Load Bearing Steel Systems

Axial load-bearing framing systems are a popular choice for multi-story constructions. Our lighweight systems are easy to handle and non-combustible. They are also calculated, designed, signed and stamped by our Ontario-licensed Engineers to meet the unique conditions of each project.

The lighter weight of an axial load-bearing system reduces overall building mass and the cost of construction. These versatile systems support various claddings — including brick and stucco — and can be applied to many different construction environments.

J.A. Macdonald’s steel framing systems come from the industry’s most respected manufacturers. These systems offer vertical load transfer — as well as bridging, bracing and deflection allowances — for higher load ratings.
