JJI-Joists

A JJI-Joist is a structurally engineered timber joist, combining high-grade softwood with an engineered composite panel. Using advanced technology these components are combined to produce an innovative alternative to conventional construction timber. They are produced on the first purpose-made I-joist production line in the UK, custom built to produce JJI-Joists to UK preferred dimensions.

Product Range & Specification

JJI-Joists are available in a range of sizes familiar to the UK Construction Industry with joist depths ranging from 145mm to 450mm. JJI-Joists are constructed from 9mm OSB web and C24 softwood flanges ranging from 45mm to 97mm in width.

Due to the unique form of the JJI-Joist British Board of Agrément Approval, it is possible to design and produce large volumes of non-standard JJI-Joists to allow for particular span and depth situations that cannot be covered by the standard range.

The standard range of products available is indicated in the following table.
