MITEK Posi-STRUT – Purlin, Floor and Rafter Truss System
Description

The MITEK Posi-STRUT system is a light, economical method of providing large clear spans in rafter, purlin and floor joist situations. Frames and supports can be spaced further apart to facilitate open spaces below.

The heart of the Posi-STRUT truss is the MITEK Posi-STRUT web. This is a folded metal web with nail plates at the pointed ends. The metal web is pressed onto timber chords to form a parallel chord truss.

The open-web pattern enables services and ducting to pass through the joist, rafter or purlin with ease. Posi-STRUTs are a truly customised, totally engineered flooring or roofing system, which combines the versatility of timber with the strength of steel, and offering a wide range of real advantages and savings to the architect, engineer and builder. 

Posi-STRUT is available only through MiTek Accredited Fabricators.
