Why Steel Framing is Essential in Hawaii & California
Engineered to withstand pests, humidity, earthquakes, and wildfires.
Hurricane Protection
Hawaii's hurricane seasons demand superior structural integrity. Steel framing provides:
Engineered wind uplift resistance up to 200+ mph
Continuous load path from foundation to roof
No organic failure points that compromise structural integrity during storms
Wildfire Defense
California's fire risk requires non-combustible construction. Steel framing offers:
Class A fire rating - highest fire resistance classification
No fuel contribution - steel won't ignite or spread flames
Structural integrity maintenance even under extreme heat exposure
Seismic Performance
Both regions face earthquake risk requiring flexible, strong structures. Steel provides:
Class A fire rating - highest fire resistance classification
No fuel contribution - steel won't ignite or spread flames
Structural integrity maintenance even under extreme heat exposure
