SFIA 107: Design of Hybrid Systems with Cold-Formed Steel


A webinar of the SFIA Forum  for CFS industry outreach and Input

May 26, 2022 2:00 - 3:00pm Eastern

Although the structural frame of a building represents only 10 to 20 percent of the total construction cost, the choice of material for the frame can have dramatic consequences for subsequent processes. In some cases, the use of multiple materials – called hybrid construction – is desirable because it takes advantage of their unique performance characteristics. This also creates special conditions that the design professional must consider when developing designs for a hybrid system. This program identifies those special situations and provides guidance on how to deal with them.

This course is registered with AIA CES and participants will earn 1 HSW LU. Credit(s) earned on completion of this course will be reported to AIA CES for AIA members.
