STAR LONG BAY SYSTEM®®

Product catalog summary
Overview
The Star Long Bay System® (LBS) is a custom-engineered solution designed for projects requiring large, unobstructed spaces. It is ideal for manufacturing, warehouse, distribution, and large retail applications, offering architectural design flexibility and efficient installation.

Features
  • Available in bay sizes from 40 to 60 feet.
  • Constructed from light-gauge cold-rolled steel with a 4" chord width and 5" seat depth.
  • Compatible with various roofing systems including standing seam metal, B Deck, Built-Up, Single-Ply, and Multi-Ply.
  • Stiffer and lighter than traditional bar joists, requiring less bridging.
  • Bolted end seat attachments and stable clip attachment for ease of installation.

Benefits
  • Cost-effective due to reduced foundation expenses and ease of erection.
  • Fewer footings and interior columns needed.
  • Easy handling and maneuverability with no warp or sweep.
  • Panels attach using self-drilling screws, eliminating the need for field welding.
  • Interfaces with load-bearing masonry or tilt-wall construction for faster, more precise installation.
  • Open web truss secondary framing supports the roof and expedites mechanical and electrical system installation.

Design and Installation
The LBS utilizes open web truss secondary framing, which supports the roof and reduces installation time for mechanical and electrical systems. The system's design allows for bolting rather than welding, reducing horizontal bridging by 50% compared to bar joists. This bolting method enables materials to be connected on the ground and lifted in sections, enhancing safety and reducing labor costs.

Commitment to Quality
Star Building Systems is committed to providing high-quality building solutions that support community growth. The company reserves the right to update product specifications and designs to improve performance.
