Roof trusses are engineered timber structures that support a building’s roof. They distribute loads evenly across the walls of a structure. As a result, they create strong and stable roof systems. Builders widely use roof trusses in residential and commercial construction because they allow large open roof spaces.
FAQ
Roof trusses provide excellent structural strength and improve construction efficiency. Because manufacturers produce them off-site, builders can install them quickly on site. In addition, trusses reduce material waste and labour costs. Therefore, many construction projects choose roof trusses for both performance and efficiency.
Structural timber offers strength, sustainability, and design flexibility. It weighs less than steel or concrete, which simplifies installation. In addition, timber stores carbon and supports sustainable construction. Therefore, many modern buildings now use timber engineering solutions.
Glulam timber, short for glued laminated timber, is an engineered wood product made by bonding layers of timber together under pressure. This process creates a strong structural material that can span long distances. Glulam beams are commonly used in large buildings, bridges, and architectural structures that require both strength and visual appeal.
Feature trusses are exposed timber trusses that create visual impact inside buildings. Unlike standard roof trusses, designers leave feature trusses visible as part of the interior design. As a result, they combine structural performance with architectural character.
Floor joists are horizontal structural beams that support floors in buildings. They transfer loads from the floor surface to supporting walls or beams. As a result, they create stable and durable floor structures. Builders commonly use timber floor joists in residential construction.
Glulam beams provide exceptional strength, stability, and design flexibility. They can span longer distances than traditional solid timber beams and can also be manufactured in curved or unique shapes. In addition, glulam is a sustainable building material that offers both structural performance and an attractive natural timber finish.
Yes, we specialise in the supply of Glulam beams. We provide both straight and curved Glulam beams tailored to your project’s specific needs, whether for large-span structures, bridges, or other architectural applications.
We offer a wide range of Glulam beams in different sizes, lengths, and profiles, custom-made to meet the specifications of your project. Our team works closely with you to design the ideal solution for your needs.
They are cost-effective, quick to install, and provide flexibility for routing services, reducing the need for drilling or notching.
Attic trusses create usable living space within a roof structure. They support the roof while also forming a clear area for rooms such as bedrooms or offices. As a result, homeowners can increase floor space without extending the building footprint. In addition, attic trusses simplify construction and reduce the need for additional structural supports.
Yes, we carry out site measurements when required. Accurate measurements help ensure that structural timber components fit correctly during installation. In addition, site surveys allow our team to identify any design considerations early in the project. As a result, we can provide precise manufacturing and reduce delays during construction.
Yes, we offer fixing services for the timber products we supply. Our experienced team can assist with the installation of Glulam beams and other structural timber elements to ensure they are properly positioned and secured according to design specifications.
Yes, we can produce glulam beams in curved or arched shapes. They bond thin layers of timber together and form them around moulds during production. As a result, glulam beams can follow precise curves. This flexibility allows architects to design large open spaces and striking architectural features.
Oak framed buildings offer durability, natural beauty, and traditional craftsmanship. Oak provides excellent strength and weather resistance. In addition, the timber develops a distinctive character over time. Therefore, many homeowners choose oak frames for porches, car ports, and extensions.
