Suitable for use with flat roofs or sloping roofs where the lattice beams can be laid to falls.
Steel lattice roof beams.
Mlb steel can also customise the finish of long span lattice beams.
The shapes of hot rolled profiles are designed to achieve optimum bending properties for the use of steel.
Spans of more than 40 metres are achievable and our steel trusses span without the need for intermediate support columns.
Steel roof beams lightweight roof beams lightweight steel lattice beams were first introduced by metsec in the 1950 s and their inherent advantages very quickly established the product as the first choice for structurally sound cost effective construction.
They can also be used as long span purlins and are suitable for use with most external finishes from lightweight metal sheeting through to heavier constructions with tiles on battens or decking.
Steel trusses are used in conjunction with cold rolled purlins offer a very competitive option to traditional timber trusses.
Lattice beams are available in both steel and aluminium lengths ranging from 2 8m and heights from 450mm and 750mm.
Shop online for standard or cut to size lengths at wholesale steel beam prices.
Metals depot stocks a wide range of steel beam sizes for thousands of applications.
In the scheme design of uniformly loaded steel beams sections with a span depth ratio of 18 to 20 are typically used i e.
Just give us a call if you need something special.
Although the solid beams have the depth to span advantage they also have a high self weight and often loose out to the lattice beam structures because the open structures provide.
We deliver our solutions alongside a complete range of support services that are delivered by industry experts and backed by a combined 200 years of experience.
Lattice beams also allow the passage of services through the lattice s web without any loss of head room or need for exposed pipework which can form a potential dust trap.
Specialist products to meet specific requirements such as perimeter facade details for modular buildings multiple outbuildings portal framed structures.
The steel lattice beams are intended to support the highest possible loads and bridge the widest spans while the aluminium lattice beam is a lower weight alternative with comparable capacity and often the preferred solution.
For a span of 8 m the steel beam will be approximately 450 mm deep.
Lattice beams lightweight steel lattice beams for flat roof applications available fully or partially manufactured to suit site conditions.
We also offer a selection of galvanized steel beams.
Since 2012 mlb have been the only independent manufacturer and supplier of the iconic metsec lightweight lattice beam.
Our lightweight quality products include long span steel beams roof beams floor beams green roof systems cantilevers and a wide choice of lattice beam systems.
