In the fast-paced world of multi-family and light commercial construction, efficiency, and performance are key. That’s where wood truss systems from Kuiken Brothers come in with unmatched efficiency, versatility, and cost-effectiveness, making them the perfect solution.
When it comes to urban construction, challenges abound. This was especially true for a recent Kuiken Brothers project in North Bergen, NJ, where a tractor-trailer loaded with wood floor trusses navigated the bustling Kennedy Boulevard to supply a five-story, multi-family development. Designed to address the area’s growing housing demand and aging housing stock, this new construction project is a testament to both engineering and logistical excellence.
One of the most demanding aspects of this delivery was the tight job site. Urban lots leave little room for error, and this project was no exception. To meet the builder’s needs, Kuiken Brothers coordinated a crane operation to hoist each truss to the fourth floor of the building. With traffic, pedestrians, and city noise adding to the complexity, precision planning and teamwork were paramount.
We commend the builder for tackling this ambitious project. Transforming a challenging urban location into much-needed housing requires vision and determination. Their effort not only contributes to the revitalization of this area but also ensures more families have access to modern, safe, and efficient housing.
Kuiken Brothers’ Wood Truss experts played a vital role in this success. Engaged early in the project, they worked closely with the builder and factory to ensure that the trusses were engineered to meet both structural and logistical requirements. From designing for the unique specifications of the building to scheduling a seamless delivery, the expertise and commitment of our team helped make this challenging process a success.
Below are typical trusses designs we see used in multi-family and light commercial projects.
