Pryda - Steel Roof Truss System

"The Engineered Solution from the Truss Specialist"

Pryda Steel Roof Truss System provides for a total system approach to Light Gauge Steel Trusses' by providing both the hardware (patented Steelfast steel sections, Pryda fixing accessories and Steelfix screws) and the software (computer programmes, manufacturing and installation knowledge).

Efficiently shaped Z-sections are combined with C-sections in a truss resulting in a high performance yet practical structural solution.

Proprietary Pryda software is highly advanced and intuitive. Its easy-to-use feature allows fast design through-put and includes detailed fabrication information in a single operation.

THE PRYDA STEEL ROOF TRUSS ADVANTAGES

Prefabrication offers you the following advantages to your projects:

• Low site workers requirement due to the simplified approach to   construction
• Reduction of building materials on your site – space is   premium in today’s construction
  sites
• Fast and clean because most of the preparation works are   done in Pryda’s manufacturing
  facility
• Safer building site because Pryda Licensed Fabricators only   employs highly skilled
  labourers and supervisors to conduct   the works at site
• COST REDUCTION due to an overall reduction in construction period

EXPERIENCE

• Company core business in roof truss industry since   1964
• Expert knowledge of roof truss technology
• Long established fabricator network staffed by experienced   personnel
• Continual R & D activities in Australia, Malaysia & Indonesia   to enhance system
   performance
