DESIGN SOFTWARE
STA use specialized software developed for our industry as well as proprietary
software for LGSF engineering. By having a suite of sectional properties ready
to go, we are able to provide the smartest solutions for your projects without
excessive design redundancies factored in to the calculations. Most of the
different sectional properties in the industry are documented and ready to be
used on your next project.
“We don’t want to be behind the 8-ball when clients require results in a timely
manner”.
DESIGN DOCUMENTATION
Another service STA offers our clients is the publication of key design and
technical manuals. STA analyse, design and produce Span Charts, Compliance
Certificates and other technical documents to facilitate smarter business tools.
We believe that technical information is fundamental to a successful business
as this information is used daily by estimators, detailers, external clients and
council/certifiers. Call us to discuss your technical needs today and see how we
can assist you further.
RESEARCH + DEVELOPMENT
The team at STA continually strive to improve what we do and the solutions
we offer our clients. In a number of applications, LGSF has significant benefits
over other building materials like timber which require testing to demonstrate
these benefits. Great examples we have seen recently is Fire Resistance in
Australia and earthquake shake testing done in NZ. While these tests are
great for the LGSF industry generally, there are numerous localised R&D that
can be done to benefit your business. The results are valuable and create a
real point of difference for your business. STA has partnered with LGSF
companies to scope, test and certify a number of elements and applications
with great success. Some of the areas we can provide R&D are below.
