What is a truss

A truss is a framework that consists of rafters, struts, ties, and purlins or battens.

When these trusses are made of steel it is known as Light Gauge Steel Trusses (LGST).

Its long-life span, flexibility, durability, immunity to extreme weather conditions, wrapping, and shrinkage give it an enormous advantage over timber trusses.
How we fabricate Light Gauge Steel Trusses:

The process requires specialized tools, skills, and methods to create desired end products.

It involves three major steps: Cutting, Forming, and Assembling.

Cutting: A variety of cutting tools such as saws, laser cutters, are used to cut the steel into intricate shapes.
Forming: The desired shapes are achieved by putting together the cut trusses.
Assembling: This involves connecting the parts together as each part becomes a support to the main structure. It must be assembled according to technical specifications.
The objective of these steps is to create trusses that are lightweight without compromise to the integrity and stability of the structure while complying with standards.

The ability of LGS trusses to be customized to preferred designs of clients/customers and its high adaptability gives it a good competitive edge in Modern Roofing.
