Services
Metal Trusses
Engineered metal truss systems provide exceptional strength-to-weight ratios for commercial and residential structures. Our solutions resist Colorado's extreme weather while enabling open-concept designs. Components meet local building codes and integrate seamlessly with mechanical systems.
Cold-Formed Steel Trusses
Precision-engineered cold-formed steel trusses offer sustainable, fire-resistant structural solutions. We optimize profiles for load capacity and thermal performance while maintaining compatibility with BIM workflows for efficient construction sequencing.
Wood Trusses
Custom wood truss systems combine traditional material benefits with modern engineering. Our designs maximize span capabilities and accommodate complex architectural features while minimizing on-site waste through prefabrication.
Strong Axis Floor Trusses
Innovative strong axis floor trusses provide 20-foot spans with integrated ducting space. The system reduces material requirements while maintaining structural integrity and compatibility with standard deck ledger connections.
Design Engineering
Full-service engineering from 3D modeling to code compliance. Our team ensures structural compatibility with architectural plans and provides installation consultation to streamline construction processes.
