Architectural floor and roof framing system
A sustainable, integrated framing system and methods of assembly thereof are presented herein. In some embodiments, a roof, primary structure, and a ceiling are structurally defined and supported by pre-fabricated load bearing ribs of the sustainable, integrated framing system. The pre-fabricated load bearing ribs facilitate efficient building erection on-site without expensive and time consuming welding and associated inspections. Each rib includes a compression chord element, a web element extending below the compression chord element, and one or more adjustable tension elements embedded within the web element. An end support node is attached to each end of a load bearing rib structure and the one or more tension elements are tensioned against the end support node (s). In some embodiments, the top profile, the bottom profile, or both, of a web structure are shaped to meet aesthetic or functional design objectives independent of the load carrying capability of the load bearing rib.
