CFS Trusses, Frames And Joists Supplier and Manufacturer
CFS stands for Cold-Formed Steel, which is a type of steel that is made by bending and rolling steel sheets into various shapes without the use of heat. CFS is commonly used in construction for various applications such as trusses, frames, and joists. Here’s a brief explanation of each:
- Trusses: CFS trusses are structural elements made up of a series of interconnected triangles. They are designed to bear loads over long spans and are commonly used in roofing and flooring systems. CFS trusses are often prefabricated and assembled on site, which makes them an efficient and cost-effective choice for construction projects.
- Frames: CFS frames are vertical and horizontal structural members that are used to create the skeleton of a building. They are made up of C-shaped channels, also known as studs, and tracks, which connect the studs together. CFS frames are lightweight and easy to install, making them a popular choice for commercial and residential construction projects.
- Joists: CFS joists are horizontal members that are used to support floors and ceilings. They are typically made up of a top and bottom chord connected by vertical members called webs. CFS joists are lightweight, strong, and easy to install, making them a popular choice for floor and ceiling systems in commercial and residential construction projects.
