Site-Built Construction
Universal Forest Products has built a
reputation for designing and manufacturing
premium building components, and
for the unparalleled service and
expertise that come with them. That’s
why the nation’s leading builders —
and regional builders from coast to
coast — turn to Universal to help build
their homes, apartments, commercial
buildings and success.
Universal is known for designing
innovative, engineered building
products and for supplying components
exactly when and where they’re needed.
We’re also known for driving costs out
of products and processes. That
means we can help our customer’s
bottom line while making sure our
products meet and exceed codes
and expectations.
Universal offers a range of floor
trusses, roof trusses, wall panels and
floor systems that simplify building
projects. Take our revolutionary
Open Joist®. Its finger-jointed, open-
web design provides superior load-
carrying capability. In addition, the
design allows electrical, plumbing
and HVAC systems to be “threaded”
through the webs, concealing them
from view.
Here are some of our other products:
Roof Trusses
Our roof trusses reduce the variables
of building, because they’re designed
to your specifications. And you save
valuable time by using these
preassembled components on site.
Framing
Universal is your single source for all
framing needs. We do it all, from
roofs, walls and floors to installation.
We provide materials and engineered
wood components, design and
engineering services, construction
management, and installation labor
for your framing project.
Universal: Framing success one customer ata time.
Wall Panels
Like our other engineered wood
products, our wall panels save you
time, money and guesswork. All of
our wall panels are developed by
skilled technicians using sophisticated
computer modeling software. The
software assists with the development
of accurate shop drawings that are
then used to fabricate the wall panels
to a building designer’s specific
requirements. The result? Building
components precision fitted to exact
specifications. You’ll receive a layout
for a complete wall system with
framed-in openings for windows,
doors and headers, exactly as
detailed on the plans.
I-Joists
Universal carries a complete line of
I-joists for all applications — from
solid-sawn flanges to LVL flanges.
Stronger, straighter, and more
consistent in quality than dimension
lumber, our I-joists are lightweight
and yield less waste during installation.
OPEN JOIST®
Open Joist from Universal Forest
Products is a revolutionary, open-web,
all-wood floor truss engineered for
long spans and superior load-carrying
capabilities. Open Joist is lightweight,
safe to handle and can be trimmed
on the job site for exact fit.
Open Joist trusses are individually
tested to more than twice their
strength. Precision finger joinery
and waterproof structural adhesive
are used in Open Joist's assembly
process to produce a stronger, more
resilient wood-to-wood connection,
resulting in enhanced floor system
performance.
Plated Floor Trusses
Universal’s open-web trusses are
custom made to fit exact specifications,
so you won’t have to cut them on
the job. As with Open Joist, our
plated trusses’ open-web configuration
allows builders to easily install
mechanical systems.
