TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

  • Residential and commercial floor systems

  • Multi-storey buildings

  • High-rise construction

  • Hotels and institutional buildings

  • Parking structures

  • Projects with repetitive floor layouts

  • Fast-track construction projects

  • Projects where reducing structural dead load is a key design objective

SFS® JOISTS SYSTEM

The SFS® Joists System is particularly well suited for projects where lower structural weight, repetitive construction, faster floor cycles and reduced temporary works can provide significant advantages throughout the building.

ELIMINATES CONVENTIONAL FLOOR SHORING AND REDUCES FORMWORK

The SFS® Joists System is a patented floor-construction solution developed to simplify slab support, reduce conventional shoring and formwork, and accelerate construction. The system integrates structural joist elements into the permanent floor assembly, improving construction efficiency while maintaining structural performance.

KEY TECHNICAL ADVANTAGES

  • Approximately 87 kg/m² lighter, on average, than conventional floor systems commonly used today

  • Eliminates conventional floor shoring

  • Reduces formwork requirements

  • Reduces structural dead load

  • Can reduce demands on columns, walls and foundations

  • Accelerates floor construction

  • Permanent structural elements become part of the final floor system

  • Reduces temporary construction materials and site congestion

  • Can reduce overall construction time and cost

WHY SFS® JOISTS IS DIFFERENT

Unlike conventional floor systems, the SFS® Joists System is designed to reduce dead load, simplify temporary works and accelerate construction. By eliminating conventional floor shoring and reducing formwork requirements, the system can improve site efficiency while becoming an integral part of the final structural floor assembly. Its lower weight — approximately 84 kg/m² less on average than commonly used conventional systems — can also reduce cumulative structural loads throughout the building.

Structural Weight Reduction

Representative comparison indicates a reduction of approximately:

87.09 kg/m²

of permanent floor weight.

For multi-storey buildings, reduced floor weight may also reduce column, foundation, and seismic demands, depending on project-specific conditions.
