Ultra-Span® trusses represent the pinnacle of engineered roofing components, delivering unmatched versatility and cost-effectiveness. With a superior strength-to-weight ratio that outperforms traditional steel solutions, these innovative trusses have been setting industry standards for over three decades. From high-end residential complexes to large-scale industrial facilities across sub-Saharan Africa, Ultra-Span® delivers proven performance in diverse environmental conditions.
Following MiTek's proven "Design | Make | Build" philosophy, we guide every project from conception to completion with meticulous attention to detail. Our comprehensive process ensures seamless integration with your building requirements, in Southern Africa and across Africa. Our team of experienced engineers and technicians works closely with clients to understand their specific needs, local building codes, and environmental considerations. This collaborative approach enables us to deliver roofing solutions that exceed expectations while maintaining cost-effectiveness and structural integrity.
Our expert team utilizes MiTek Pamir software to create precise, customized truss designs that align with your specific building requirements and local regulations. Each design undergoes rigorous analysis to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
In steel fabrication, raw materials are shaped and screwed together to create truss components, ensuring precise adherence to design specifications for durability and structural integrity in construction projects.
We install fabricated trusses by positioning and securing them in designated locations. Skilled professionals ensure precise alignment, connection, and adherence to safety protocols for structural stability.
We conduct yearly thorough inspections to verify roof integrity and structural performance. Our commitment extends to providing comprehensive training programs for proper Ultra-Span® system utilization.

Ultra-Span® trusses, developed by MiTek in 1989, are made from galvanized cold-formed steel (CFS) using a patented Z profile for optimal strength-to-weight ratio. Designed with MiTek's Pamir software, these trusses enhance building durability and resilience. Key benefits include ease of construction, lightweight design, and compactness, reducing costs in logistics, foundations, and construction time. Ultra-Span® has won the Southern African Steel Institute's Steel Awards in the Light Steel Fabrication Category four times, most recently for the "Our Lady of Peace Cathedral" in Chad.
Read moreMiTek's PAMIR software is a comprehensive roof truss and Posi-Joist design tool for licensed manufacturers, combining CAD, layout, engineering, and 3D capabilities into one platform. It supports EC5 engineering and complies with the SANS10160 loading code, ensuring accuracy and regulatory adherence. PAMIR also integrates well with other CAD software, enabling easy collaboration by importing and exporting .dxf, .dwg, .rcf, or BIM models. This interoperability makes truss design more efficient and precise, contributing to successful construction outcomes.
Read moreMiTek Ultra-Span® structural products (profiles, brackets, and joiners) are made from galvanized steel (200g/m²) with thicknesses from 0.5mm to 2.0mm. Manufactured by MiTek Industries South Africa, they meet SANS 10162-2:2011 and SANS 10160 standards for cold-formed steel structures. The products are NHBRC-approved for roof trusses, with design software audited by SASFA. MiTek sources steel from reputable suppliers, ensuring compliance with specific grades and yield strengths. The galvanized coating carries a 50-year warranty, and MiTek’s screws meet SANS 1273 corrosion resistance standards.
