Understanding the Basics of Steel Framing
Steel framing is a popular choice in modern construction due to its durability, strength, and resistance to environmental factors like termites and rot. Unlike traditional wood framing, steel framing uses a network of steel components to create the structure of a building.
Understanding the basics of steel framing involves knowing the different types of steel members, such as studs, tracks, and joists, as well as the methods for joining them together. This knowledge is crucial for ensuring the structural integrity of your project.

Wooden nails have a rich history dating back to ancient times. They were first used as a primitive innovation by early humans to join pieces of wood together. These early nails were simply sharpened sticks or wooden pegs that were hammered into place. The simplicity and effectiveness of wooden nails made them a popular choice for construction and woodworking projects.
Throughout history, wooden nails have been used in various cultures and civilizations. They were a common feature in ancient Egyptian and Roman construction, as well as in traditional Japanese carpentry. The use of wooden nails continued well into the Middle Ages, where they were widely employed in the construction of timber-framed buildings. This early form of joinery laid the foundation for the development of modern woodworking techniques and fastening options such as BECK’s LIGNOLOC® wooden nails.
