Timber Frame Constructions

Timber Frame and Truss Constructions – Tough Enough to Last

Timber frame constructions are some of the oldest, most dependable construction methods in the world. And there’s good reason. For the price nothing is stronger, more durable or more reliable. Choosing a prefabricated frame and truss continues this fine tradition, offering all the benefits of expensive alternatives at a much lower cost:

Structural adequacy
Flexible design

Quick and easy installation
Minimal site theft

This means you don’t have to worry about going over budget when building beautiful, durable homes. Homes you can be sure will hold up to the harsh Australian climate because a timber frame and truss is engineered and considers the following in its design:

Local wind conditions

Expected loads on the roof

Simplifying installation

Integrated Job Management

A significant point of difference in the licensed Pryda fabricator’s offer is how they manage your job. They take ownership from the point of quotation right through to delivery. Using Pryda’s Production Management software suite, they schedule your job into the calendar at the required delivery date and plan their work process back from this point.

Pryda manufacturers understand that the erection of trusses and frames can sometimes be complex. They try to take away this headache by not only labelling the trusses and frames, but also delivering and stacking them in the order they are to be erected.

By ordering both your trusses and frames from a licensed Pryda fabricator you can be sure that the “right hand will be talking to the left hand.” As part of a fully engineered system, they will ensure that the critical studs, wall plates, lintels and various tie downs and restraints are designed to support the roof and upper storey loads. It is their job to oversee the design and manufacturing of the entire system.

Transport

Pryda fabricators have a fleet of crane trucks that deliver trusses and frames to site. The crane ensures safe and easy lifting. Where appropriate, the timber roof trusses will be lifted onto the top plate of wall frames to save the carpenter from strenuous lifting. Deliveries are in accordance with local acts, regulations, codes of practice and Australian standards.
