Applications

Masonite engineered timber I-Joists are used in a broad variety of both public sector and private sector floor, wall and roof projects, from schools and colleges to housing association properties and houses.  By far the greatest use of Masonite I-Joists is in the housebuilding market. With their superior dimensional stability, they are helping to minimise the costly call-backs associated with traditional timber joists which can warp, twist and shrink. For national housebuilders and regional developers Masonite I-Joists mean:

  • Faster installation compared to traditional timber
  • BBA and European Technical Approval accredited with CE marking
  • Manufactured from wood fibre certified by FSC with full chain of custody
  • Lengths up to 13.5 metres and floor systems up to 10 metres clear span

For architects and specifiers Masonite I-Joists offer:

  • A product manufactured in accordance with the requirements of ISO 9002:2000 and 14001 environmental management system
  • BBA and European Technical Approval accreditation with CE marking
  • FSC certification
  • Long lengths facilitating design flexibility through long spans

  • Fire tested by Chiltern International Fire
  • Unique separating floor system for apartments and flats
  • Flexible Building system allowing construction of timber frame buildings up to eight storeys high with internal clear spans of up to ten metres
