CEU COURSE OFFERING

Reconsidering Cold-Formed Steel: Sustainability, Safety, and Job Site Efficiencies

MW007

Cold-formed steel is a sustainable and cost-effective framing solution that has been used for over a century in commercial and residential construction. This course will re-examine the material from a modern lens, exploring the many environmental and construction benefits of cold-formed steel, how its manufacturing process has become more sustainable, and how it saves time and labor on jobsites. We will also discover cold-formed steel framing products that improve jobsite safety, sound transmission, and fire resistance so you can design projects that are both resilient and comfortable for building occupants. Credits: 1 LU/HSW
  • Understand what cold-formed steel is and the numerous environmental and construction benefits of this widely-used material.
  • Discuss the cold-formed steel manufacturing process and the industry’s move from extractive to circular steel production.
  • Explore the improving sustainability of steel, including innovations that boost recyclability, reduce energy use, and curtail emissions.
  • Examine cold-formed steel framing products that can help project teams build safer buildings more efficiently.
