| Custom Build Your Steel Frame Home |
Why Build With Steel?
- Steel doesn't warp, crack, split, shrink, swell, shift, or bow. It remains
one of the strongest most durable building materials today. - A Steel framed home can be built to withstand up to 155-200 m/hr
winds providing increased protection from hurricanes and
tornadoes. - Steel is non-combustible, so a steel frame won't contribute to the
spread of a fire. - A Steel frame is 40% more energy efficient because the depth of the
steel beams provide more room for insulation. - Because a steel frame can withstand so many natural elements, it will
reduce your cost on maintenance as well as insurance premiums. - Building with steel is better for the environment. A steel framed home
can be made with steel from 6 recycled cars; while it takes an acre of
full grown trees to build a 2,000 sq ft. house.

About Steel Framing
| A custom steel frame home offers the most design flexibility. With steel, the square footage is unlimited. There is possibility for a wide range of designs. The frame of a Build Plus/ Awe Steel home fully supports the structure creating no need for interior load- bearing walls. You can add as few or as many walls as you like. You can create very spacious rooms without any interior support structures and can be up to 30 ft. wide or larger. A wood framed home doesn't offer that kind of flexibility. |
| There are thousands of steel framed homes, but you would never know because they can be built to look like any traditional home. With Build Plus, you can make your steel frame look any way you want because we will take you through the process from design to completion! |
