Engineering Data Center Resilience with Cold-Formed Steel Framing

Accelerating data center deployment requires framing systems that balance structural integrity with installation speed. Marino\WARE’s cold-formed steel (CFS) solutions are engineered to optimize jobsite efficiency and meet stringent structural and fire-safety standards, while ensuring future-ready durability.

  • FireRip® Head-of-Wall Deflection System: Engineered for high-deflection joints, FireRip® delivers 1-, 2-, and 3-hour fire-rated assemblies in a single-layer profile. Tested per UL 2079 (5th Edition), this composite steel angle accommodates up to 4″ of head-of-wall movement with up to 100% compression and extension, eliminating complex track assemblies and field-applied firestop sealants.
  • StudRite® Open Web Studs: StudRite® delivers one of the industry’s highest strength-to-mass ratios in structural framing. By maximizing structural capacity while reducing overall steel mass, StudRite® simplifies material handling, improves jobsite ergonomics, and speeds up wall assembly without compromising structural performance or limiting wall heights.
  • Heavy-Gauge Structural Framing: Custom-manufactured to support high-bay partitions and demanding structural loads, Marino\WARE structural studs and track are manufactured in thickness profiles up to 10-gauge and custom-cut to project lengths, reducing jobsite waste and cutting installation times.

Together, these solutions help design teams meet the dual mandate of today’s data centers: rapid deployment and enduring performance. Learn more by visiting https://www.marinoware.com/data-center-solutions/.
