Is steel much different than wood framing methods?
Steel framing uses the same layout, spacing and general framing techniques used in traditional wood framing. The only difference lies in fastening and cutting. Instead of nails and nail guns, you fasten steel framing with screws and drills. (Sheathing boards can still be fastened with pneumatic nailing guns.) You cut cold formed steel with a carbide or metal cutting blade or plasma torch. 25.
