Nucor Building Systems (NBS), a leading manufacturer of custom-engineered metal building systems, is pleased to announce the expansion of their framing system product line to include Nucor TrussFrame, a hybrid metal building open web rafter system.
Nucor TrussFrame combines the stability of a rigid frame system with the convenience and architectural aesthetic of open web trusses, creating a system that provides maximum design flexibility with unobstructed, column-free interior space in excess of 250 feet.
"NBS is excited to provide a quality open web solution that will greatly benefit our Builders and the customers they serve," said Jeff Carmean, Nucor Building Systems President. "TrussFrame is a unique open web rafter product providing a spacious interior aesthetic that will allow our Builders to expand their capabilities to better serve new markets. This is a superior framing option that is extremely efficient and economical, and will solve numerous building challenges."
Unlike solid web framing systems, TrussFrame allows HVAC systems, electrical wiring, and sprinkler systems to be incorporated into the open trusses. This feature can reduce the required building height and increase overall efficiency. Available in both gable and single slope Clearspan framing, the system is compatible with all Nucor Roof Systems.
TrussFrame is well-suited for a range of building end-uses including retail, manufacturing plants, recreational facilities, aircraft hangers, warehouses, arenas and stadiums.

As it enters the 40th year of production, Aquatherm GmbH, and its North American partner, Aquatherm North America, are releasing a refreshed logo and new product titles. The pipe manufacturing company, based in Attendorn, Germany, is the leading supplier of polypropylene-random (PP-R) piping systems worldwide and has seven major product lines, five of which are currently available in North America.
"Aquatherm has been the world's leading polypropylene pipe producer and innovator for decades, and as the company celebrates its 40th anniversary, we are proud to launch this rebranding campaign," said Dirk Rosenberg, Managing Director of Aquatherm GmbH. "Along with a fresh new logo, we have better aligned the names of our products with their applications. The new product names and logo position us to continue our steady growth in North America and around the globe."
Since developing the original Aquatherm Greenpipe® system that propelled Aquatherm into the world market, the product lineup has expanded gradually over time. Because new innovations were named as they were created, some disparities resulted.
For the sake of unity and clarity, the Aquatherm product lines will be identified using a color-coded convention. This was originally tested in the U.S. market, when Aquatherm's original piping product, Fusiotherm, was renamed to Aquatherm Greenpipe with great success. With the new naming system Aquatherm Greenpipe will now become Aquatherm Green Pipe, and Climatherm will be known as Aquatherm Blue Pipe®. Aquatherm Lilac Pipe® will retain its same name.
