ICF Span Systems
throughSPAN can be cut and handled with the same tools used with wooden beams, and requires no welding. Save space in your ceilings by routing utilities straight through it, and increase useable space on the floor with no (or fewer) vertical supports.
throughSPAN - run utilities through your steel beams!
The application of Metwood SPANtechnologies to popular metal framing products yields a major breakthrough in construction technology. We call it throughSPAN, a smaller, lighter hybrid structural beam of incredible strength, capable of spanning greater distances with fewer vertical supports – all this while allowing the passage of utilities straight through the structural members.
Route utilities efficiently and save useable space for an ICF home with a smaller footprint. Routing general utilities and HVAC has never been easier or more cost effective than with throughSPAN. If you are making the choice to build an ICF or steel home, make it better by using the right materials. Steel framing and hybrid building materials make throughSPAN an ideal choice for any builder. Whether you are used to working with wood joists or steel beams, our product will provide the strength and versatility you need with the cost effective benefits of onsite trimming and self drilling screws.
Our steel beams can be ordered in standard lengths and trimmed, or they can be custom fabricated to exact specification. An engineering certificate is provided to insure compliance.
Combine throughSPAN with our other SPANtechnologies or use it as a component in other metal or wood framing systems. Attach wood blocking to the beams with self-drilling screws, or simply screw in to other metal frames and systems.
