Creating the Advantage with Light Gauge Steel


The Ultra-Span Light Gauge Steel Truss System delivers exceptional strength-to-weight performance for large-span and non-combustible structures. Designed for efficiency, accuracy, and adaptability, Ultra-Span enables cost-effective solutions across residential, commercial, and industrial applications.


Supported by MiTek’s global expertise and Design Make-Build approach, Ultra-Span optimises material use, accelerates installation, and ensures consistent, high-quality outcomes that transform how you design, make, and build.

THE NON-COMBUSTIBLE SOLUTION

Ultra-Span is engineered for strength, precision, and efficiency. Whether prefabricated or manufactured on-site, it delivers exceptional performance while reducing installation time and overall cost.

Available through an extensive network of licensed MiTek truss manufacturers, Ultra-Span is ideal for both local and export applications.

WHY ULTRA-SPAN®

Non-Combustible and Vermin-Proof

Ultra-Span is designed to deliver long-term durability and safety. Its non-combustible and vermin-proof properties make it a standout choice for projects requiring fire resistance and performance in harsh environments.

Versatility Across Spans

Ultra-Span supports a wide range of applications, from small residential roofs to large commercial spans of up to 35 metres, made possible by its comprehensive profile range and engineering flexibility.

Optimised Design for Strength and Efficiency

MiTek Ultra-Span trusses feature proprietary profiles engineered for maximum strength-to-weight performance, using less steel per metre. Supported by MiTek Pamir software, each design delivers precise load calculations and material efficiency tailored to specific project requirements.

Ease of Assembly and Installation

Ultra-Span trusses can be prefabricated or manufactured on-site for fast, accurate assembly. Large roof sections can be preassembled on the ground and lifted into place, making Ultra-Span a practical, efficient solution for large-span structures.
