US Frame Factory manufactures ultra-span metal trusses for roof sand floors with clear spans up to 80 ft and hurricane level wind-loads. Using a light weight space effective Cold-Formed Steel (CFS ) system we make trusses for commercial/retails buildings and multi-family construction of any size.

Ultra-Span Metal Roof Trusses
Welding free assembly allow competitive prices compared to other metal truss options. Utra-Span is the most common used cold formed steel truss with 1000s of projects across the US built with it every year.


US Frame Factory uses MiTek software to do in-house engineering and provides clients with competitive bids based on plans. Flexible manufacturing allows use to tackle complex roof shapes which wood trusses struggle with. Also steel is able to span farther verses metal. A unique steel shape allows for a level of stiffness over long lengths. In the end you have a product with less weight and more strength than which is possible with any wood beam.

Back to Back Metal Trusses


Using in house steel roll-forming we manufacture metal studs and fabricate steel trusses for commercial and residential use. This is ideal for smaller commercial or simple residential houses. The profile of the trusses is a simple C-shape exactly standard steel studs for walls. Ideally we’re only spanning up to 40′ with this system. This is what a typical steel drawing looks like.

These metal trusses are light-weight. They allow for plenty of HVAC and other piping to be ran as well as a decent sized attic space. On-site assembly is easy with custom clip brackets.

Ultra-Span Floor Metal Trusses
Flat metal roof trusses are structural components that are designed to support the weight of a flat metal roof. The trusses consist of a series of interconnected triangles that distribute the weight of the roof evenly across the structure. The triangles help to provide stability and prevent any sagging or bending of the roof.
Ultra-Span floor trusses have the ability to accommodate large clear spans without the need for internal columns or supports. This can provide more design flexibility for architects and builders, allowing for open and airy commercial spaces.

Use metal trusses to help you get LEED certification
Using metal trusses in a building project can help achieve LEED certification by contributing to sustainable materials, energy efficiency, indoor environmental quality, and reduced waste. Metal trusses are often made from recycled materials, provide clear spans for large spaces, have low risk of mold growth, and are easily recyclable. The specific LEED credits that can be achieved will depend on the overall design and construction of the building project.
Tax incentives are available through LEED. The amount of the deduction varies depending on the level of energy efficiency achieved, but it can be up to $1.80 per square foot for buildings that achieve the highest level of energy efficiency.
Wood vs metal trusses?
Metal Trusses
- Durability: Metal trusses are more durable and long-lasting than wood trusses and can withstand severe weather conditions, such as hurricanes and earthquakes.
- Fire Resistance: Metal trusses are non-combustible and provide greater fire resistance than wood trusses.
- Sustainability: Metal trusses can be made from recycled materials, and they are 100% recyclable at the end of their useful life. Use metal trusses to help you get the highest level of LEED certification.
Wood Trusses
- Cost: Wood trusses are generally less expensive than metal trusses, especially for smaller buildings.
