From timber to steel. This is a true steel framing story.
We meet Brett Smith (Queensland Steel House Frames) as he shares his journey from lifelong timber carpenter to installing steel frames …and the moment his perspective changed.
At first, he wasn’t convinced.
A shift in materials, methods, and mindset isn’t easy when you’ve spent years mastering your craft. But he saw something he believed could change the game in framing: Faster builds. Greater efficiency. New earning potential.
Sometimes the biggest shifts in construction start with a simple decision to try something different.
Hear how one carpenter adapted, and why he didn’t look back.

Ever wanted to step inside a purpose-built LGS framing factory?
Join us behind the scenes to see how one manufacturer created their own facility from the ground up - tailored specifically to how they build, assemble, and deliver quality steel framing systems.
THIS is how smart factory design drives better building outcomes.

What happens when engineering meets IMAGINATION?
Well, you get all sorts of things!
The birth of an "Alloygator" is one.
Combine pure creativity and Howick's precision LGS roll-forming technology, and anything seems possible. It’s a nice reminder that what we create isn’t just about buildings - it’s about possibility.
Join us as we take a look at how, and maybe more importantly, WHY we do what we do.

It was great to be part of the NASH 2026 National Industry Workshop.
Held in the beautiful Barossa Valley, Australia - it's hard to ask for a better backdrop as we discuss advancements and share insights into how steel framing is evolving across Australia.
NASH represents the Australian steel framing sector, working with fabricators, suppliers, and the wider industry to improve capability, confidence, and consistency in light gauge steel framing, and HOWICK LTD was proud to be there as a sponsor, supporting the initiative.
If you want to learn more about future plans and how Howick technology is making a difference - let's chat.
