More than framing. A coordinated wall assembly.

Cold-formed steel framing, structural steel integration, enclosure components, and prepared openings — coordinated to the project and built into the prefabricated walls where the scope calls for it.

Scope first

Built around the project, not one standard stack.

Every panel package is shaped by the drawings, the approved engineering, and what belongs in the shop versus the field. We can integrate cold-formed framing, structural steel, air and water-resistive barriers, sheathing, continuous insulation, prepared openings, and connection hardware — but we do not put every component in every panel. What ships is what your project specifies and coordinates.

Use this page as a look at the kinds of components we build with. The final assembly for your job follows scope, design, and approved engineering.

Cold-formed steel

CFS framing

Precision-manufactured cold-formed steel studs, tracks, and related members form the backbone of the panel. Members are cut, labeled, and assembled in a controlled shop so geometry, openings, and interfaces match the coordinated model.

  • Structural and nonstructural CFS framing as the design requires
  • Shop assembly with project identification
  • Ready for sheathing, barriers, and other integrated details when scoped

Where the design needs it

Structural steel integration

When loads, spans, or openings call for more than light-gauge framing alone, we coordinate structural steel — including HSS and related members — into the same prefabrication path. The goal is one assembly the field can set without chasing mismatched pieces.

  • HSS and structural members integrated where engineering requires
  • Coordination with CFS geometry and connections
  • Included only when the project scope and design call for it

Enclosure

Air and water-resistive barriers

Where specified, a shop-applied air and water-resistive barrier moves more enclosure work into the prefabricated walls. This can reduce weather-sensitive field detailing around openings and help the project reach dry-in sooner after installation and completion of required joints and transitions.

Actual timing depends on the project design, other trades, installation, and required field joints and transitions.

  • Membrane and transition details coordinated across panel and building interfaces
  • Seams and transitions planned with openings and sheathing
  • Final performance follows the specified system and field completion of joints as required

Thermal and substrate

Sheathing and continuous insulation

Wall-tech can integrate specified sheathing, rigid continuous insulation, and a nail base alongside the air/vapor barrier. Moving those specified exterior layers into the shop can reduce separate field scopes, deliveries, mobilizations, and lift time, supporting earlier dry-in and a more streamlined installation sequence.

Actual enclosure completion still depends on the project design, other trades, installation, and required field joints and transitions.

  • Sheathing selected to suit the specified enclosure approach
  • Continuous insulation integrated in the shop when scoped
  • Attached and identified with the rest of the panel package

Windows and doors

Prepared openings and details

Openings are framed and detailed before the truck leaves. Liquid flashing and transition membranes at sills and corners help keep water management continuous with the barrier system — so the field spends time setting and sealing, not rebuilding rough openings.

  • Rough openings coordinated to the glazing and door schedule
  • Flashing details applied where the scope includes them
  • Panel IDs keep the right opening at the right hook

Connections

Fasteners and connection hardware

The small parts matter. Ties, straps, clips, and fasteners are staged with the panel package so connections match the engineered details — not a scavenger hunt on site.

  • Project-specific connection hardware staged for fabrication and delivery
  • Supports CFS-to-CFS and CFS-to-structure connections as designed
  • Included to match the approved connection schedule

Ready for the hook

Coordinated, identified, ready for delivery

Panels leave labeled and stacked for the install sequence. The package is meant to arrive as a coordinated set — framing, integrated components, and the hardware that belongs with them — so crews can set productively and keep enclosure moving.

  • Panel identification tied back to the model and drawings
  • Load order planned around install sequence
  • Shop QA before the truck rolls

Tell us what your wall needs to do. We’ll help define what belongs in the panel — and what stays with other trades.

Coordinate your panel package

Bring the drawings. We’ll shape the panel package.

Share scope, enclosure intent, and schedule. We’ll walk what can be shop-integrated — CFS, structural steel, barriers, insulation, prepared openings, and hardware — without promising a fixed stack that ignores your design.
