Overview

LGS floor joist systems provide lightweight, dimensionally stable floor framing for residential, multi-level and modular projects. Joists are manufactured from cold-formed galvanised steel and can include pre-punched service holes for plumbing and electrical runs.

Spans, spacing and member sizes are set by the project's structural design. Compared with timber floor framing, steel joists avoid shrinkage-related movement, which can reduce squeaks and floor cracking caused by drying.

Features

  • Spans and spacing to engineer's design
  • Pre-punched service holes available
  • Dimensionally stable with moisture changes
  • Steel is not a food source for termites
  • Lighter members for handling on site

Features describe the product type. Performance for your project is confirmed in the quotation and supporting documents.
