High strength-to-weight ratios enable massive column-free layouts and open floor configurations.
For structures like marriage halls, warehouses, aircraft hangars, and sports arenas, interior columns are highly undesirable. Conventional concrete beams are too heavy to span long distances without cracking under their own weight. Structural steel space frames and trusses provide a lightweight, high-strength solution.
At Venture Fabrications, we engineer custom bowstring, triangular, and box space trusses using hollow structural sections (HSS). This reduces dead load while maximizing span capacity, providing vast open floor plans without intermediate load-bearing columns.
