ICC Certified

Engineered CFS Systems.
Built Faster and Smarter.

From plan review and CFS design to panel modeling, precision fabrication, delivery and field installation, Metalleve develops coordinated cold-formed steel packages for residential, commercial and institutional construction.

Who We Work With

A specialized CFS partner for your project team.

Metalleve works alongside contractors, builders, developers, architects, engineers and owners to define, coordinate and deliver the CFS scope—without taking control of the broader construction contract.

  • General Contractors
    Add a specialized CFS team for coordination, fabrication and field execution while retaining control of the overall project.
  • Builders
    Receive a fabrication-ready CFS package aligned with approved project requirements and construction sequencing.
  • Developers
    Establish a clearer path for the CFS scope from early review through production and delivery.
  • Architects & Engineers
    Coordinate CFS layouts, openings and interfaces with structural steel and building systems before they become field conflicts.
  • Owners
    Engage a specialized partner to support scope definition, technical development and project delivery.
  • Modular Partners
    Integrate custom CFS wall and ceiling packages into modular production and facility assembly.
Our Role

Your team retains control of the overall project. Metalleve supports the defined CFS scope through technical coordination, fabrication and, when contracted, field installation.

How It Works

From contract documents to a coordinated, field-ready CFS package.

A coordinated path from project intake through detailing, fabrication, quality control, delivery and installation—so your CFS structural scope stays clear from the first review to the jobsite.

Project Review & Scope Definition

We review framing extents, openings, supports, connection points, movement conditions and interfaces with structural steel, foundations, deck, cladding and building systems.

Delivery & Installation

Packages are sequenced for site delivery, contractor handoff or installation by Metalleve when included in the scope.

CNC Fabrication · Powered by FRAMECAD

Precision CFS fabrication, powered by FRAMECAD.

After the framing package is coordinated and approved, FRAMECAD brings the production data to the factory floor. Its automated roll-forming technology shapes each steel member and performs programmed operations with speed, consistency and precision—preparing components for assembly and delivery.

Inside fabrication

What happens when production begins.

01 · PRODUCTION DATA

Production files guide the machine

Approved component data tells the system which CFS members are required and how each one should be formed.

02 · STEEL FEED

Steel coil enters the production line

Coiled steel is fed through the equipment to begin a controlled, continuous forming process.

03 · ROLL FORMING

Each CFS profile is formed automatically

A sequence of rollers shapes the flat steel into the specified structural profile for each component.

04 · TOOLING

Cuts and holes happen in sequence

The machine performs programmed cutting and punching operations as the profile moves through production.

05 · IDENTIFICATION

Members are identified for assembly

Component identification helps the production team understand where each finished member belongs.

Requires technical validation
06 · OUTPUT

Components move to the next stage

Finished members are prepared for quality control, panel assembly or project-specific delivery.

Solutions

Cold-formed steel systems for walls, floors and roof framing.

Metalleve coordinates CFS components, panels and complete packages around the structural and architectural requirements of each project. Available delivery formats depend on system type, engineering responsibility and field scope.

ICC Certified

ICC-certified structural systems.
Coordinated around project-specific code requirements.

Metalleve is ICC certified and develops each defined CFS scope around the applicable project criteria, approved documents and recognized cold-formed steel standards.

Why CFS

Material advantages of
cold-formed steel.

CFS brings structural strength, dimensional consistency and durable performance to modern building systems—without relying on unverified statistics.

CFS Material
Labeled · Consistent · Controlled
Structural Strength

Cold-formed steel delivers reliable structural capacity for walls, floors, roofs and related framing systems.

Dimensional Consistency

Factory-controlled profiles help maintain straight, consistent members that support cleaner field assembly.

Noncombustible Material

CFS is a noncombustible framing material that can support project-specific fire-resistance strategies when used in tested assemblies.

Durability

Galvanized steel framing offers stable, long-term performance when specified and detailed for the project environment.

Off-Site Production · Recyclability · Project-Specific Performance

Digital coordination and controlled fabrication can reduce field cutting and material waste. Steel is recyclable, while structural and assembly performance remain tied to the approved project design.

CFS FAQ

Questions contractors ask
before fabrication.

A practical introduction to Metalleve's CFS workflow. Final scope, engineering responsibility, delivery format and field services remain project-specific.

What is cold-formed steel framing, and why use it instead of traditional framing?

Cold-formed steel framing is a lightweight structural system made from precisely formed steel sections. It offers dimensional consistency, strength, reduced material variability, and a more controlled fabrication process compared with traditional framing methods.

What does Metalleve provide: engineering, fabrication, delivery, or installation?

Metalleve provides an integrated cold-formed steel framing solution that may include technical review, detailing, fabrication, organization of framing components, and project support through delivery and installation coordination. The exact scope is defined according to each project.

How does the process work from design to fabrication?

The process begins with project review and detailing. The framing is then prepared digitally, checked, and converted into fabrication information. Using FRAMECAD technology, components are produced with CNC controlled precision and organized for efficient assembly on site.

Can Metalleve work from architectural or structural drawings provided by my team?

Yes. Metalleve can work from project information provided by architects, engineers, contractors, or developers. The drawings are reviewed and detailed as needed before fabrication to ensure the framing package is properly prepared for production.

What types of projects can use cold-formed steel framing?

Cold-formed steel framing can be used in a wide range of residential, commercial, and specialty construction projects. The system can be adapted to walls, roof trusses, floor systems, and other structural applications depending on the project requirements.

How are the panels and framing components delivered to the jobsite?

Framing components are prepared and organized according to the project and fabrication sequence to support efficient handling and assembly on site. Depending on the project, components may be delivered as assembled panels, framing packages, or other coordinated configurations.

What Clients Say

Trusted by teams that depend on clear coordination and reliable field delivery.

Project teams depend on timely answers, coordinated documentation, predictable fabrication and a clear handoff between production and the field.

What stood out was how organized Metalleve stayed throughout the job: clear detailing, steady communication, and no surprises when we needed answers on site. It made the whole process feel a lot more manageable.

Catholic Memorial School
