Default How to frame around steel beams?

It would be most common to drill the flanges for carriage bolts to hold a
piece of ply or lumber. The other common method would use PAT - powder
actuated fasteners to shoot lumber onto the steel flanges.


I agree...

Hi,

Here's what the ceiling of my kitchen looks like now:

I'm planning on having a ceiling that slopes with the roof, then drops
straight down and goes around the beams. What's the strategy for
framing something like that since I can't nail studs to the beams.

Thanks a lot in advance,

Aaron
