Services
Primary Steel Frame Systems
Ceco's primary steel frames provide structural integrity for metal buildings, supporting full bay loading with clear span and multi-span options. These systems include interior frames, end frames, and crane systems, engineered to meet local codes. Ideal for warehouses, industrial facilities, and commercial spaces requiring durable, adaptable frameworks.
Secondary Steel Frame Systems
Secondary systems include purlins, girts, and eave struts, forming durable cold-formed steel components. Designed to complement primary frames, they ensure structural stability while allowing design flexibility. Suitable for roofing and wall support in commercial and industrial buildings, adhering to ASTM standards for strength and longevity.
Metal Building Bracing
Ceco's bracing systems, including diaphragm, X-bracing, and portal frames, enhance wind and seismic resistance. Custom-engineered to meet project-specific loads, these systems ensure safety and compliance. Solutions like rod, cable, and angle bracing provide adaptability for commercial and industrial applications requiring robust structural support.
Hypersteel Buildings
Hypersteel cold-formed buildings offer rapid design and construction, ideal for projects needing speed and cost efficiency. Utilizing lightweight, welded-free steel, these structures provide durability and ease of assembly. Perfect for agricultural, recreational, and commercial uses where accelerated timelines and simplified installation are critical.
Long Bay System
The Long Bay System enables column-free interiors with open-web trusses, optimizing space for warehouses and manufacturing facilities. This system reduces material and labor costs while speeding up construction. Compatible with multiple roofing and wall systems, it supports bays up to 60 feet for versatile, large-scale projects.
