        "text": "Common materials for garage wall framing include lumber (such as Douglas Fir or Spruce-Pine-Fir) and light-gauge steel studs. Wood framing is prevalent due to its cost-effectiveness and ease of use, while steel framing offers advantages in terms of fire resistance, straightness, and resistance to pests. The choice of material often depends on local building codes, project budget, and specific structural requirements. Your contractor can advise on the best option for your project.",
