manufacturers and suppliers. As we mark the seventh anniversary of the Hawaii Pacific Steel Framing Alliance, Inc. (formerly the Hawaii Steel Alliance), we are offering this valuable and comprehensive resource directory as a one-stop guidebook for those wanting to stay abreast of the latest information on products, services and technologies in residential and commercial steel-framed construction. I’d like to share the success of the Alliance’s campaign for light gauge steel framed construction in Hawaii and the Pacific Rim. As a catalyst for growth, the Alliance serves as an industry promoter for manufacturers, developers, builders and design professionals who have direct interest in furthering the development of steel framing. We recently participated in a number of trade shows, organized training seminars and recently concluded the 2004 Pacific Rim Steel Framing Conference with participants from Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the U.S. mainland. 2003 was a very good year for construction — over the generally healthy activity in the previous years — and 2004 is simply booming with a tremendous five-year forecast for housing here in Hawaii. HSA helps our membership implement the latest advances of steel-framed construction to the forefront of home building. At present our membership has increased and expanded. A number of building code officials and inspectors have even affiliated with the Alliance and a chapter on the Big Island has been formed with more chapters expected this year from the other islands. More people and companies are realizing the unbeatable benefits of steel framing: creating new jobs, increased income and greater value given to the customer over the life of the structure. Read what these builders say about why they frame their projects with steel (see inside). From the Leeward side to Windward side, from Mauka (mountain) to Makai (sea), you will see several projects being framed with steel. Today Hawaii still is the established worldwide leader in per-capita steel-framed housing. The Alliance looks forward to offering more new ways to engage all players in the building industry to the future of construction — steel framing. Pictures and words alone are not enough. E komo mai ... come and let the people of Hawaii share with you our experiences with steel framing and the islands of Aloha. Help us spread the word about our Alliance and the benefits from all that we have to offer. Call the HSA office for more information at (808) 485-1400, or visit our web sites at www.hawaiisteel.com and, nationally, www.steelframingalliance.com.

Congratulations to the Hawaii Pacific Steel Framing Alliance on this year’s Resource Directory and its leadership in the steel framing industry. If market share was the only signal of accomplishment, then Hawaii certainly is a beacon to the rest of the world. But there are many other ways to demonstrate success. The directory in which this letter appears is evidence of how well the HSA has marshaled the expertise and assets of an industry to serve local builders. Programs like the Pacifc Rim Conference, with its attendees from several continents, further demonstrates the recognition given HSA for its know-how and achievement in building a market for steel framing. As the market leader in Hawaii, there will certainly be challenges and challengers in the coming years. The national Steel Framing Alliance continues to focus on the equipping of builders, owners and design professionals with a deep pool of resources that meets the demand for training, best practices and programs designed to create cost advantages. The HSA is in the prime position to blend these tools with the unique skills and market intelligence of local members to produce a potent force that has already made steel the preferred framing material in Hawaii. We look forward to a continuing close relationship with the HSA and a continuing effort to help make buildings better with steel framing.
Sincerely,
Larry Williams SFA President

Steel Framing in Hawaii and the Pacific Rim he Hawaii Pacific Steel Framing Alliance (HSA) is a 501(c) (6) nonprofit organization established in May 1997 that encourages and promotes the widespread, practical and economic use of light gauge steel framing for residential and light commercial construction in the Pacific Rim. Before the 1990s few individuals believed in the benefits of steel framing for Hawaii homeowners. Year after year, steel framing gained acceptance among
T
designers and contractors, not only in Hawaii but also in other countries in the Pacific Rim. On April 7, 2001, HSA formally changed its name to the Hawaii Pacific Steel Framing Alliance — a move in response to the association’s mission to expand to AsiaPacific countries. The HSA engages in training programs to help carpenters learn more about steel framing; creates new technical resources for design professionals, contractors and framers and develops new field training and

