Services
Structural Steel Space Frames
DSI Spaceframes designs and manufactures structural steel space frames for large-span applications. These systems provide lightweight, durable support for sports arenas, convention centers, and tollway canopies. Using advanced engineering, we ensure optimal load distribution and compliance with U.S. material standards.
Architectural Space Frames
Our architectural space frames enable intricate designs like curved facades and artistic sculptures. Tailored to project-specific aesthetics, these systems combine forged steel components with powder-coated finishes for visual appeal and corrosion resistance in commercial and public spaces.
Design Consultation
DSI offers free design consultations to assess project feasibility. Our team collaborates with architects and engineers to refine concepts, optimize costs, and determine if space frames are the ideal solution for structural or decorative applications.
Fabrication
Precision fabrication of space frame components occurs in our Illinois facility. Using CNC technology and domestic materials, we produce galvanized, powder-coated steel members with exacting tolerances, ensuring seamless on-site assembly and long-term durability.
Installation
Trained technicians install prefabricated space frames using bolted connections, eliminating field welding. This method ensures rapid assembly, structural integrity, and minimal maintenance, with systems approved for seismic and extreme weather conditions.
