Examples include:
- Steel framed bathroom pods installed into concrete structures
- Steel joist systems installed into timber or concrete systems
- Light gauge framing systems used for adding additional levels to existing buildings
- Light gauge framing installed with heavy gauge hot rolled beams
- Framed lintel beams installed in timber or IFC structures
