In modern steel construction, purlins and girts play an extremely important role. These structural elements directly affect the strength, stability, and safety of the entire building.
Purlins – the foundation of a stable roof
Purlins are horizontal load-bearing elements whose main function is to transfer the weight of the roof to trusses or columns. They are most commonly made from Z-profiles and high-corrosion-resistance steel sheets.
Why use steel purlins?
High load capacity with low self-weight
Corrosion and weather resistance
Fast and hassle-free installation
Girts – ensuring wall rigidity
Girts, most often manufactured from C-profiles, provide wall stiffening and transfer lateral loads such as wind. Their presence ensures the durability of the entire structure.
Benefits of using steel girts:
Increased stability of side walls
Custom sizing options
Easy installation and adjustment
Steel purlins and girts should always be designed with environmental conditions, load types, and building specifications in mind. Contact our team if you need expert support in selecting the right structural solutions.
