Timber & Wood Roof Trusses – Giant Engineering
Superior Strength, Durability & Precision
At Giant Engineering, we specialize in the design, manufacture, and installation of prefabricated timber and wood roof trusses. Serving Pretoria, Gauteng, and beyond, our trusses are engineered to meet SANS 10160, 10163 & 10243 standards and connected using accredited engineering system nail plates. We are proud to be one of only four companies in South Africa carrying the SATAS mark of approval.
Our trusses are suitable for residential, commercial, and light industrial structures, providing both strength and aesthetic appeal.
Designed with Cutting-Edge Engineering Software
We design our roof trusses using advanced software from MiTek Industries South Africa, part of the ITC-SA Accredited System Members. This ensures precise layouts and structural integrity for every project.
Our trusses can span from 600mm up to 15 meters, accommodating a wide range of building requirements.
Timber & Wood Options
We use two types of timber for our trusses:
-
SA Pine – Highly aesthetic, ideal for exposed roofs where trusses are visible.
-
Biligom – Stronger and more cost-effective, perfect for concealed roofing applications.
Both materials are carefully selected for durability, strength, and sustainability.
