Secondary Structural Steelwork

We don’t just sell panels; we help you calculate, create, and source the complete structural support package to support your cladding and insulation loads. From roof purlins and side rails to eaves beams and mezzanine floors, we identify every detail needed to create a compatible and compliant design.

Our range of secondary steelwork systems includes purlins, side rails, eaves beams, mezzanine floors, and more — all engineered to be compatible with modern roofing and walling systems. Whether you’re constructing a steel-framed agricultural shed or a large-span industrial unit, our components are designed to integrate seamlessly with your chosen panel systems and comply with the right design standards for your build.

To enhance this offering further, we can also provide design calculations and technical support for your build. This includes span and loading calculations, purlin optimisation and uplift resistance, and connection detailing and bracket positioning. These steps ensure all steelwork is designed in line with cladding requirements, reducing site changes and ensuring regulatory compliance.

Cold-rolled purlins and rails

We supply a full selection of cold-rolled steel sections for your building envelope projects. Each system can be configured for single span, double span, or sleeved configurations, offering flexibility for most construction types. Our products are also pre-punched to specification for quick, accurate fixing.

Our product portfolio includes:

  • Zed, Cee, and Sigma profiles
  • Depths from 140 mm to 300 mm
  • Gauges from 1.4 mm to 3.0 mm
  • Anti-sag bars, struts, cleader angles, and all required brackets

Mezzanine floor beams

Our mezzanine floor systems are fabricated using lipped C-section beams, optimised for strength and cost-efficiency. They are suitable for storage areas, plant decks and platforms, and equipment mezzanines. Plus, all designs account for loading, floor decking integration, and support bracing, and are supplied ready to install with fixings and supports.
