If exposed to flame, steel will suffer minimal structural damage when compared to wood. Our light lauge steel trusses offer confidence and peace of mind when it comes to contributing to the safety and protection of building occupants and materials. Furthermore, our engineered floor trusses can be used for both commercial and residential applications. Performance Steel trusses do not expand or contract with moisture content. Steel trusses are inorganic and will not rot, warp, split, crack, or creep.
Steel trusses are unaffected by termites.
Galvanized steel trusses will not rust. Galvanized steel trusses also require less maintenance, which increases the building's life cycle and decreases the probability of expensive repair costs. Steel trusses are lighter than wood trusses and have stronger connections when screws are used instead of nails.
