Boxspan Roof Frames

Roof frames, rafters, roof beams & lintels

Boxspan roof frames and rafters are suitable for use with both steel and timber framed homes. Boxspan is extremely efficient in roof framing. Long spans and light weight make architectural such as cathedral ceilings, exposed trusses and roomy lofts more feasible than ever. Boxspan is also used in commercial roof applications such as schools.
