It’s no wonder fall arrest systems are required whenever workers are at risk of falling 6 feet or more from a working-walking surface1.
How much do you know about composite floor joists? They offer numerous advantages, particularly in terms of building mechanics, budget, and work schedule. Yet, this option is still relatively unknown. Discover how this engineered solution can help optimize your multi-storey structure.
Choosing the right building expansion technique requires some thought. Can prefabricated products be used to expand a construction built using traditional methods? If so, will the exterior cladding match? What are the advantages? Are they cost-effective? Do they speed up construction? We have answers to all your questions!
