This lightweight, 3-dimensional space frame system, designed to support membrane and other materials, makes possible large clear-span buildings. The TM system used trusses created by joining pieces of steel tubing together with spherical steel nodes. The resulting framework is exceptionally strong and aesthetically pleasing, permitting a wide range of design choices for virtually any size building. The component-based TM Truss system facilitates assembly, and also permits disassembly and reassembly. All aspects of a project, from design through fabrication of our TM Truss system, are carefully controlled by an integrated computer system. This assures every completed structure will have maximum strength, durability and aesthetic qualities.
