Load-Bearing Steel Joists

Load-bearing steel joists are structural elements made of steel that support floors or roofs in buildings. They are engineered to carry the weight of the structure above, including people, furniture, and equipment, distributing that load evenly to the building’s walls or foundations. Steel joists are strong, durable, and adaptable, allowing for open spaces without many interior supports. They are typically prefabricated, making installation efficient. Overall, they are a vital part of a building's framework, ensuring safety and stability by effectively bearing and transferring loads.
