Standard steel joists and joist girders are crucial, tried-and-true components of your roofing and flooring building system. Our joists and girders are engineered and manufactured in

JOIST AND JOIST GIRDER Steel JOIST AND JOIST GIRDER Thin, lacy steel is connected in a triangulated system. Joists transfer load at the top flange, unlike their thicker

Advantages of Space Frame Structure Space frame structures are easy for transportation, handle, and stack. It offers adjustable cambering features. Very easy to install on-site due to fast

steel joist girder structure. Joist girder structures are mainly intended to carry the vertical loads, with the lateral loads assigned to braced bays along the perimeter of the structure. The main

JOIST AND JOIST GIRDER Steel JOIST AND JOIST GIRDER Thin, lacy steel is connected in a triangulated system. Joists transfer load at the top flange, unlike their thicker Also called open steel joists, these lightweight joists span between joist girders, a more robust joist. JOIST AND JOIST GIRDER PRECEDENTS

Joist and Joist Girder Reinforcement Tool This design tool has been developed by the Steel Joist Institute to assist the SER and the steel fabricator with the complex task of reinforcing open steel joists and Joist Girders in order to increase their strength to accommodate added loads for which they were not originally

Without the complete primary frame, the building would not stand up to vertical or lateral loads over time. It provides the bones upon which the rest of the framing attaches. Because the main frame bears the dead weight of the building and the live loads when in use almost all its members will be hot-rolled structural steel. The

The current design practice used for the design of joist girder moment frames is detailed Technical Digest 11, Design of Lateral Load Resisting Frames Using Steel Joists and Joists Girders (SJI 2007). Additional discussion of JGMFs is provided (Green et al 2009).

With over 43 years working in the structural steel industry, we have been designing and detailing OWSJ bar joist since 2002. We can provide structural analysis and shop drawings for bar joist with bridging and supporting steel girders professionally designed and drawn with clear details for the fabricators and erectors, engineers and

Advantages of Space Frame Structure Space frame structures are easy for transportation, handle, and stack. It offers adjustable cambering features. Very easy to install on-site due to fast installation or prefabricated components. It does not require purlins. It

Frame structures constructed with a structural steel frame or a frame composed of open steel joists, joist girders with or without other structural steel elements or a frame composed of composite steel or composite steel joists and reinforced concrete elements shall conform to the requirements of this section. 1616.2.2.1

Shear studs are often welded to the top of a steel beam. These studs serve a.) strengthen the beams connection to an adjoining beam or girder b.) ensure a proper moment connection to an adjoining beam or girder c.) bond the beam to the concrete and cause the beam and concrete to act as a single structural

Steel Joist Detailing for Shop Drawings. With over 42 years working in the structural steel industry, we have been detailing OWSJ bar joist since 2002. We can provide shop drawings for bar joist with bridging and supporting steel girders professionally drawn and with clear details for the fabricators and erectors, engineers and

and less expensive steel structure compared to other structural steel frame approaches. This integrated approach to steel joist and deck design can save time and money on a building project, and possibly improve the design of the building. The design also contributes to earlier erection, a potentially
