easi-joist enquiry form updated!

Today I updated the easi-joist enquiry form, so you can now enquire about stud walls, flat roofs, and the usual floor joists, not at the same time though. As part of the update I have now added text boxes for quantity, span, and length of run, fields which I should have included first time round but forgot all about.


easi-joist Attic Trusses

In recent weeks we have had a number of requests for information about the combined easi-joist and attic room in the roof truss, so I have put together a brief information sheet, which shows one of our most recent easi-joist attic truss designs. The pdf can be downloaded from the ‘downloads‘ page and the ‘easi-joist roofing’ page as well as by clicking on the link below.

New Domains

As part of the big re-arrange of the website hosting, and our domains, I can now confirm that three new domains, www.eandhbaxendale.ltd.uk , www.eandhbaxendale.co.uk and www.easi-joist-timberframe.biz are now live and are just another way of making our website even more accessible to the masses.  Using the new features available to me via cpanel I am now able to ‘park’ multiple domains on one website, meaning whichever addresss you use you will be able to access our full website, with our previous web host, I could only forward www.baxtruss.co.uk to www.eandhbaxendale.com which had the dissadvantage of not being able to provide full page addresses such as www.baxtruss.co.uk/site-map.

Over the next few weeks I hope to setup a new page on the website specifcally about using easi-joist to create timber frame properties, using the Boars Den Barn project as an example, once that is in place I will then setup a redirect on the www.easi-joist-timberframe.biz domain to take visitors directly to it.  I wasn’t actually planning on purchasing the .biz domain but .net magazine and domainmonster.com were offering a free domain to each reader, so who would turn that down, and while pondering over what domain to get the Boars Den Barn project popped into my head, so thats when I decided on www.easi-joist-timberframe.biz


easi-joist at any angle

I have now added a couple of illustrations to flickr, one of which we are using in our easi-joist information sheet for 2010. As the image says, easi-joist is a metal web joist system that can be used to form walls, floors, flat and pitched roofs, easi-joist simply is the whole house engineering product.

Building on the Isle of Man

So your planning a new build or even renovating an existing property on the Isle of Man and want the best for your roof and/or floor, well we can help with that.  One of the services we provide is design and manufacturer of trussed rafters and easi-joist metal web floor joists on behalf of Builders Merchants. On the Isle of Man we provide this service to MFBP Building Supplies in Douglas and Island Timber & Building Materials Ltd in Ballasalla. (Contact details at bottom of this post)

So why not give them a call or pay them a visit with all the details about your project.  They will then contact us, we will produce a design, and when requested manufacture your roof or floor, we will then ship your order to the docks, were MFBP or Island Timber will then take over and deliver your order to site.

One of the biggest projects on the Isle of Man that we have been involved with was for the Isle of Man Government in 2002, we designed and manufactured the roof’s for the Southern Group Health Practice and the Ambulance Station both of which are located in Port Erin.  Combined the two buildings consisted of well over 1000 trussed rafters, as well as additional infill timbers and metal fixings.  The entire project took about 50 hours in total to manufacture, we broke it up into five phases which were manufactured and delivered over a period of a couple of weeks, mainly because the size of each delivery is restricted to allow it to fit on the ferry but also so that we could continue manufacturing for our other customers as well.
