Steel Panel Truss TV
Follow our steel build, step by step. Each episode walks you through one real stage of a 100% steel frame project, from the slab to the finished structure. Watch the full series on our YouTube channel.
#08 ZIP SYSTEM
This is the stage where the steel frame starts to get enclosed. See how ZIP System sheathing is installed over the structure, combining structural panels with an integrated air and water barrier to create a stronger, more protected building envelope before dry in.
#06 HARDWARE
Can a steel frame home withstand hurricanes? It's not just the steel. See how wind loads are calculated to Florida and ASCE 7-22 standards, and how every connection, from anchors to Simpson Strong-Tie® connectors, is engineered to work as one system.
#04 RECEPTION
The first trucks arrive. With the slab curing, the first steel panels and floor joists are unloaded and organized for installation, while production keeps moving at the factory.
#02 PRODUCTION
From design to reality. Watch how panels, trusses and structural components are fabricated with FrameCAD precision to speed up installation and reduce errors on site.
#07 COLUMNS
Why does this build need steel columns? See how engineered HSS columns carry and transfer loads in the porch area, placed exactly where the project's engineering requires, never at random.
#05 INSTALLATION
The installation phase begins. Because the panels are pre-engineered and built in advance, the structure goes up faster and cleaner, using non-combustible steel designed for long-term strength.
#03 DELIVERY
While the site was being prepared, the panels were already in production. See how the complete steel package is delivered straight to the job site, ready to start a 100% steel frame home.
#01 SLAB
A steel structure doesn't start with steel, it starts with the slab. See how layout, levels and underground systems are prepared before the concrete is poured, setting the accuracy for the entire project.
