INTRODUCTION MAXIFRAME® EXTERNAL WALL FRAMING SYSTEM
The MAXIframe® External Wall Framing System is a lightweight steel framing system for external wall construction. The system has been expertly engineered to offer builders a more efficient, versatile and cost-effective design option than traditional external wall framing construction methods.
MAXIframe® incorporates standard Judah 3 5/8″ Steel Studs as the main framing and includes two major profiles; MAXIjamb®, a Jamb Stud and MAXItrack®, a Slotted Deflection Head Track as well as complementary cleats to provide a simple, yet solid structure.
Together with three complementary cleats, the MAXIframe® System provides a simple, solid structure that not only outperforms typical boxed stud configuration, but also reduces the required number of nogging tracks, saving the builder both time and money.
