What Are Smart Components?

A new generation of shear wall elements, Smart Components are cutting-edge, pre-fabricated trussed frames and panels engineered to resist any type of lateral force applied to a building.  An integration of traditional truss construction and new proprietary technology, Smart Components are manufactured using typical dimension lumber, metal connector plates and patented concentric hold-down connectors developed by TRUSSED, Inc.  Serving as a key load-transfer mechanism for the building, each Smart Component is designed to meet critical load resistance needs.  Smart Components unique wall segments are customized to meet specific customer applications and provide architects and engineers with a substantial increase in design and window/door opening flexibility.

Design & Testing

Although Smart Components are designed products, they have also been tested extensively to establish seismic design coefficients. We can create the foundation that will last or decades
