At Giant Engineering, we are proud to be a leading supplier and manufacturer of Timber Roof Trusses in South Africa. Our expertly designed trusses are the backbone of countless residential homes and light commercial buildings, offering not just structural support but also design flexibility, cost-efficiency, and long-lasting performance. Whether you’re working on a small home project or a large commercial roof, we have the perfect timber truss solution to meet your needs.
We design our timber roof trusses using two carefully selected types of timber: SA Pine and Biligom.
SA Pine Timber Trusses: SA Pine is widely known for its attractive, natural look. It’s the material of choice when you want exposed roof trusses to become a feature in your space. From rustic homes to stylish commercial interiors, SA Pine trusses create a warm, inviting atmosphere. While visually appealing, they are also strong and reliable, providing excellent support for various roof designs.
Biligom Timber Trusses: Biligom is the heavy lifter of the two — it’s significantly stronger than Pine and is the go-to choice for cost-effective, non-exposed roofing applications. When the trusses are hidden from view, Biligom delivers exceptional strength and durability at a lower cost, making it perfect for larger projects or budget-conscious builds.
Our timber trusses can span from 600mm up to 15 meters with ease, offering flexibility for architects, builders, and homeowners alike. Each truss is precision-designed using cutting-edge MiTek Industries software, ensuring accuracy, strength, and full compliance with South African building standards.