August 2004 Hawaii Pacific Steel Framing Alliance 7
By Mardie C. Torres, HSA Executive Director
here is a very short period every 200 years when the world suddenly changes. This is one of those periods when the old solutions no longer seem logical. Even in construction, one can clearly see new priorities. Among these is steel framing — a cost-efficient and environmentally sound solution for building homes. Steel has been used successfully for years in the commercial and industrial market for reasons of strength, durability and stability. It, however, is gaining ground in new markets; where residential construction players have continually sought for alternative or non-combustible materials, and with homeowners, for better quality homes. Once used mainly for one and two-story structures, light gauge steel is seeing increased use in load-bearing elements for structures as tall as seven and eight stories. Evidently, this phenomenon has gotten the attention of steel, tool and fastener manufacturers. In the past eight years, it has become 200 percent easier to work with light gauge steel because of developments by the industry itself. This growth is destined to continue as other critical elements fall into place, including the proliferation of codes and standards, introduction of new tools and construction techniques, maturation of the truss and components industry and an expanding in the ranks of knowledgeable and experienced framing and design professionals.
T
Steel as a Construction Material Steel offers superior performance characteristics and environmentally friendly properties. Steel has the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any building material (five times stronger than wood and one-third less weight). A steel framed home is a long lasting dwelling that does not feed termites, mold or other organisms. A steel stud has absolutely consistent dimensions and won’t warp or bend after a wall, floor or roof is assembled. It is durable against rust and doesn’t expand or contract with moisture content. The recyclability of steel products is a key
component in the concept of sustainable construction. Steel framing uses 25 percent minimum recycled content, has 100 percent recyclability, provides life cycle energy savings due to air tightness of a steel building and a long structure life, reducing the need for future building resource(zero depletion of iron resources). Homes built with steel provide a safer environment for inhabitants with a lower probability of sustaining foundation problems, earthquake and high wind damage.
Steel: an Intelligent Choice While significant issues face homebuilders and homeowners in today’s marketplace, burgeoning new technologies are now available that can help mitigate these risky trends affecting the growth and stability of the homebuilding industry. The use of cold-formed steel members as a building alternative is an intelligent choice with benefits to not only the environment. The continuing evolution of steel construction means that engineers, architects and contractors have more choices than ever. Light gauge steel framing for walls, floors, roofs and other applications is being adopted in several growth markets of new residential construction. To stimulate the use of light gauge steel in Hawaii and in the Pacific Rim, the Hawaii Pacific Steel Framing Alliance (HSA) was established in 1997. Due to its efforts, over 70 percent of all new home starts on Oahu in 2003 used steel studs, up from 15 percent in 1997. Everyday, the business of construction gets more complex. Builders and contractors are a demanding bunch. The more product lines are added, the more space is needed in a warehouse or yard. With up to 60 subcontractors to manage on each job site, constant changes in the building codes, consumer demands for more design flexibility, rising insurance rates, and diminishing material quality and supply, among others, builders face challenges at every turn. Steel provides a better alternative. During a time of continued industry consolidation, where market share held by the top ten builders has doubled in the past
five years to about 50 percent, the need to meet such challenges becomes even more imminent. Consequently, the time for the industry to learn efficient new ways to build quality homes is now.
Steel: More Than a Solution Steel framing is more than a solution for high quality, cost-effective homebuilding. For reasons of strength, durability, versatility and economy, steel is a universal building material. It is the gateway to streamlining construction business, providing for greater design flexibility, helping reduce insurance premiums and improving the quality of construction, among other things. With more training and education, HSA continues to help create better, more efficient building solutions as well as train skilled manpower. We have been building momentum for steel across the state and strive to assume the world leadership role. HSA is ready to campaign and engage everyone to the benefits and advantages of steel framing through continual promotion and networking with the players in the construction industry. The secret power of the Alliance is in its people — from builders to manufacturers and everyone in between. Our strength comes from our member-companies who are driving the new economy forward. We are a community, a library, and a marketplace. I wish to invite everyone to Hawaii — a place where commercial buildings, hotels, houses and schools are constructed of safe and cost-efficient steel framing. Builders across the state of Hawaii are constructing all types of steel framed homes: multi-family developments, retirement homes and singlefamily residences. With a growing market share and a ready workforce in place, steel framing is poised for continued growth.

