Modular Steel Frame System

TekSpan enables contractors and installers to build frames on site that provides similar strength qualities to welded steel frames, that can be easily transported to site and erected quickly in situ.

TekSpan is a modular steel frame system based on a hot dipped galvanised box frame and using a unique T-bolt fastening system, TekSpan has been installed on many projects throughout Europe and is now available to the UK market.

TekSpan gives you the loading properties of welded steel frames without the associated site-welding issues, and is ideal for installing in challenging environments, such as basement boiler rooms and risers where a crane-lift would present a logistics issue.

Proven throughout the world even in demanding NZ seismic conditions, TekSpan’s versatility makes it the modular system of choice. Talk to us to discover ways in which TekSpan can make installs easier, quicker and more cost-effective

Modular steel frames enable the ability to make future adjustments and modifications. Where welded steel frames require on-site grinding and welding, modular systems allow for a simple bolt-on addition for variations or developments of the frame.

Arguably the greatest benefit of TekSpan is the short lead time; traditional steel frames need to be cut, welded, fabricated, shipped to galvanisers, and then transported to site. With TekSpan the components are picked from the shelf, shipped to site, and assembled in-situ using minimal tools. With expert support from start to finish, the MEP / HVAC contractor can literally order today an have a frame installation completed within 24 hours.

At the heart of the TekSpan system is the patented T-lock bolt. This unique M12 bolt is made from 10.9 high grade steel giving up to 10kN shear strength, and can be simply installed using a torque wrench.

One of the unique features of the TekSpan system is the stepless slot design, which the T-lock bolt facilitates. In practice this means that leveling up frames and structures is done simply and quickly, in contrast to screw systems that require precise alignment of holes.
