Trusses.

We stand behind the structural performance of the building. Our trusses are engineered for Alberta wind and snowloads. We provide truss drawings for every job. Our trusses are bolted into position which satisfies the uplift of the building by preventing the truss from separating from the pole.
Bearing.

We pour concrete into the hole prior to placing the post. The concrete is a minimum 10” thick and is the diameter of the hole. The concrete foot pad spreads the weight bearing of the pole and results in a stronger foundation.
Maximum Height.

Our girder truss system allows bi-fold doors to open at the full building height.
Girder Trusses.

Over bi-fold doors we install a 3-ply girder truss next to the gable truss for additional support. When the bi-fold door opens and closes the girder truss supports the weight so that it doesn’t put stress on the roof.
Details Matter.

Our buildings have poles and trusses every 4’ this ensures the structural integrity of the building. We use #14 head screws per manufacturer's specifications.
