Metal web joists comprise of an upper and lower timber member, connected by a steel web that provides strength. This results in a strong and light-weight joist solution.

Why Choose Metal Web Joists?

Floor Joists

The open web nature of these types of joists allows you to conceal services within the floor zone with no need for expensive – and awkward – cutting, drilling or notching of the floor structure.

The steel webs which facilitate this open nature also provide exceptional strength characteristics. This exceptional strength characteristic means that metal web floor joists can span further than competing products. It also enables you to use shallower depths which opens up the opportunity for greater flexibility with floor to ceiling heights.

As a bespoke product, you can be confident that our designers can create a floor design unique to your project, rather than merely cutting down off the shelf products, as achieved with products such as Timber I-beams.

Using Mitek’s Pamir software, we can provide comprehensive engineered solutions for joist projects on:

  • Masonry Builds

  • Timber Frame Builds

  • SIP Builds

  • ICF Builds

  • Steel Frame Builds

Metal web joists are manufactured in a controlled offsite environment, ensuring a quality product which is delivered ‘made to measure’, allowing for speedy erection.

Here at ETS, we use cutting edge laser set-up technology to ensure millimetre perfect accuracy in manufacture.

The versatility of these joists allows you to use them in a variety of applications. Yes, they can be used as floor joists, but also for orangeries, flat roofs and pitched roof applications.

With all of these advantages and diverse applications, it’s easy to see why metal web joists are the fastest growing product in the UK’s engineered joist market.
