UNISTRUT Metal Framing
• Unistrut Metal Framing is the 100% adjustable, 100% reusable, bolted solution for your secondary structural steel supports
• Commonly used to support electrical conduit, cable trays, process piping, duct work
• Unistrut is the Original Metal Framing Company
• Still 100% Made in America at our plants in Harvey, IL and Wayne, MI
UNISTRUT
•Industry Standard for Electrical and Mechanical Supports
•Commonly used supports for pipes and conduit sizes from ½” to 6”•Increasingly Being Used in Pre Fabricated Service Modules in Modular Construction Designs
Unistrut Metal Framing System
Overview
Unistrut Channel Profiles
•Standard Channel profile is 1 5/8” by 1 5/8”•Available in deeper and shallow profiles to accommodate the load you are trying to support•Most Channel Profiles are available in 12, 14, or 16 ga.

Unistrut Benefits• Adjustability- The inherent properties of the Unistrut Metal
Framing System allow for the support structure to be positioned or adjusted to suit any changing equipment room layouts (unlike welded steel structures).
• Mechanical Connections- The Unistrut Metal Framing connections allow for installations to be done with standard hand tools thereby eliminating the need for special jobsite welding accommodations.
• Adaptability- The Unistrut Metal Framing System has multiple channel profiles that enable the Unistrut Construction design team to develop a solution to meet virtually a limitless variety of projects.
• Fast & Efficient- The bolt-together design of the Unistrut Metal framing System allows our experienced installation team to finish installations much faster than most welded steel structures allow.
• Design/Assistance- Unistrut can offer design assistance from start to finish.
Roofwalks, Crossovers, Catwalks
Roofwalks Rooftop Walkways
• United Interlock Grating • Lightweight aluminum or pre-galvanized grating
sections reduce overall Roofwalk system dead load on the roofing structure compared to conventional methods (concrete pads, etc).
• Provides a safe walkway for rooftop traffic.Protects the roof from foot traffic and costly repairs.
• Galvanized steel & aluminum panels resist weather.• Attaches to all standing-seam roofs including
metric.• Utilizes non-penetrating roof anchoring systems.• Remains visible during all types of weather (snow,
heavy rain, etc)
Libya Roofwalk
• General Contractor in Libya needed to provide a safe means of access to rooftop equipment.
• Special Considerations:
▫ Located on the coast, material finish was important
▫ Aggressive Schedule
▫ Inexperienced Workforce in Libya
