in cold climates steel frame is often preferred because it can be erected in winter, where the hoarding and heating costs for concrete can be prohibitive.
concrete is often being chosen today in 'green' buildings, because it has the ability to act as a thermal mass....helps shave the peaks mechanical loads.
