Siding On Steel Structure Building???

masterC

does anybody here have experienced intalling siding on steel structure building??

I like to know what are the differences between wood and steel structure.

I would think the only difference would be to use screws instead of nails. I have not sided with steel construction, but have seen siding put on ICF's and it can be nailed or screwed.

Could you add some more detail to the question...

First off, let me say that I don't install siding for a living, but I am residing my own house. Our house is steel frame and I am residing with Hardi plank. I am using stainless self drilling screws. It started off a little slow but after getting the screw gun set up right it's moving along nicely. The original siding was shot on with a fluted nail (?) , but as I was removing it, most of them out of the studs too easily, so I would stay away from that method.
