Steel joist supplier in Fort Lauderdale
SJI-certified steel joists in Fort Lauderdale for commercial, industrial, and residential projects. Custom-engineered to your specs.
Steel Joists for Fort Lauderdale job sites
General contractors and steel erectors in Fort Lauderdale rely on Miami Metal Deck for Steel Joists on projects across Broward County and the South Florida region. Because Fort Lauderdale is in South Florida, stock items can be picked up the same day at our Miami Gardens facility or delivered the same day to your site.
With Fort Lauderdale's coastal humidity and salt air, many engineers specify a G90 galvanized finish for its heavier zinc coating; we confirm the finish against your project specifications. Broward County falls within the Florida Building Code's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ). Send us the deck and attachment requirements on your drawings so we can supply the specified gauge and lengths.
