SLOTTED CHANNEL AUXILIARY FRAMING

BURGESS COMPANY

SLOTTED CHANNEL AUXILIARY FRAMING

Slotted channel framing systems allow for infinite structural flexibility for medical support systems, auxiliary framing systems, storage racks, rooftop walkways and solar panel support. 

The Burgess Company team possesses a unique knowledge of how the strut components assemble with maximum structural integrity. “Strut” Systems are pieces of formed steel that are connected with special fasteners to create a structural system. You can customize Strut in multiple settings as needed: Medical, Industrial, Mechanical, Electrical, Solar Supports, and more.

Our strut metal framing systems offer a unique and flexible series of metal channels and fittings designed to support HVAC units, pipes, valves & fittings, ductwork, gas or steam lines, and many other mechanical applications. H-Strut channels are best known for the flexibility in fabrication and welded combinations that help eliminate the need for any costly extra welding. 

STRUT VS. STEEL - 

• Tolerance - Strut allows a 1/16” tolerance of levelness compared to steel that allows +or- ¼”.
• Deflection - Properly designed, strut allows less than 1/16” deflection due to load.
• Flexibility/Modifiable - Strut allows the system to be easily modified after initial installation.
• Safety/No Welding - No fire danger due to welding. Strut is bolted into place and steel requires weld permit.
• Lifetime Costs - If the use of the room changes in the future, it is much easier to remove the system and even reinstall.
• Lighter Load on Building Structure - Strut is gauged material in lieu of 1/4” or 3/16” steel
