Floors

Posi-joists, or metal web joists, combine lightweight timber with the strength of steel webbing to create a lightweight but strong flooring joist that is suitable for both floor and roof use. Unlike solid floor joists, Posi-joists can span much greater distances allowing for greater flexibility in building design. They are quick and easy to install, can be manufactured in a range of depths and are suitable for use in both floors and roofs. The webbed metal structure allows easier and hassle-free access for cabling and plumbing services.

Pre-engineered flooring modules (panels), manufactured using either I-joists or Posi-joists to meet design requirements and incorporating specifications such as, support conditions, load conditions and floor penetrations. Although floor cassettes are best suited to simple rectangular floor plans, logical segmentation of a more complex floor plan into simple, identical rectangular sections allows for greater flexibility of design. These ready-made flooring panels allow for quicker, easier construction and are straightforward to install without the need for specialist skills, thus reducing overall project build time and costs. This easy-fit flooring solution reduces the Health and Safety risks on-site by providing contractors with a stable working platform negating the need for them to work over dangerous voids with a fall arrest system in place.
