NEW AT DAHLSENS! A SMARTER WAY TO BUILD A ROOF
New and game-changing from your Dahlsens truss and frame team! The benefits of the Pryda SpeedTruss™ preinstalled screws system are loud and clear to customers who have jumped on board. Find out for yourself how you too can save time – here’s the low down.
SAY BYE TO TRIPLE G RIPS AND SKE W NAILING!
A new approach to roof truss design and installation, Pryda’s prefabricated SpeedTruss functions like an assembly kit, incorporating pre-installed screws. The innovation reduces truss installation time by removing temporary fixing, and gets a thumbs up from certifiers for the accuracy it enforces on truss installation. Builders tell us the Pryda SpeedTruss measures up to claims made in the company’s signature marketing slogan – build safer, faster, smarter, and easier. We put the question to Scott Russell, the construction manager at Tribeca Homes, Victoria (pictured above, left of middle). Here’s what he said:
STAND IT UP
“The Pryda SpeedTruss is a great system – our tradies are loving it – because it speeds up the job and the screws produce a quality result,” he said. “Once screwed in, the truss stands by itself, so there’s no need for temporary fixing, which makes it so much easier to line up the TGs,” he says.
“It completely replaces the need for triple grips, which saves a huge amount of time onsite. My certifier reckons it’s great, too. We expect to use the SpeedTruss on all our jobs”. SQUARE IT UP
Further developments underway at Dahlsens' manufacturing plants will soon add Pryda’s patent pending Hinge-Out system to truss assemblies, allowing builders to hinge the jack truss off the girder truss to create a stable connection and plumb and straighten girders automatically, saving even more time. Place your roof truss and screw it down. Quick, smart. > Save a day’s work – even more > Reduce installation time and improve safety > Work safer at heights
