Girders, seats and bridging alongside your joists — a full structural package from one trusted source.
Advantages of using joists
Strong, light and fast to frame
Open web steel joists — also described as open web beams — are used for roof and floor framing. Manufactured from steel angles, they combine structural strength with a lightweight open-web configuration that helps with handling, transport and installation.
Designed to support decks or slabs directly, they offer an efficient framing option. The spaces between web members allow mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems to pass through the frame, helping trades coordinate their work.
For commercial, industrial or residential projects, selection depends on the structural drawings, required loads, spans and manufacturer engineering. Send your drawings so we can help coordinate the joist package your project needs.
Why choose joists
Four reasons joists win on your project
01
Deflection control
Joists are engineered for the project's loads and spans, with strength and deflection requirements considered together.
02
Engineered framing
Manufacturer analysis and approval drawings establish the framing requirements before fabrication.
03
Installation coordination
Consistent fabrication and installation drawings help your team coordinate the joists, seats and bridging.
04
Simple connections
Straightforward connections and an open web support assembly planning and coordination with other trades.
From the plant to the frame
