| Environmentally friendly; 100% recyclable. | |
| Helps to earn LEED points. | |
| Produces less scrap & waste (2% vs. 20%-lumber) | |
| Offers consistent material quality because it is produced in strict accordance with national standards, and there is no regional variance in composition. | |
| Non combustible. | |
| Dimensionally stable; does not expand/contract due to moisture content. | |
| Fewer workers are needed for framing. CFM framing can weigh only 1/3 as much as conventional materials. Computer engineered metal frames reduce field cutting almost completely. | |
| Less probability of damage in high wind load areas due to stronger connections. | |
| One of the highest "strength to weight" ratios of any building material employed today. | |
| Does not require any chemical treatment as wood does, it is impervious to termites, dry rot, etc. | |
| With proper insulation, steel buildings have less heat loss due to steels dimensional stability. | |
| Offers a high strength, safe structure with lower maintenance and a slower aging process. | |
| CFM lasts forever, where as wood is prone to rot and decay from the moment it is cut. | |
| Most importantly, it is made in the USA. |
