Boarding onto steel

Different screws, different technique

Steel takes fine-thread screws rather than coarse, and over-driving strips the stud rather than dimpling neatly.

Why crew matters

A crew used to wood will strip fasteners in steel until they adjust. When the same crew frames and boards an Garneau wall, that adjustment has already happened before the first sheet goes up.
