You might just find the manufacturer to send a guy and local building surveyor to teach you to make it meet your country's standard Because i worked for a builder who used similar product but he followed the original plan to build it. Local building surveyor never seen anything like this so he sticked to the local building code, did not pass the frame inspection until 30% more support for everything from sub floor to roof was added. cost additional $50K and 5 months for ordering more material to put them on. No one knows how to build it so the first townhouse frame took the longest and has the worst quality... However, stand up the frame is just step 1, you will find much more trouble at the following stage. Most local trades work in the industry only worked on timber frames for everything from external cladding to internal fixing. Only a few exceptions uses strews, most of them will have a nail gun to shoot off their products from building wraps to cladding to skirting, all nail guns. When they see a metal frame house... 9 out of 10 just walks away, the last one will add 50% to 80% for the quote because its just too much headache for them to change their method form nails to screws. Conclusion: Yes, you might save some money and time to use these light gauge steel for a house frame, but do not be the first guys in your area, you gonna pay so much extra later. If your area already have a few buildings using it, then you have more chance to actually save some money and time.
Good advice above, sure. But I build everything, & if your crew is baffled from a switch screws-from-gun nails...its time you bult with "less-ignorant" people! :-) Metal framing's been happening for decades, nothing new, really. BUT...I think the next "revolution" will come in connections. And reducing exterior Temperature transmission thru the framing. I'll use metal on my next ECOhome, 4sure! Buona fortuna
