Metwood Becomes Certified DynaTruss Fabricator

Metwood has been using Allied Tubing and Conduit products for several years. Allied has several product lines and Metwood has been keeping an eye on their DynaTruss System. It recently became a practical move to add DynaTruss to the Metwood product line and become a DynaTruss certified fabricator. The Allied name is familiar in the building industry and DynaTruss is gaining in popularity and well positioned to become the product of choice among contractors.

NEW ICF Beam Hanger

NEW ICF BEAM HANGER - Metwood has introduced a new ICF Beam Hanger (patent pending) designed to simplify and streamline the installation of Metwood floorSPAN systems. Metwood ICF Hangers are made of heavy guage galvanized steel with a 5.25” ID and are designed to handle Metwood's standard two ply throughSPAN and truSPAN beams used in it's floorSPAN Systems. The ICF Beam Hangers tie into the strengthening core of the poured wall resulting in a load capacity of 18,000lbs per hanger. Metwood's patented truSPAN and throughSPAN Beams can be cut to length on the job site and fasten to the Hangers using standard self drilling screws. Metwood's floorSPAN systems are sure, solid, and radiant ready, and result in maximum loads, longer unsupported spans, and maximized space. Please feel free to leave a question or comments.
