  [Read more…]

Dean Eaton Plant/ Facilities Manager

David Seip, and his company, has provided excellent service to us and our facility at Regal Marine Industries, a privately held luxury performance boat company located on an 88 acre campus in South Orlando. With his extraordinary leadership qualities, he has provided us with high quality workmanship on our buildings, drop ceilings, roofing, concrete work, landscaping, painting, and electrical to name just a few. David Seip is a hard-working self-starter who invariably understands exactly what a project is all about, from the outset, and how to get it done quickly and effectively. During the past four years that he has done work for us, he has often brought projects in on budget, and a few were even completed ahead of schedule. In closing, as detailed above, based on my experience working with him, I can unreservedly recommend CAM Contracting and David Seip to meet your needs and expectations.

It is with great pleasure I am able to recommend CAM Contracting and its President, David Seip. I have had the privilege to use CAM contracting on many different projects over the past five years. All the projects have been completed satisfactorily and with excellence. CAM has completed small size projects (install a new exterior doors or windows), medium size jobs (replace drywall in a home) and large commercial projects (tear down and replace the framing and concrete floors of 3-story stair towers on multiple apartment buildings) involving many subcontractors and a multi-month critical path plan. Each time I engaged Mr. Seip and CAM, they were focused on finishing the project with excellence and timeliness. Mr. Seip has always been personally involved in each project to make sure that subcontractors were completing their portion accurately. I have always appreciated his attention to detail and excellent communication of progress or issues. As a Christian business leader, it is obvious to me that Mr. Seip lives his faith daily and holds himself and his company to the highest moral standards and business practices. We will be turning to CAM Contracting in the future for any of general contracting needs. Thank you for the opportunity to share my experiences with you. With Respect,

We have called on David Seip and his business to complete a 2nd job in our home. David is honest, professional, and does excellent work. He and his crew go the extra mile to make the project perfect and to make sure that I am satisfied. He listens and gets it right the first time.

CAM Contracting gave us 100% satisfaction and more! They bid on target, arrived when they said they would, completed the job a day early, and cleaned up thoroughly (even a mess on the side that we had left). The "and more" was Dave Seip going to 5 different places to secure a hard-to-find item because of the age of our home. What we made a fiasco, they turned into a job VERY well done. Thanks CAM!
