- C joists 150 – 300 mm, to 2.4 mm
- Rim tracks, web stiffeners, blocking
- Loose members or factory cassettes
- Service holes in line
- Deck: particle board, plywood, cement board or steel deck
- Floors for houses, mid-rise and mezzanines
What it is
Floor joists span between load-bearing walls or steel beams and carry the floor deck. Rim tracks close the ends, web stiffeners take concentrated loads at bearings, and bridging or strapping prevents the joists from rolling.
| Joist | BMT | Typical span |
|---|---|---|
| C 150 | 1.0 – 1.6 mm | short spans, ceilings |
| C 200 | 1.15 – 2.0 mm | residential floors |
| C 250 – 300 | 1.5 – 2.4 mm | longer spans, heavier loads |
Spans depend on loads, deflection and vibration limits – every floor is designed for the project.
Cassettes
Prefabricated floor cassettes – joists, rim tracks and deck assembled in the factory – are lifted into place in minutes and give a working platform immediately.
