Long Spans
I-Joists can span up to a whopping 32' without support, giving custom home builders the ability to create open floor plans that customers demand.
LVL Flange
An LVL flange is critical for a high-performing floor because it prevents squeaky floors in two ways: 1) the LVL flange holds fasteners better, preventing loose nails that cause squeaks, and 2) it will not shrink over time with the moisture change, which is another common cause of squeaks.
Engineered for Consistency
All TJI Joists will be perfectly straight and will not twist, warp, or cup.
Allow for spacing for HVAC, Electrical, and Plumbing
Large holes can be cut in the webbing of TJI Joists, allowing for mechanicals to be easily run and installed. Joists can also be spaced wider than traditional solid sawn joists which allows for quicker and easier installation.
Fast and Easy Install
All TJI Joists are designed using patented software that designs a floor tailor-made for every home. This software creates a layout and specifies where every single framing member goes. When the material arrives on the job site, there is minimal cutting, and carpenters know exactly where every joist goes.

Wood Beam - I-Joist Dimensions & Drawings
Wood beams are a popular choice for construction because they are strong, lightweight, and sustainable. Wood beams are also easy to work with and can be customized to fit any project. In addition, wood beams can help to improve the energy efficiency of a building.
Because wood beams are organic products, they are susceptible to shrinking, swelling, rot, and fire. These factors can weaken the structure of a building and pose a safety hazard.
