Long-Span Applications and Advantages

• Trusses are lifted in rigid modules with the sheathing permanently attached; no steel workers or special installation crews are needed
• Perfect for uncluttered, open spaces without intermediate bearing walls, columns, or obstructions such as gymnasiums, auditoriums, shopping centers and warehouses
• Easier and less expensive to remodel, install equipment and efficiently use the space - even if it's divided into smaller areas
