Steel joists with flush-frame end connections offer significant weight savings compared to wide-flange beams while providing equivalent stiffness and vibration performance. An innovative design from the engineers at New Millennium, our connections feature a joist reaction point designed to occur at the center line of the wide-flange girder. This better-performing design eliminates girder torsion concerns during erection and/or due to final design loading of a perimeter wide-flange girder.
Simplifying the flush-frame specification process, our published set of standards improve coordination between the specifier, joist manufacturer, steel fabricator and erector. Our standards for flush-frame end connections reduce design time, accelerate joist and girder fabrication and streamline erection.
