AGRICULTURAL
Trusses play a vital role in supporting the structural integrity of buildings, especially in sectors like agriculture, where they need to withstand various stressors like heavy loads from equipment, wind, and even the weight of crops in storage. Their design and materials are often chosen with durability and resilience in mind, ensuring they can endure harsh environmental conditions over extended periods. This reliability makes them valuable not only in agricultural settings but also in industrial and civic applications where sturdy construction is essential for safety and longevity.
COMMERCIAL
Floor and roof wood trusses in commercial buildings must be carefully designed, engineered, installed, and maintained to ensure they meet the structural and safety requirements of the building while providing reliable support for the intended loads and environmental conditions.
RESIDENTIAL
Residential wood trusses play a crucial role in providing structural support, space efficiency, customization options, and cost-effective construction solutions for a wide range of residential building projects.
DESIGN
CIT truss designers determine truss configuration, member sizes, joint connections, and load capacities to meet the specific requirements of a building project. CIT uses advanced MiTek software and engineering to create efficient and optimized lumber truss designs tailored to each construction project's needs. Design considerations include factors like span, roof pitch, snow loads, and wind loads, to ensure that each truss provides adequate strength and stability.
MANUFACTURING
The building process involves cutting, shaping, and assembling materials according to precise engineering specifications and design requirements that are then closely inspected for quality assurance. Specialized equipment and machinery, such as truss presses and saws, are used in the manufacturing process to efficiently create extremely accurate and unique truss styles.
DELIVERY
Truss delivery is a coordinated effort between the team making and loading the trusses, the drivers hauling them, and the builders ready to put them up. All truss loads are meticulously secured during transportation preventing unnecessary wear and tear. Trusses arrive at the job site in top condition, ready for installation.
CUSTOMER RELATIONS
The sales team, here at CIT, prides itself on excellent communication, providing information about truss designs, specifications, and pricing. We will address all inquiries, providing technical support, and assisting with order processing, delivery scheduling, and after-sales support to ensure that every job meets and exceeds industry standards.
