About Our Trusses

Wooden trusses have been a staple in the building industry for centuries and are still commonly used as a structural support system for roofs.

Wooden trusses are a cost-effective and durable option for roof support, and they can be customized to meet the unique requirements of a building’s design.

They are also eco-friendly and can be produced quickly and efficiently, as wood is a renewable resource that can be sustainably harvested.

 
H3 Treated Pine

Trusses made from pine wood that has been treated with chemicals have several advantages over untreated wood trusses.

The preservatives used in the treatment process make the wood resistant to decay, termites, and other pests, which can significantly extend the lifespan of the trusses.

This is especially important in areas with high humidity or where pests are prevalent, as untreated wood can quickly deteriorate and become a safety hazard. Treated pine wood trusses are also less likely to warp or split, which helps to maintain their structural integrity over time.

Furthermore, the treatment process does not affect the strength or performance of the wood, making it a reliable and cost-effective choice for roof support.