Getting Started With Steel:
The Next Step he Hawaii Pacific Steel Framing Alliance continues to be an excellent resource for information and publications about steel framing. There are innovative steel framing products available now that can save you time and money. You can now build a steel framed home using your current set of plans, without huge engineering bills, spending a lot of extra time with your plan checkers and building inspectors or manually doing a take-off and estimate that might take up to three days. And you can also get reliable technical and “how-to” information at the click of a mouse or phone call for little to no investment. In last year’s directory, we recommended several items to get you started with steel. 1. Consider using steel framing products for one application at a time. 2. Look for a skilled carpenter in your area who has worked with steel before. 3. If there are no skilled carpenters in your area, consider training a crew. 4. Get a copy of the new Craftsman book “Steel-Frame House Construction”. 5. Get the newest ANSI-accredited Prescriptive Method. 6. Get a copy of the new Low-Rise Residential Construction Details. 7. Know the right “STUF”: Standard Steel Member Sizes. In this report, we are adding more items to our recommendations. Technology and continuing education have brought the price of production in line with what builders and homeowners currently would pay to use traditional framing systems — for walls, roof/trusses, and floors. A Priority: First join the Hawaii Pacific Steel Framing Alliance, Inc. Once you become an HSA member, you are automatically a national Steel Framing Alliance member. By working on a local level, more market development happens where the rubber meets the road. Learn from others who have real-world experience they can impart,

important tools: a commercial grade versaclutch screwgun (5 to 6 amps, with a 0-2,500 rpm variable speed or more and reversible — not a drill), a swivel head shear, a four-foot magnetic level and chalk line. Add a set of locking C-clamps to hold the layers of steel together. Having the right tools to start your venture into steel framing will mean the success of your experience and your willingness to expand your horizons beyond the most basic tasks.
4. Consider Attending the STUD University
Visit www.steelframingalliance.com and view the list of steel framing manufacturers, and preengineered systems suppliers to get an idea of what material suppliers may be in your area. Talk with your local building material supply dealers; they may be interested in working with you to order the material you need and stock light gauge steel in the future.
2. Start Smart Start smart by bringing steel to your jobsite at an economical price point. This will give you and your crew the opportunity to get the feel for framing with steel. Details are available for connecting steel-to-steel, steel-to-wood and insulated concrete forms (ICFs) to steel.
3. Get the Right Tools Contrary to popular belief, workers wanting to add steel framing to their repertoire of skills can outfit their tool belts for under $400. Anyone who is serious about steel framing can accomplish the task with a few

Industry Comments “We wanted to send a clear message to the community about what our alliance is all about. The growth of this organization exemplifies the strength of the Alliance.” — Wayne Lincoln, director and founding HSA president “Our alliance is rapidly growing. We are expanding into Asia and around the Pacific Rim.” — Bob Lazo, former HSA president “Several U.S. companies use our Hawaii projects as working laboratories, testing out new steel products.” — Art Linn, director and former HSA president “These shows give us an excellent opportunity to reach out to the rest of the state and show others what the HSA is all about and what it can do for them.” — Mike Fernandez, former HSA president “The Alliance has had a tremendous impact on the way we build homes here [in Hawaii], in a very positive way. Before, you didn’t talk to your competitors, or the engineers, or the architects. Now we’re all here together making this thing happen. People are coming together to make it better.” — Marcus Gillespie, a local and national Alliance member and president of Sunrise Construction “Advances in steel for residential applications are among the recent technological developments that ensure home builders in the new millennium will be constructing housing in a variety of new ways. Steel has become a viable option for home building and is contributing to the exciting new efficiencies that our buyers expect to find in today’s marketplace.” — Gary Garczynski, 2002 National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) president “We’ve shown builders on the mainland that steel is in their future. And that future is not far off. Both steel and BuiltGreen™ are quickly becoming staple products of Hawaii’s home building industry. Builders are using cutting-edge building technology as well as products and methods that conserve resources, use solar energy, or have extended durability and low maintenance requirements, like steel.” — Karen Nakamura, CEO of Building Industry Association of Hawaii “Light gauge steel framing provides a termite-proof solution to framing a home. Not only will you be reducing the potential toxicity in the home by cutting back on treated lumber, steel offers the advantage of having significant recycled content and of being highly recyclable.” — from “the Guide to Resource-Efficient Building in Hawaii” produced by the Hawaii Advanced Building Technologies program (HABiT) “We are working hard in Hawaii to expand and diversify our economy, to

