The Alpha Framing System

By Jesse Sanchez. 

The Alpha Framing System offers a faster, cleaner and stronger construction solution, saving up to two months on project timelines while improving structural integrity and reducing maintenance. 

The Alpha Framing System, developed by Elevate Structures (formerly Storage Structures) in collaboration with Central States Manufacturing, is revolutionizing the roofing industry by delivering a high-performance solution that excels in speed, strength and cleanliness. This system incorporates pre-assembled light gauge columns and beams, which outperform traditional framing methods in several key areas. 

Designed to withstand wind, shear and gravity loads, the Alpha Framing System offers exceptional structural integrity while maintaining a lightweight design. This system performs like more expensive heavy gauge structural systems, making it an efficient and cost-effective option for a variety of building projects. 

One of the most notable advantages of the Alpha Framing System is its ability to speed up the construction process. By allowing partition panels to be installed after the roof, it accelerates project timelines, saving up to two months in construction time. This innovation not only speeds up roof installation but also enables other trades to begin work earlier, ultimately reducing overall construction time. “Save up to 2 months on multi-story projects,” claims Elevate Structures. 

In addition to being faster, the system also boasts cleanliness and ease of maintenance. The elimination of traditional concrete staining and spillage during construction is a significant improvement, ensuring that facilities remain clean and free from ongoing debris. The absence of a bottom track further reduces the need for routine cleaning, making maintenance simpler and more cost-effective over the long term. 

The Alpha Framing System represents a cleaner, faster and stronger alternative to conventional building methods, offering a comprehensive solution for modern construction challenges. For contractors seeking to enhance efficiency and reduce costs, this patented system is a compelling choice.
