One Training Series.

Two Sessions.

Session 1

Are you using best practices for Cold Formed Steel Design? This course explains how to design and build more effectively with Cold Formed Steel, and covers advancements in Building Information Modeling (BIM) as it applies to this field.

Session 2

Are you ready? Big changes are coming soon in the Progressive Collapse code. This training will help you be prepared, and equip you to design effectively for progressive collapse, blast, earthquakes, and other extreme loads.

5 Reasons to Attend

Top Speakers in CFS & Progressive Collapse

Some of the brightest minds in Light Steel Framing and Progressive Collapse who have lectured on these topics all over the world, and taught at various universities.

Free Software for CFS & ELS

6 Months of SteelSmart Framer ($1,500 value), 30 days of Extreme Loading for Structures, and 30 days of SteelSmart System.

Network with People in your Industry
