OUR PROCESS
A Process Built on Precision & Trust
Our integrated 6-step process builds confidence and elimiates risk for our partners.
01
Design & Engineering
Prefabrication in our controlled facility dramatically compresses on-site schedules and reduces labour requirements.
02
Client & Consultant Review
We provide detailed models and shop drawings for your team’s review, comment, and formal approval, ensuring full alignment before fabrication begins.
03
Quality Controlled Fabrication
Approved digital models feed directly into our automated roll-formers in a state-of-the-art facility, ensuring every component is fabricated to exact specifications.
04
Sequenced Delivery
Components are inspected, bundled, and clearly labelled. We load trucks in sequence to match your site schedule, ensuring a smooth off-load and installation process.
05
Professional Installation
Our experienced, certified crews install the entire CFS system efficiently and safely. We can also provide a technical site specialist to support your own installation team.
06
Inspection & Sign-Off
We facilitate and coordinate with third-party, independent inspectors to ensure all work meets or exceeds code, providing you with a fully signed-off structural package.

THE TOTAL BUILDING ADVANTAGE
Why Cold-Formed Steel?
CFS translates to tangible project benefits for developers, GC’s and engineers.
Speed of Construction
Precision engineered CFS design to meet / exceed all applicable codes and consultant drawings.
Design Flexibility
Achieve greater architectural freedom with long spans and custom shapes that are impossible with traditional materials.
Cost-Effectiveness
Reduced schedules, lower insurance rates (non-combustible), and lighter foundation needs provide significant overall project savings.
Strength & Durability
A high strength-to-weight ratio ensures structures are resilient, seismic-resistant and built to last.
Precision & Quality
Machine-fabricated components eliminate on-site guesswork, reduce waste, and ensure every piece is perfect.
Fire & Pest Resistance
CFS is non-combustible and immune to rot, mold, and termite infestation, ensuring building longevity and safety.
