Metal Web Floor Joist | E & H Baxendale Ltd

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 stair loads

One problem we face when designing an easi-joist floor is lack of information about stairs, plans often show stairs but rarely provide enough information to enable us to provide an accurate design and quotation. To help our customers provide us with the information we need to determine the loads to apply to the easi-joist we have put together an information sheet which along with two diagrams explains which dimensions we require to provide the most accurate quotation and design possible.

The ‘Dimensions Required for Stair Loads’ information sheet is available to download from the Downloads and easi-joist enquiry pages.

easi Does It!

Over the past seven months we have seen the number of enquiries about easi-joist double compared with the same period last year, it seems more and more people are beginning to see the advantages of the open web floor joist system and are choosing to incorporate it into their designs. Also since the post about the easi-joist attic truss was published a few weeks ago now we have had some positive interest in the product, the easi-joist attic for those who haven’t read the post is an attic or room in the roof trussed rafter with an easi-joist built into the bottom chord (the ceiling tie).

To find out more about easi-joist visit the flooring section of our website, and to find out more about the easi-joist attic truss you can either view the original post or you can visit the easi-joist roofing page of our website.

easi-joist Span Tables Updated

Wolf Systems Ltd recently began manufacturing their own metal webs for the easi-joist system, these new webs are much stronger than the original multistrut web, so I have updated the easi-joist span table with the new maximum spans which take into account the new design values for the easi-joist metal webs. The new easi-joist metal webs are stronger meaning that approximately 15 to 20% less webs can be used to achieve the same span as with the old webs or that for the same number of webs the span can be extended. To find out more visit the easi-joist sizes page.

Kensington Villa 'The Downham' 3D Roof & Floor

In early October E & H Baxendale Ltd supplied a complete easi-joist floor and roof package for the prestigious Villas at Kensington Developments Lytham Quays development. By the end of 2008 we had supplied 6 easi-joist floor packages and 4 roof packages for the development.

Today we delivered the first of 2 further Villa roof packages which Kensington Developments ordered in November. This leaves 10 further villas still to be built on site, with each villa containing approximately 100 joists each as well as a large number of roof trusses and infill timbers.

Given the current economic climate Kensington Developments along with many house builders are currently only building to order, so as of yet we don’t know when the next orders will be placed.

easi-joist is a metal web floor system designed for engineered floor applications and boasts quality performance, ease of use and design versatility. The open web system ensures there is no need to notch or drill for services. easi-joist was the first metal web floor system to have gained Robust Detail Approval, Irish Agrément Board Certification and European Technical Approval.
