Structural Metal Stud prices Louisiana/Texas February 2023

Fortunately for the commercial framing industry steel framing and metal studs prices maintain their post pandemic low. We are fortunate in Louisiana and South Texas to be in proximity to the two largest ports in US, the The Port of South Louisiana and The Port of Houston. Access to good shipping allow for an influx of steel coils which falling structural stud prices seems to spurred by sell-offs from Chinese mills. Anyways here are the numbers we are getting in February per foot. If you’d like to price and individual project using custom lengths please use your main portal.

How is stud cost calculated?

At US Frame Factory all studs are cut to order so we price based on more than just material used but also machine changeover time(the time it take our machine operators to change the machine from running one stud size to another). You can expect variance when using our cost calculator.
