throughSPAN - Reinforced Metal Beams / Joists

Can You Route Utilities Right Through YOUR Metal Beams?! With throughSPAN You Can!

When it comes to beams and floor joists, Metwood puts the competition to shame. Metwood's throughSpan light gauge steel beams are unbeatable, covering longer spans with fewer vertical supports, while saving space and time. No welding required.

Developed in cooperation with popular floor joist manufacturers, throughSPAN incorporates Metwood's patented SPANtechnologies to create a new Hybrid Beam of incredible strength that allows the passage of utilities right the structural member.

Light gauge steel construction reinforced with rebar allows this flooring system to support concrete flooring and heavy loads.

Five reasons to choose Metwood metal beams:

  • Stronger.  Metwood's light gauge steel beams are reinforced with rebar and are much stronger than wood beams, allowing for longer spans with no vertical support.
  • Lighter. throughSpan beams/joists are lighter than typical steel beams.
  • Galvanized. Rust and corrosion are problems of the past, since Metwood products are treated for maximum resistance to corrosion.
  • Field Trimmable. Metwood beams are easily cut and installed at the job site without welding or metalworking.
  • Designed For Utilities. throughSpan is specifically designed to allow you to run electrical, plumbing, and HVAC right through the beam.  What could be simpler?
  • Ready For Nails.  Metwood metal beams can be shipped with factory applied wood, which allows you to nail, screw, or glue anything you need to directly to the beam.
  • Competitively Priced. You can afford to do things the best way when you use Metwood Products.

Metwood beams are stronger, lighter, more durable, and much easier to use than any other beam or joist you'll find.  Metwood = Innovation! Save space, save time, and build a better structure.

Can your floor beam do this?

How about a 38' x 34' foot basement with no vertical supports? This was accomplished with just 14" inches of height, using a cambered truSPAN Beam, with no welding required!

How do truSpan and throughSpan differ?

The only difference between truSpan and throughSpan metal beams is that throughSpan allows you to route utilities directly through the middle of the beam.
