Any sump pump? If so, make sure there's a back up
Treated lumber should be good enough (i used it in my full basement) and tons cheaper than metal

i am planning to frame a living area in my walkout basement this winter.
does anyone have experience using metal studs instead of pressure treated lumber?
the basement is dry, so i don't think i need to use metal for moisture...just curious.
also, any advice on moisture barriers (one wall that I plan to finish is cement and 2/3rd under the ground).
