Cost Stability: CFS system use galvanized steel for its components. Steel
as commodity shown historically has minimum price fluctuation. There
is less concrete volume use in FCF designed floor system compare to
traditional methods. For interior and exterior walls there is no need of

masonry units so price spikes in raw material such as gravel or cement
Benefits of wont effect CFS type of construction.

Cold Form Light weight: Steel has the highest strength-to-weight ratio in all

construction material. CFS building system is lighter about 50% compare
Steel Framing to concrete sys. Lighter building system means saving in construction

System cost and maintenance. Saving on foundation cost and seismic design
and on Issues related to building settlement such as cracking on interior
and exterior walls.

Panelized: Walls assembled at FCF plant in controlled environment
efficiently and accurately. Dimensionally correct components increase
building quality.

Speed of Construction: Faster construction schedule by 40% compare to
traditional methods. Crew of 10 can erect 350m2 of building in one
shift per day!

Modular Buildings: CFS building system is most suitable for mobile type
buildings as temporarily accommodations such oil and gas field, natural
disaster shelter, solder barracks, police station and many more.

Seismic Design: Steel is ductile material which tend to bend and not
break like concrete. In seismic events, lighter building system, ductility
of steel and flexibility CFS connections keep building intact and save
lives.

Simple Assembly: us.ng pre-fabricated light structure components with
small tools make it easy to handle and construct at jobsite.

Skilled Labor Shortage: all wall panels are coded from plant and match
floor layouts so it's easy to install at site with simple training despite
language brier and level of education.

Other Crews Schedule Overlap: one of the unique characteristic of CFS
system Is Independency from too many props during construction like
concrete system. Open space on every floor during the construction
allows other crews such as mechanical and electrical follow the
superstructure team exactly one floor below and finish project faster to
achieve earlier occupancy.

Safer Job Site: As soon as exterior wall panels erected, become fall-
protection barrier for workers. Window openings blocked by temporary
steel straps for more protection from plant.
