# Steel Fire Rebuild — Altadena & Palisades

> Noncombustible steel framing as one layer of a wildfire-hardened home.

Steel studs are noncombustible: they don't burn or add fuel. That makes steel framing a strong base for a rebuild, but framing alone does not make a home fire-safe. Post-fire research on the 2025 Los Angeles fires found that survival tracked the roof, vents, windows, siding and the 5-foot zone around the house, with embers a common ignition source.
We frame the structure in steel and help your team plan the rest of the envelope around California's new Wildland-Urban Interface Code (Title 24, Part 7) and the IBHS Wildfire Prepared Home standard.

## Included

- Wood-to-steel conversion of approved rebuild plans
