Steel joist roof system.

Joists are often doubled or tripled placed side by side where conditions warrant such as where wall partitions require support. Joist girders are open web steel trusses used as primary framing members. Tradeready steel joists are precision manufactured from corrosion resistant galvanized steel. Joist to girder attachments are normally supported with joist hangers easyclip e series or s series support clips.

When incorporated into a floor framing system joists serve to provide stiffness to the subfloor sheathing allowing it to function as a horizontal diaphragm. Structural track usually in the same gauge as the joist is used as rim or band enclosures. Typically used in non residential construction steel joists and joist girders provide an economical system for supporting floors and roofs. Steel joists offer consistent quality predictable performance and high strength to weight ratio and they are dimensionally stable.

We have the expertise to help you determine the optimal structural steel building system for your application. These concentrated loads are considered to act at the panel points of the joist girders. The main use of an owsj is to provide support for roof or floor deck and to transfer the load imposed on the deck to the structural frames beam and column. The joist also features a series of smaller holes for electrical and technology lines.

Open web steel joists are an engineered truss like construction component used to support loads over short and long spans alike. Spantec systems are designers and manufacturers of boxspan steel flooring systems. Standard steel joists and joist girders are crucial tried and true components of your roofing and flooring building system. Totaljoist is an easy to install cold formed steel floor joist that offers a robust simplified framing solution compared to traditional wood or steel joists.

Together let s build it better. Depending on loads and spans c joists are typically spaced at 12 16 19 2 or 24 on center spacing. From steel joists and deck to long span composite floor systems we engineer and manufacture solutions that control costs enhance performance and ensure project success. The proprietary design allows totaljoist to be installed similar to wood i joists.
