There are any problem for using metalics structures instead of wood structures for insolation panels?

Are you talking about framing with steel, like this

Or covering the outside with steel, like this

Or both, or something completely different? Steve

Sure, several of our members have used steel framing - I need to go to work soon so don't have much time right now, but here is one thread where a lot of steel framing was used - sorry, it's a long one, don't remember where the framing parts are. You'll have to browse through all 20 pages. Near the end there are lots of pictures -
