Open Web Floor Trusses
Open web floor trusses offer many advantages. They are light and stable, making them easy to handle during construction and strong once installed. They are also an affordable alternative to materials like steel or concrete.
In addition, open web wood floor joists are a green choice, as they are created using environmentally-friendly, locally-processed materials.
Open web floor trusses: key features
Open web wood floor joists are a smart choice thanks to several key features. These triangulated frames are constructed from small pieces of wood (2×3 and 2×4) and specifically designed to offer exceptional structural efficiency.
Their openwork design allows pipes, ducts or wires to pass through easily without drilling, saving you considerable time and construction costs. They also offer excellent fire resistance, superior soundproofing and simplified floor covering installation thanks to a large nailing surface.
Lightweight and available in different heights, engineered wood floor trusses can easily be adapted to all types of projects, including agricultural, residential, multi-residential and commercial. Contact one of our specialists to find out more.
