Posi-joists & Engineered Timber Solutions


Services

What We Offer

We provide a full design and manufacture service for the production and sale of open web engineered joists and rafters, “Posi” Joists and associated products such as floor and roof cassettes and ancillary fixings and metalwork.

POSI-Joists

Posi-Joists are an engineered solution as an alternative to traditional mass timber joists in the floors and roof zones of buildings.

Posi-Joist combines the lightness of timber with the strength of the Posi-Strut steel web to produce a floor and roof system allowing you to span far greater distances than would be possible with alternative timber products.

POSI-Rafters


As with Posi-Joist floor joists they are designed and manufactured offsite and tailored to the requirements of each individual project.

Posi-Rafters are suitable for both pitched roofs and flat roofs. They are stronger than solid timber rafters, therefore can span further and require less internal support.

Floor & Roof Cassettes

Combining the benefits of POSI-Joists and Rafter elements into one pre-formed cassette delivered direct to site ready to be lifted into place, saving both time and site labour.

METAL WEB JOISTS

ABOUT POSI-JOISTS

Posi-Joist combines the lightness of timber with the strength of the Posi-Strut steel web to produce a floor and roof system allowing you to span far greater distances than would be possible with alternative timber products.

This gives you unequalled design freedom across a wide range of applications for both floor and roof in domestic, industrial and commercial applications. The Posi-Joist allows a variety of internal room layouts within an external shell due to its clear spanning capabilities.

Easy access for the installation and maintenance of services in the floor zone is the clear advantage of the Posi-Joist system, and with the ever increasing need for MVHR (Mechanical Ventilation and Heat Recovery) systems, Posi-Joist provides a perfect and simple solution that just isn’t possible with alternative solid timber products.
