Light Gage Metal Framing
(LGMF) Design

McLaren has been providing structural engineering design services for light gage metal framing / pre-fabricated cold-formed metal panel wall projects of every size, shape, scope and complexity around the country. From EOR (engineer of record) permit drawings to shop drawings and calculations, our experts understand that structural system selection should respond to the needs of the architectural design rather than creating limitations to the architecture.

Knowing each floor system has its respective strengths depending upon the desired architectural vision and interior design, we provide selection support that works in conjunction with the architecture to keep aesthetics in line and costs consistent.
