Impressive display of cassette flooring

Multinail australia recently held an open day for builders, fabricators, timber suppliers and architects at their new head office in stapylton to demonstrate the laying of floor cassettes.

In an impressive display, more than 324m2 of flooring was lifted and laid out in 43 minutes. Temporary safety barriers were put in place prior to laying the cassettes so people could walk on the newly laid floor immediately. This enabled framing and other work to commence immediately and gave onlookers a real-time demonstration of the product.

FTMa australia is pleased with the innovations Multinail has progressed with prefabricated floor cassettes. It’s fantastic to see more and more companies in the sector adopting the technology.

Things don’t happen overnight but I have no doubt the next step will be breaking into the exciting new opportunities the mid-rise market will bring to our sector, which FTMa is working on with their new Market Implementation Group.

2017 FTMA Australia National Conference

The largest australian fabricator-attended event is coming to the sanctuary cove Intercontinental resort on the Gold coast on Monday 15 and Tuesday 16 May.

This year the FTMa australia Board has focused the conference discussion on key topics and issues for our industry, including:

• Knowing your production costs

• avoiding shonky builders and getting paid for your work

• Fabricators responsibility in Ohs & Industrial relations

• housing forecasts and changes in the housing market

• Prefabricated floors and where our industry has been working

• Mid-rise opportunities for our sector: It doesn’t all need to be panelised

• understanding Fit for Purpose timber

• Timber Treatment; and

• Is steel a threat to our industry?

This year is all about hearing from you, so there will be panel discussions and questions from the floor throughout the two days.

Networking opportunitiesMonday 15 Maya host of activities will be on offer as part of the red activities Day on sunday 14 May at the resort. Join us and your industry colleagues for a round of golf at the impressive sanctuary cove Golf and country club Palms course or for a casual game of bare foot bowls.

For the motor heads in the group, FTMa will also be hosting an official ice breaker session at Dream World’s Peter Brock centre, which hosts Peter Brock’s enviable collection of cars. Various activities will be organised to get your blood pumping and promote some healthy competition, including some skills testing on the V8 simulators, with the top six scorers racing it out for the FTMa Fastest Driver award.

Dodgem cars, food and beverages will also be in the mix, so it’s sure to be a great night.

Tuesday 16 MayThe conference wraps up with the National conference Dinner at the resort’s Lagoon on Tuesday 16 May. This year the dinner is themed hawaiian Luau, so come along in your favourite hawaiian shirt, grass skirt or perhaps even a few coconuts!

The dinner will be a relaxed opportunity to network with your industry colleagues and witness the presentation of the inaugural clive Martella service to Industry award. This year the worthy recipient/s has been selected by a panel including Phil Mccormack, Michael read, Doug Maxwell and steve collier for making a huge contribution to our industry.

The construction of Multinail’s new head office at Stapylton is continuing at a rapid pace. With no time required for form work or curing a concrete floor, work could continue immediately after the floor cassettes were installed in early February. Throughout this process Multinail has been able to save upwards of 10 weeks of construction time without scaffolding due to the use of this fantastic light weight, pre-fabricated technology.


Developed by Multinail engineers, the SteelWood Joist (SWJ) is a newly configured structural truss that can be used in a variety of construction scenarios, such as flooring and roofing applications, and is suitable for single or multi-storey construction.

The versatile structure, manufactured from solid timber and galvanised steel to minimise corrosion, can

Steelwood Joistachieve floor spans of up to 10 metres and roof spans of up to 20 metres with most sheet roofing materials.

The robust SWJ is ideal for loads from 3kPa to 7.5kPa, making it suitable for office spaces, schools and stage floors, for example.

Commercial construction

opportunities in roofs

and floors


Commercial Floor CassettesFloor cassettes offer architects, engineers, builders and contractors a cost effective way to construct a complete working floor for single or multi-story residential, commercial or industrial buildings in a matter of hours.

With the ability to pre-fabricate up to 10 metre lengths of flooring at 3kPa off site, and deliver when required, SteelWood joist floor cassettes enable builders and contractors to efficiently manage construction schedules and save considerable time on site.

Factory Management SystemFMS capabilities


Capabilities: The information provided to factory workers

Factory workers have complete access to all data and details for the job at each station in both text and graphic formats. This is much more than what is currently available via a paper system.

Factory workers have complete access to all data and details for the job at each station in both text and graphic formats. This is much more than what is currently available via a paper system.

For example, the detailer can update the manufacturing details on the detailing program with notes and/or detailed drawings and this information is then displayed at the individual work station. This means no separate paper is required to inform the factory floor and all details are stored as part of the job in the system.

The controller can also ‘automatically’ allocate work and sort the priorities of the work for each station based on truss type, spans and heights. This will save time for the controller when allocating jobs to the jigs.

Gable truss supported on end wall C4-02-03

Figure C4-02-03-01 Gable-end truss supported inside of end wall

Figure C4-02-03-02 Gable-end truss set fl ush inside of end wall, with supporting blocks

a gable-end truss can either be supported by the gable wall or be free spanning. These two supporting conditions will signifi cantly affect the design of a gable-end truss, so the supporting condition must be confi rmed prior to design.

NOTE: Gable-end studs should be of suffi cient size and grade to resist all roof dead, live and wind loads on gable end. The studs should be spaced at centres to provide adequate support to fi x brickwork or cladding.

Where a gable-end truss is designed to be supported by the end wall, either the truss is sitting on the end wall or is set fl ush with the inside of end wall, the fi xing details shown in Figure c4-02-03-01 or Figure c4-02-03-02 shall be required, as appropriate.

The Multinail technical manual is continually updated with new details on a regular basis. This is why it is important to always check the HUB at www.multinail.net for the latest updates. Fabricators should not rely on old documents as these will not be current.

Technical details - Gable end details

One recent detail many fabricators will find beneficial is the new information on gable ends (below). This illustrate to builders how a cut-down gable end goes together. It’s also important to note that all gable ends require a structural fascia to support the verge rafter corner.

External Wall Bearing SteelWood

Type 1: Walls parallel to SteelWood joist

SteelWood Joists may be used to distribute load from an upper-storey load-bearing

wall to a load-bearing lower-storey wall provided the following conditions are met:

The lower-storey wall frame provides continuous support to the

SteelWood Joist. SteelWood joist must be placed in line with both

walls.

Studs, wall plates and lintels have been sized in accordance with the

relevant Tables from AS1684.

Figure E4-01-01-01 SteelWood Joist to Support Roof Load

Option 1A - Ladder Truss

A ladder truss is a SteelWood nogged out. This forms a dwarf wall with verticals designed as wall studs and chords designed as ribbon plates in AS1684.

Most of the SteelWood webs can be eliminated if convenient, and the studs spread to conventional stud spacing. Only the SteelWood webs required to prevent racking of the

dwarf wall need to be included.
