Trus Joist
Value-Added with Quality

Trus Joist's Silent Floor® System continues to set the standard for engineered solutions in residential framing challenges. That's why it was the perfect solution in the execution of reduced cycle time integral to the construction of the NAHB Show Village Home by D.R. Horton's Torrey Homes Division.

The Silent Floor® System is the benchmark of quality. When integrated into the frame of a house, it significantly increases the value and structural quality of the home. TJI® joists, the heart of the structural system, have the length and strength to add a new dimension. Long length TJI® joists make for faster, easier installation with no price premium for length.

Also featured at the Show Village Home is Trus Joist's newest proprietary technology: TimberStrand® LSL. TimberStrand® LSL Rim Board, Headers and Beams offer predictable strength, outstanding weatherability and tremendous dimensional stability to eliminate twisting and shrinkage.

Through nearly four decades of research and real world experience, Trus Joist has developed technologies that allow them to take the natural strengths of wood and reconfigure them in ways that make them more efficient. This results in a better performing floor that uses fewer trees. Their process of creating these materials also allows them to use more of each tree and lets the builder build with less waste. A stronger home doesn't have to weaken the environment.Trus Joist's goal is to provide builders with the best possible products today -- through advanced manufacturing technology and resource utilization -- to ensure builders the best possible products tomorrow.
