Truss & Floor Joist.
Truss.
Cold-formed steel (CFS) trusses, also known as light gauge steel trusses, are made from high-quality sheet steel that is fashioned into different shapes by roll forming, or the continuous bending of long strips of sheet metal. CFS can be formed into various steel thicknesses and are fabricated in a manufacturing plant using screws, bolts or welds. Cold-formed steel trusses are used in all aspects of construction: commercial, residential, educational, manufacturing and hospitality.
Floor Joist.
For 50-plus years, cold-formed steel (CFS) c-shape joist systems have offered superior performance when compared to traditional wood framing joists. Because steel has the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any building material used for construction, utilizing c-shaped steel joists can significantly reduce the cost of labor and materials because architects and builders find that one can achieve similar spans and loads with wider joist spacing.
