Roof Trusses
Prefabricated trusses are a fast, efficient, and sustainable alternative to traditional stick framing. Our roof trusses are subject to strict quality control to ensure they meet specifications and provide a structurally sound and long-lasting roof framing solution.
- All roof trusses meet local government building regulations.
- Trusses are manufactured from high-grade lumber and steel plates.
- We offer trusses in sizes to suit most residential building projects.
Floor Trusses
Floor trusses are a superior floor solution for construction companies and homeowners. They span areas that traditional joists cannot while providing space for fast installation of HVAC, electrical, and plumbing services. Homeowners benefit from products that meet or exceeds the code required deflection limits, squeak-free floors (if installed correctly) and larger open spaces than possible with traditional methods.
- Engineered to meet your project's load and stiffness requirements.
- Built with high-quality 2x4 framing lumber.

Wall Panels
Prefabricated wall panels reduce construction and materials costs without compromising structural integrity. Compared to site-built stud walls, factory-built panel walls allow for improved quality control, more consistent manufacture, and a reduced environmental footprint.
- Built to meet or exceed local and national building codes and standards.
- Reduce on-site construction and labor costs.
- Arrive on-site ready for immediate finishing.

Engineered Wood
Engineered wood products are an essential component of contemporary construction, offering versatility, strength, and environmental sustainability. We offer several varieties of engineered wood suitable for internal and external use.
- LVL, a high-strength engineered wood product, excels in construction for beams, headers, and columns with its warping resistance and sustainable manufacturing, offering a durable alternative to traditional lumber.
- I-Joists, known for their lightweight and strength, are ideal in residential and commercial construction. Their unique 'I' shape, combining laminated veneer lumber or solid sawn lumber with plywood or OSB, provides cost-effective, sturdy support for floors, roofs, and ceilings
- Rim boards, essential for framing, align perfectly with floor joists for a strong floor system. Made from materials like plywood or LVL, they ensure load distribution and structural integrity, crucial for preventing moisture damage.
- LSL, an innovative part of the structural composite lumber family, offers unmatched strength and stability for various applications, using eco-friendly processes to exceed traditional lumber performance.
- PSL, a structural composite lumber, is known for its strength and aesthetic appeal in construction. Its efficient use of smaller trees, particularly Douglas fir, makes it a sustainable choice for beams, headers, and columns.
- OSB stands out for its affordability and high strength-to-weight ratio, ideal for demanding load-bearing applications.
- CDX Fir Plywood, known for its durability, is the go-to choice for reliable sub-flooring and lumber & trusses solutions.
- ZIP System Roof and Wall Sheathing combines the structural integrity of OSB with an integrated moisture barrier, offering comprehensive protection for walls and roofs.
- AdvanTech subflooring guarantees strength, moisture resistance, and nail retention, paired with its adhesive for a firm, squeak-free floor connection.

Frequently Asked
'Truss & Framing' Questions
For structural framing, builders typically use dimensional softwoods like SPF (spruce-pine-fir), Douglas fir, or southern yellow pine because they’re strong, graded for load-bearing use, and cost-effective. For decorative interiors, hardwoods such as oak, maple, and walnut, or higher-grade softwoods, are preferred because they offer better appearance, finer grain, and can be finished more smoothly. Structural lumber is usually sold in standard grades and sizes, while appearance-grade boards and hardwoods are selected more for grain, color, and minimal defects. Matching the lumber grade to its intended use helps balance cost, strength, and aesthetics.
The Springfield area experiences hot, humid summers and cold, wet winters, so exterior lumber needs good moisture and decay resistance. Pressure-treated lumber is recommended for ground contact, decks, and outdoor framing because it resists rot and insects in these conditions. For trim and exposed areas, naturally durable species like cedar or engineered exterior trim products hold up better to repeated freeze-thaw cycles and humidity swings. Proper sealing, staining, and ventilation are also important to reduce warping, checking, and premature failure.
Prefabricated roof trusses are engineered for specific spans and loads, which can speed up installation and reduce on-site labor compared to stick framing. They often allow for longer clear spans, consistent quality, and easier planning of mechanical runs. Stick framing provides more flexibility for complex rooflines, vaulted ceilings, or last-minute design changes but typically requires more time and skilled labor. Your choice often comes down to design complexity, desired attic space, budget, and how quickly you need the roof structure installed.
Kiln-dried lumber has been dried in a controlled environment to a specific moisture content, which makes it more stable and less prone to shrinking, warping, or cupping after installation. It’s preferred for interior framing, finish work, cabinetry, and any application where dimensional stability is important. Green lumber still contains a higher moisture content and is sometimes used in exterior or rough structural applications where some movement is acceptable. Using kiln-dried material where tight tolerances and smooth finishes matter will reduce callbacks and finishing issues.
Engineered wood products such as LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams and I-joists are designed for high strength and stiffness, which helps reduce floor bounce and deflection over long spans. They are manufactured to be straight and uniform, so they’re less likely to twist, crown, or warp than solid sawn lumber. Solid sawn joists can be more economical for shorter spans or smaller projects but may require more sorting and shimming. For larger homes, open floor plans, or where exact performance is specified, engineered wood often provides more predictable results.
For exterior lumber and decks, leave proper gaps between boards for drainage, use corrosion-resistant fasteners rated for treated lumber, and seal cut ends to reduce moisture uptake. Ensure deck framing and posts have good ventilation and are kept out of standing water to minimize rot. For trusses, follow the manufacturer’s bracing and fastening details precisely, avoid field cutting or drilling in restricted zones, and protect trusses from prolonged exposure before roofing is installed. Regular inspection and timely resealing or staining will extend the life of exterior wood in local weather conditions.
