PRODUCTS & SYSTEMS : Framing Systems
Every Robertson frame is designed to meet your specific building requirements. Robertson has the engineering expertise to design interiors with wide-open spaces, unusual ceiling heights and extreme load requirements. Our frame design can accommodate cranes, monorails, mezzanines and other custom requirements.
CLEAR SPAN FRAMES
Clearspan frames are most often used in buildings where unobstructed interior space is required. Common uses include aircraft hangars, arenas, tennis centers, soccer centers, riding arenas, manufacturing facilities, warehouses, offices, and retail stores. No interior colums can also provide space required for material handling and crane systems.

MULTI-SPAN FRAMES
Multi-span frames are commonly used for building layouts that permit interior columns. The spacing between columns can be consistent or varied to meet the requirements. Large open floor spaces are accommodated by using the minimum number of columns which allows large open space and easy movement of fork lifts etc. Common uses include manufacturing plants, warehouses, truck terminals and retail stores.

LEAN-TO FRAME
Primarily used for expansion or extension of a building, lean-to frames can provide additional space very economically. They are commonly used to provide additional office or storage space for a larger building.
A lean-to frame typically has a single slope profile (no ridge) and straight sidewall columns. It must be supported by the attachment to another frame. |
