After getting some walls up you'll need to start putting in the steel frame set up to hold the roof or second story floor up.  In this application there were 2 ways to go.  If you want clear span then large I beams 28' long have to be used and that means the wall panels get taller to hide the bigger I Beams, or use columns internally to permit smaller I beams.  Our downstairs will have steel columns, the up will be clear span.

Not an easy task, but with a forklift and some safe minded workers the steel will go up tying into the steel posts hidden in the panel connectors.

The wall will be capped with top cap which is the reverse version of the floor channel.  All the electrical conduits will have to have wire pulled by outside electricians, this is a job we simply don't do.

Engineers will like this one for a closer look at the I beam framework that will hold first corrugated steel sheet and then, on top, the 3/4" tongue and groove plywood that will make the second story floor.

To here we had 2 men and about 50 man hours of labor.

A scissor lift (owned and supplied by Mills Pride) will make many tasks easier for the installers, be they your men or ours.

Here Sanford Middour from the Ohio install crew (super guys, and hard working) installs some bolts in the 1st floor "I" beam assembly.  Corrugated steel deck gets attached (see next panel up) on top and then 3/4" tongue and groove plywood get screwed to that.  And you get all the fasteners.
