Send us your plans or make an appointment where you can talk with one of our friendly staff to fully discuss your needs. We'll talk about size, design requirements, and other important details. We will then give you a quote based on the information you provide.

Once you approve the quote, we set out to design your custom timber components based on your specific requirements. With the help of our modern software, we are capable of designing and detailing even the most intricate of components with excellent precision.

Upon completion of the design, we move forward with production in our own factory. We project manage the manufacturing of your custom frame and truss components from start to finish in-house, ensuring that everything’s manufactured to your exact specifications and to the highest standards of quality.

Once your custom frame and truss components are manufactured, we deliver them to your project site. We offer delivery throughout Wollongong, Southern Highlands, Shoalhaven, and Sutherland.

Frames and trusses are two important components of construction which are used to support the weight of a building. Frames are composed of individual pieces of timber, such as beams and columns, which have been cut to specific lengths and nailed together in a frame-like structure. Trusses, on the other hand, are made up of a series of bar elements that interlock to form a rigid structure.

At Wadsworth, we have been the leading frame and truss manufacturer in the Illawarra for over 35 years. Whether you need a truss/frame, we've got you covered from design to manufacturing and delivery.

The main purpose of a truss is to provide support for a structure, such as a roof, and prevent it from sagging. Trusses are designed to distribute the weight of the load more evenly throughout the structure, reducing the amount of stress on individual components and making them stronger as a whole. They can also be used for decorative purposes or to create open spaces within a building.

Timber roof trusses are a popular choice for many construction projects because they offer a number of benefits over other types of roof support systems. Some of the key benefits of timber roof trusses include:

• They are strong and durable, and can withstand heavy loads without bending or breaking 
• They are easy to install, and can be put in place quickly and efficiently 
• They are affordable, and often cost less than other types of roof support systems 
• They look good, and can add a touch of elegance to any building project.

Timber frames offer a number of benefits to construction projects. They mostly share the same advantages as trusses. Its pros include:

• Strong and rigid
• Relatively easy to install
• More cost-effective than other types of frames
• Can be tailored to meet specific requirements

The best timber frame truss in terms of strength is the basic truss. This type of truss consists of a lower horizontal beam joining two rafters. The basic frame truss is very strong, and can be used to bear heavy loads without sagging or bending. It is also relatively easy to install, making it an ideal choice for any type of construction work.
