6 Framing Framing Link to for information on framing Wood Framing Wood framing most commonly used in home construction. Plenty of skilled contractors with wood framing experience. Can be easily cut and fitted. Preferable for interior design when hanging fixtures and decorations. Steel Framing Steel framing growing in popularity, especially in tornado and hurricane prone areas. Stronger than wood. Can withstand some wind surges. Resistant to fire, mildew and molds, and wood-eating insects. Geometrically perfect for corners and window/door frames. Skilled contractors may be limited in your area. Framing Considerations Once the framing starts, it can become very expensive for a structural change. It is very important that you plan your renovation project up-front before framing: See size dimensions page 2 Plan for all doors. Plan for all windows. Plan for all closets and ample storage areas. Plan for all room dimensions. Plan for all fireplaces Plan for all outside venting systems Plan for all stairways and home entry. Inspect spacing for HVAC, plumbing, and utility lines. more information at: 6