Steel Framing is a Natural for
“Green Building” By Gregory L. Crawford, vice president, operations; Steel Recycling Institute, Pittsburgh, Penn. uilders around the country are becoming increasingly more interested in learning about green building and incorporating these practices into their projects. Steel framing is a natural for green building. Homeowners, builders and steel framers alike are learning how steel is green and are reaping the benefits. What is “green” anyway? Green might be defined in a number of ways. For this discussion, green describes actions or materials judged as good for the environment, by saving energy and conserving other natural resources, including habitat. Since all human activity impacts the environment, comparative assertions generally include the premise that green means less harm. Reviewing its functional and green benefits, steel is the superior framing material. It is durable for long life, with less replacement and thus less resources. It has recycled content and is recyclable at end of life. Easily manufactured into desired shapes

and lengths, waste is minimized and remnant steel framing is recyclable. Steel is lighter for regional and local transportation. It is roll formed on or near the job. Dimensionally stable, straight and true, steel framing provides a tighter building envelope over the life of the structure, reducing air infiltration and HVAC losses. We know that steel is impervious to termites and does not support combustion in a fire. Energy is needed to make iron and scrap into a superior, durable product. However, recycled content lowers embodied energy in new steel and, at end of life, that energy is further amortized over future generations of new steel. Steel’s recycled content is at www.recycle-steel.org. There is no product that does not come without environmental burdens from harvest, manufacture and transportation, all of which consume energy, resources and extensive habitat. Sometimes raised as an issue, steel’s thermal conductance is insignificant in Hawaii’s temperate climate. Elsewhere, insulation or a

thermal break eliminates it. Beyond green, steel is sustainable, preserving quality of life for future generations. Sometimes steel gets a "bad rap" when energy consumption is compared. For example, the ATHENA LCA includes 20year-old data for steel technology scrapped long ago. More positively, newer Life-Cycle Stressor-Effects Assessment (LCSEA) measures "ecosystem disruption" (alterations in terrestrial and aquatic habitat and loss of key species). In the meantime, with all these benefits, steel framing remains a natural for green building!

Steeling the 11th BIA Home Building & Remodeling Show The HSA participated in the Building Industry Association of Hawaii’s 11th annual Home Building and Remodeling Show in February 2004 at the Neal Blaisdell Exhibition Hall in three ways: the second SteelMan competition, the award winning Alliance booth and a seminar on light gauge steel framing.
The contestants of this year’s SteelMan Competition, held during the BIA Home Building & Remodeling Show in February, were: Chris Krainer, Coastal Construction; Todd Letchford, Akamai Homes and John Williams, Sunrise Construction, winner of the event.
The 2004 Pacific Rim Steel Framing Conference held on April 22-25, 2004 at the Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort was a huge success not only for the Alliance but also for Hawaii. About 260 participants attended the various (20 concurrent) seminars, Build & Buy Green Expo as well as the scholarship golf tournament during the conference, which was held in conjunction with the Build & Buy Green 2004 Conference & Expo. They also were able to engage in networking opportunities, educational programs, jobsite tours and dinner receptions during the four-day conference. Though a significant number came from Hawaii, several attendees also came from the U.S. mainland, Australia and New Zealand. Top caliber speakers and presenters spoke of the present status of the steel framing and related industries, latest updates on research and studies, innovations and technologies and appropriate tips from the builders themselves, including those
At the second SteelMan Competition, each of the three steel-framing competitors had to build a 10-by-8 foot storage module. They were judged on speed, quality of work, adherence to design specifications and appearance. The contestants were John Williams, Sunrise Construction (winner); Todd Letchford, Akamai Homes; and Chris Krainer of Coastal Construction. The Alliance booth featured consumerrelated information on the benefits and topics for using steel framing. Some of the information to be presented were corrosion, termites, aesthetics, fire, recycling and enhanced architectural design. The HSA booth was manned by HSA and LGSEA members. HSA Education & Training Committee Chair Sam Galante of Steel Truss & Panel also conducted a seminar on light gauge steel structures, its benefits and advantages. Mardie Torres, HSA executive director, was enthused about the Alliance’s
Judges of the event were: John Cheung, BIA president; Mike Kasamoto, LGSEA-Hawaii president; Doug Pearson, Castle & Cooke; Sam Galante, Steel Truss & Panel LLC; and Ibbotson Kellet, Special Inspection Consultants, Inc. participation in BIA since 1998. “Every year’s responses have been tremendously overwhelming. As a volunteer-based organization, we were able to receive everything needed from material to labor to truss products, down to the last screw. There was a noticeable consumer interest in steel framed houses, as people kept returning to the HSA booth wanting to know more about steel framing benefits.”
International Conference on Steel Framing dealing with military projects. For the first time, three major organizations had joined together (Hawaii’s Department of Business Economic Development and Tourism, Building Industry Association of Hawaii and the Alliance) in organizing the Build & Buy Green 2004 Conference. Many thanks for the membercompanies who helped sponsor the conference as well as the volunteers who shared their valuable time and efforts to make the 2004 PACRIM Conference the most significant event in 2004 for the steel industry in Hawaii. We are optimistic about co-organizing similar activities (e.g. 2005 Build & Buy Green Conference) in the future. Among the participants who attended both conferences were officials of the National Association of Steel-Framed Housing of Australia (NASH); Gordon Barratt, chairman of New Zealand - NASH and Kenneth Watson, NASH national executive director. For years now, we had discussed a possible mission to Australia (Melbourne and Sydney) for possible exchange of best practices, technology as well as networking among players in the industry.

