Galvanized steel stud and floor joist systems resist rust, rot and termites. Steel will not warp, twist or split. It eliminates time-consuming cutting, and it's 30 to 50 percent lighter than wood. Steel's stable nature yields straighter walls and level floors with little or no waste using wood-sized standard or custom-length studs and joists. Steel studs in interior walls can cost $2 less per stud than wood, and steel floor joists usually cost less than dimensional wood products. Installation is also less expensive in these applications.
