I am a senior at Texas Tech Univ. and am currently working on several research papers related to using cold formed steel members in residential framing and was wondering if any one knew of good sources of information. I already have looked in several design handbooks and the HUD journal. I’m looking for the most up to date information I can find regarding labor times and percentages compared with wood framing, initial and long run costs, enviornmental info., span tables,insulation methods, etc. I already have quite a bit of this information but I wanted to see if I overlooked any sources since this could become a final thesis for my graduation. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
