Cold-formed steel (CFS) framing has a proven track record of providing energy-saving and sustainability benefits for buildings of all shapes and sizes. CFS framing can also be the primary structural element in mid-rise construction and meets all of the required building codes and standards.
In this webinar we will explore the use of cold-formed steel assemblies in mid-rise construction. It is intended to provide instruction on the capacity of cold-formed steel framed assemblies in both structural and non-structural applications found in mid-rise buildings.
Learning Objectives:- Explore the capacity of cold-formed steel structures to meet the requirements for mid-rise construction.
- Investigate the building codes requirements for cold-formed steel in mid-rise construction.
- Discuss some basic detailing techniques for designing cold-formed steel assemblies.
- Examine actual examples of mid-rise structures using cold-formed steel assemblies.

This presentation explores the science behind wall systems and the tangible benefits of incorporating this technology into building structures. There is an emphasis on the differences between air barriers and vapor barriers and which is the best-given climate and wall assembly.
Learning Objectives:
- Explore the science of wall systems, including the potential impact on energy savings and the beneficial health effects of controlling moisture migration into living environments.
- Determine the proper wall system to use for a given climate in order to limit air and moisture movement and ensure the comfort and safety of building occupants.
- Define wall system terms, specifically the difference between an air barrier and a vapor barrier.
- Explore the detrimental impact of moisture infiltration into building materials and the safety concerns inherent in unsafe structures.
