Roof Trusses
Our roof trusses provide structural support for buildings while offering significant advantages over traditional methods. Manufactured from sustainably sourced timber, these engineered solutions reduce material usage by up to 40% compared to conventional roofs. The prefabricated design ensures rapid installation, minimising on-site labour requirements while maintaining exceptional thermal efficiency and structural integrity.
Floor Joists
SpaceJoist open-web floor systems combine structural performance with practical installation benefits. The metal-web design allows easy integration of mechanical and plumbing services without compromising strength. These prefabricated components enable faster construction timelines while delivering superior acoustic performance and eliminating common issues like floor squeaking through advanced vibration control technology.
Timber Rafters
SpaceRafter offers a high-performance solution for room-in-the-roof constructions. The metal-web design creates deep insulation voids while maintaining lightweight handling characteristics. This system enables longer spans without intermediate supports and can be manufactured as off-site cassettes, significantly reducing on-site construction time and improving health and safety outcomes through reduced working at height.
Stud Wall Systems
SpaceStud provides advanced thermal performance in timber frame construction. The engineered stud system achieves superior U-values through variable wall widths while maintaining structural integrity. This cost-effective solution reduces thermal bridging by up to 20% compared to traditional timber studs, combining environmental benefits with enhanced racking resistance for improved structural performance.
Whole Roof & Floor System Design
Our comprehensive design service covers complete roof and floor systems from initial concept to installation. Utilising specialist software, we create custom solutions that optimise material usage while meeting exacting thermal and structural requirements. This holistic approach ensures seamless integration of all components, reducing on-site adjustments and guaranteeing compliance with current building regulations.
