New features and releases on LGSF Market. In this article we walk through what we have learned on real projects, with numbers you can use.
Why it matters
Cold-formed steel (CFS) framing rewards preparation. Every stud, track and nog is cut, punched and labelled by a machine, so a decision made in the model shows up on site exactly as drawn — good or bad. Getting the inputs right is the cheapest quality control you will ever buy.
Teams that treat the model as the single source of truth typically cut on-site rework by more than half and finish framing in days rather than weeks.
What to do next
Start small: pick one wall type, run it end to end, and measure the time it takes. Once the team trusts the output, scale up to a full house. If you want a second pair of eyes on your model, upload it to LGSF Market and our engineers will review it.
