Wood Detailing
Wood detailing is an important issue in preparing a building for construction. Proper detail planning assists designers greatly in reforming the building, as well as making the production and installation process much easier and neater. In the digital age, such planning is essential to enable the transfer of digital data to digital fabrication machines
Trusses
Trusses are a structural system that combines straight short elements grouped as nodes and edges to build a big, triangulated beam structure. These beam systems can support wide spans and heavy loads. It employs a variety of force transfer methods, including compression and tension, to provide the structure the ability to behave similarly to a beam. Trusses are typically used to lift the roofs of large span buildings, and they can also be seen in civil structures, particularly bridges
Wood Truss Design & Modeling
We deliver comprehensive wood truss designs compliant with ANSI/TPI 1, TPIC, and AS 1720. Utilizing advanced associative design software like MiTek and Alpine, we optimize for cost, load capacity, and installation efficiency.
Joints
Wood details are used in all construction elements, from roofing to flooring, wall framing to cladding surfaces, thus it is critical to understand how these wood parts interact with other materials at corners, sides, and layers. The most significant aspect is how the wood interacts with other wood components from the same family. In this section, we are experimenting with how wood works in nodes. To clarify, nodes are points where wood members connect at the same origin. The plate method is the safest option, but cutting corners and defining angles is a difficult step, especially when working with remote parameters in design that drive sizes and angles up and down
Plates
Plates are steel pieces that reinforce connections between wooden parts. Using a number of bolts, and occasionally the angle of the steel plate.
FAQs:
Proper detailing ensures efficient construction, structural stability, and seamless fabrication with digital machines.
Yes, we design safe and precise joints and use steel plates for reinforcement to guarantee strength.
Definitely. We plan how wood interacts with steel, concrete, and other building materials to ensure a cohesive structure.

Cold-formed steel (also known as light gauge steel) is a versatile structural material shaped at room temperature, allowing precise, strong, and lightweight components ideal for modern construction. Unlike hot-formed steel, cold-forming retains high strength while reducing energy usage and production costs.
Key Cold-Forming Methods
Forging
Applying controlled pressure through hammers or presses to shape steel components with precision and durability.
Rolling
Passing steel sheets through rollers to create uniform profiles such as channels, angles, and tubes used in structural framing.
Stamping
Using dies and punches to cut and shape steel parts precisely for mass production of connectors and components.
Light Gauge Steel
Accelerating construction across the USA, Canada, and Australia with high-fidelity BIM modeling, shop drawings, and direct-to-machine CNC outputs.
Benefits of Cold-Formed Steel in Structural Design
High Strength-to-Weight Ratio
Strong yet lightweight components that are easier to handle and install without compromising durability.
Precision & Consistency
Tight dimensional tolerances ensure accurate assembly and reliable structural performance.
Cost-Effective
Reduced energy use and minimal material waste lower overall construction costs.
Versatility
