Knudson by Scottsdale KSE FrameExtend24 (commonly known as FE24) represents a groundbreaking roll forming system that is truly transforming the light-gauge steel framing sector.
This innovative technology makes it possible to fully panelize cold-formed steel infill framing — including curtain walls — by shifting the majority of the work off-site. The result? Significantly faster overall project timelines, much less time spent on the construction site, and substantial reductions in both costs and potential errors during curtain wall installation.
FE24 produces advanced telescoping wall systems that completely remove dimensional uncertainty as a concern in light-gauge steel framing for curtain wall partitions in both commercial and residential projects. The built-in telescoping design also allows these wall panels to be easily maneuvered through confined spaces such as elevators, stairwells, and tight corridors.
Beyond infill (non-load bearing) applications, FE24 framing is suitable for load-bearing walls and enables rapid fabrication of reinforced studs as well as high-performance cold-formed steel box columns.
