FrameUpNow brings disruptive technology to residential construction by applying International Building Code (IBC) engineering, BIM-derived material quantities, and a rule-based automated design system to produce precision-engineered steel home frames with known material costs before construction begins. Using AI-assisted specifications and algorithmic automation, the system rapidly generates engineered plan sets, structural calculations, and detailed material shopping lists—delivering speed, repeatability, compliance, and budget clarity for affordable housing projects.
Learn about why steel framing is taking over and changing home construction as we know it.
