Benefits
With the Gang-Nail Truss Frame you’ll experience these benefits
Gang-Nail Truss Frame gains its structural strength and superior resistance to wind- loading from the design and the use of Gang-Nail nail plates for the joints of the timbers. This eliminates the need for OSB, currently used to provide structural integrity to traditional timber frame walls. This means the elimination of panel nailing and OSB, and the associated use of synthetic resins and waxes.

Eliminate OSB
Gang-Nail Truss Frame wall elements can as open panels be insulated with minimal cutting, reducing the on-site installation time .
Time Saving
Gang-Nail Truss Frame is a set of standard wall panel elements (600mm, 1200mm, 1800mm, 2400mm wide and 2100-2700mm high) that can be combined multiple ways making it a modular system. It can form external, and internal load-bearing and non- loadbearing and party walls with no max span, allowing for wide open plan layouts and external apertures for large windows and doors. This offers true flexibility in design, whilst benefiting from standardisation efficiencies. With the Gang-Nail Truss Frame system you can use our existing Paslode and Cullen range for a full wall solution . Paslode structural timber screws or nails are used to fix the frame elements together whilst Cullen wall ties fix insulation and breather membrane as an integrated wall solution. The Gang-Nail Truss Frame wall elements are designed to be made offsite , meaning they can be manufactured in a controlled environment. This helps meet the government’s pre-manufactured value (PMV) threshold of 55% for the Affordable Homes Programme. Gang-Nail Truss Frame has been submitted to NHBC Accepts for accreditation. This means closed panels can quickly be inspected by NHBC in an offsite manufacturing environment and open panels equally quickly inspected on site, providing reassurance in compliance. Gang-Nail Truss Frame is made as a finished wall element using Gang-Nail nail plates to press the timber joints together. As is currently a requirement in the production of roof trusses (BS-EN 14250), this means the wall elements can be UKCA marked by the fabricator. The presence of UKCA certification makes it easier and quicker to meet on- site quality inspections and audits by TRADA, BBA, NHBC, etc.
