PosiStrut trusses are parallel chord trusses using timber chords on flat and unique PosiStrut "V" webs.
Posi‐Struts are manufactured from galvanised steel and incorporate integral Gang‐Nail teeth at each end. PosiStrut webs have a "V" shaped cross section which enables both tension and compression forces to be transmitted, eliminating the need to cut large quantities of timber components which are required with alternate construction methods.
Posi‐Strut trusses make more efficient use of timber than conventional joists, as they have timber concentrated at the top and bottom of the truss where it works most effectively. This concept is similar to that of steel universal beams, where the majority of steel is located in the flanges.
The efficient use of timber, combined with the strength of the Posi‐Strut webs, make the Posi‐Strut truss a very lightweight, yet strong structural member.
