ClarkDietrich iTools was developed to help construction teams evaluate purchasing decisions and assist in product selection for steel framing projects. Users can access more than 500 data sheets at the push of a button, while the cost-saving calculators use project-specific data to provide an instant comparative pricing model for both materials and labor for many of ClarkDietrich steel framing products. Through the iTools interface, users can also access the iProSTUD Interior Wall & Ceiling Lookup Tool, which gives contractors and architects the ability to calculate and filter wall assembly data by specific properties including: wall design, wall assembly, limiting heights and ceiling spans, STC sound ratings and UL fire protection ratings. In addition, users can directly link to UL design reports, third-party STC sound tests.

The HDS Framing System from ClarkDietrich is a labor-saving, multi-purpose steel framing system that eliminates box beam header assembly, as well as stud-to-track nesting for post, header and jamb studs.
