1. Open-web steel joist: This system is really very cost effective and technically superior. The framing process in this case comprises of open web steel joists which support a steel deck and in turn get support from wide flange steel beams or joist girders.
2. Hot rolled wide flange beam: This type of framing system is very common in the construction of buildings. This type of framing system can adjust a wide variety of roof pitches and loads. The beams under this system can be arranged in a vast number of sizes and shape configurations
3. Cantilevered beam: This type of framing process makes use of cantilevered and supported beams. Beam connections replace hinges and one can see no bending movements in the system.