The Steel Framing Alliance The Steel Framing Alliance (SFA) is an international organization leading the growing use of light gauge steel framing in commercial and residential construction through marketing and market development initiatives, research and testing programs, training and education, and the support of affiliated organizations within the steel and construction industries. The SFA and its four local alliances (California, Hawaii Pacific, Texas, and Mid-Atlantic), strengthened by close working relationships with the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), the NAHB Research Center, PATH, HUD and others, have made huge strides toward fully enabling the residential construction market for steel. Product standards, prescriptive building methods, adoption of the codes, and training code officials, have collectively leveled the playing field for steel. At the same time, innovative steel framing products and effective training programs have helped to make steel an economically viable option for today’s homebuilders and homebuyers.

provide a higher quality of life for our families, and at the same time protect our precious environment. We support projects by the steel framing industry that focus on the construction of safer and more reliable homes.” — Linda Lingle, governor, State of Hawaii “Our steel framing industry has grown steadily and developed an expanded pool of qualified practitioners. Pictures and words alone are not enough. E komo mai ... come and let the people of Hawaii share with you their experiences with steel framing.” — Doug Pearson, past president HSA “Castle & Cooke was the first developer in Hawaii to commit to steel framing in all of our residential construction. Straight, termite and fireproof, minimal waste, strong and long lasting. It’s a no brainier. Steel is the best product for our homes and customers.” — Harry Saunders, president of Castle & Cooke Hawaii “Steel is straight and true...every piece. Precise uniformity is maintained at all times.
This provides straighter walls. Finally, steel is assembled with screws. Screw pullout strength doesn’t weaken over time. Screws in steel don’t split or crack the studs, weakening the joint.” Bud Waters, executive vice president, Hunt Building Corporation “Steel is a uniform material with precise tolerances. The steel studs maintain their shape and size and will not shrink, which means no nail pops in the drywall. There are also no knots, warping, twisting, splitting or cracking. Steel framing members will not add fuel to a fire and since one-third of all home fires start in the wall cavities, there is nothing to burn.” Sam Galante, president/owner of Steel Truss & Panel, LLC “Steel also is a lighter material to work with. When you’re building things, it’s about manpower and with lighter materials, workers can be more productive.” Marcus Gillespie, president of Sunrise Construction, Inc. “Haseko is committed to being a long term player in housing in Hawaii and as

such has to build a better home. The biggest single reason for choosing steel goes directly to the life expectancy and longevity of a home due to its superior protection against termites. The fact that the termites are so threatening in Hawaii year round makes steel, I think, the only alternative for a builder that’s planning to stay around for a while. Our plan is to build 4,860 homes at Ocean Pointe, all of them out of steel.” — Adam Sutton, vice president of construction for Haseko Construction, Inc. “Schuler Homes was one of the first builders in Hawaii to use steel framing and initiate the steel trend. To this day, Schuler Homes is proud to say that they use steel in almost all of their homes from the lowest priced home in Maili to the high end in Hawaii Kai. The structural integrity of steel framing and steel tie downs, as well as its termite resistance, insure a sturdy, quality product.” — Frank Payne, vice president of operations, Schuler Homes, Inc., a D.R. Horton Company
