CREATING THE ADVANTAGE IN LIGHT GAUGE STEEL Is your roof too large to be done with pre-fabricated timber roof trusses? Do you want to supply low cost roofs or simply prefer non-combustible roof structures? Whatever your needs, MiTek’s Ultra-Span has got you covered. Ultra-Span is a light gauge steel roof truss system that is both lightweight and compact for easy handling and economical transportation. Engineered designs are calculated using MiTek’s state of the art, in-house developed 20/20 software and provides economical roofing solutions. The low mass per m 2 of this roofing system ensures both savings on the supporting structure as well as on transportation and erection costs whilst also being vermin proof and non-combustible. Advantages of the Ultra-Span light gauge steel truss system: • Elegant simple system, with all members straight and true for a level roof. • Span capability from small low-cost to large 40m clear span commercial structures. • Ultra-Span trusses can be supplied in “kit-form” (low-cost housing or other remote projects). • Longevity of product due to galvanized coating plus inherent properties of non-combustibility, resistance to borer and fungus attack. • Lower weight reduces transportation costs & improves handling and erection. • Ease of truss manufacture with screws and electric fixing tool directly on site or in factory conditions.
