Size: Customizable based on project requirements, typically ranging from small-scale repairs to large structural fabrications.
Grade: Varies by application; common grades include ASTM A36, A572, and A588 for steel trusses.
Viscosity: Not applicable (N/A) for solid structural components; relevant only for adhesives or coatings used in repairs.
Buoyancy: N/A for standard truss systems; specialized designs may incorporate buoyant materials for marine applications.
Material: Primarily steel (carbon or alloy), aluminum, or timber, depending on load-bearing and environmental needs.
Load Capacity: Designed to meet specific structural loads, often rated in kN/m² or lbs/ft².
Corrosion Resistance: Enhanced through galvanization, paint coatings, or stainless steel materials.
Connection Methods: Bolted, welded, or pinned joints, adhering to engineering standards (e.g., AISC, Eurocode).
Thermal Conductivity: Varies by material (e.g., steel ~50 W/m·K, aluminum ~205 W/m·K).
Fire Resistance: Achieved via fireproofing coatings or materials like intumescent paint.
