Our Design & Manufacturing Process

From Concept to Completion

1. Smart Truss Design

• AI-Powered Engineering:
  • MiTek 2024 Suite: 3D modelling for optimised weight distribution and material efficiency.
  • Load Simulations: Tested against Gauteng’s worst-case scenarios (150km/h winds).
• Custom Solutions:
  • Attic conversions with hidden storage.
  • Wide-span industrial trusses (up to 22m).
  • Hybrid timber-steel systems for heritage projects.

2. Precision Manufacturing

• Factory Direct in Gauteng:
  • Timber Trusses: CNC-cut SA Pine (CCA-treated for termite resistance).
  • Light Steel Trusses: Laser-guided fabrication of G550 steel (Zincalume® coated).
• Robotic Assembly: ±1mm tolerance for seamless on-site fitment.

3. Quality Assurance

• 12-Point Inspection:
  1. Joint integrity (nail plate alignment).
  2. Moisture content (<12% for timber).
  3. Anti-corrosion coatings (steel trusses).
• Certification: Issued with SANS-compliant compliance certificates.
