Why are screws better to use in wide ranges of construction?
Screws are not always the best solution for fastening construction materials. In fact, in some cases screws are not an option. For instance, screws have great withdrawal or holding power. It's much harder to pull a screw out with a hammer than a nail. However, nails are much stronger in shear (sid pressure) than a screw is. This is due to the fact the shank is reduced in order to make the threads, which in turn weakens the screw. When framing always use nails unless you are using a screw that is rated or engineered specifically for a use.

Does a screw work better on a board than a nail?
In general, screws are stronger than nails of similar size. In other words, it is much easier to pull out a nail than a screw.

I would have to know what you are building, to say if you should be using screws or nails. Nails, of course, are easier to install, and also less expensive, so for some jobs that are better.
