LOFT STEEL DIRECT SERVICES:

FLOOR BEAMS

Floor beams are structural elements commonly used in construction. These beams support the weight of the floor and distribute the load to the supporting walls. Your Structural Engineer will have calculated the load involved and identified which steel section is to be used.

FEATURES

  • Strength: Steel floor beams offer high strength, allowing for longer spans and reduced material usage compared to other materials.

  • Splicing: Floor beams are often spliced beams, meaning they are cut down into smaller sections for easier transportation and installation. The splicing process typically involves drilled plates welded to the ends of each section so they can be bolted together in the loft space, to form the required overall length. The splice detail will be provided by your Structural Engineer. 

RIDGE BEAMS

Ridge beams are essential components in construction of pitched roofs. Our loft steel beams run along the peak or ridge of the roof and support the weight of the roof rafters, which in turn support the roof covering. In loft construction, ridge beams are often made of steel due to their strength and structural integrity.

FEATURES

  • Load Bearing: Ridge beams are designed to carry the load of the roof structure, including the weight of the roof covering, snow, and wind loads.

  • Spanning Capability: Steel ridge beams can span long distances without the need for intermediate supports, allowing for open and spacious loft areas.

  • Splicing: Like floor beams, ridge beams may also be spliced steel loft beams for easier transportation and installation. Splicing methods may include drilled plates welded on the ends of each section so they can be bolted together on site to form the required overall length.

  • Fixings: We provide all the necessary bolts for installation, ensuring a hassle-free process for the builders and contractors.
