How Spates Fabricators Does It

Value Engineering & Strategic Coordination

Our design and account management departments are led by a team of industry veterans who bring unparalleled technical expertise to every project. This leadership allows us to provide a deep level of consultation, coordinating directly with architects, structural engineers, and MEP contractors to resolve potential conflicts with HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems before production begins. Our goal is to optimize material usage and simplify installation without adding unnecessary expense.

Design Precision & Cycle-Time Reduction

We understand that truss calculations are often the final requirement for plan check submittal. By working concurrently with the structural engineer and utilizing an integrated digital design workflow, we significantly reduce calculation cycle times to keep your permitting process on schedule. Every project undergoes a rigorous back-check to ensure structural integrity and a seamless fit.

High-Capacity Manufacturing

Our facility is engineered for volume and velocity. Utilizing CNC linear cutting and automated perimeter definition jigging, we can rapidly scale production to meet the demands of any residential tract or large multi-family project. Our systems allow us to maintain precision and high production speeds even on the most complex truss configurations.
Quality Control & Material Selection Quality is managed at every stage. We are highly selective regarding our sourcing, purchasing only from a specific network of mills to ensure we utilize the highest quality materials available. We maintain a significant inventory of green Douglas Fir, providing us the flexibility to supply the right product based on specific project requirements. Each component is inspected as it leaves the line for joint quality, lumber grade, and plate placement against the engineered design.
Logistics & Field Support Our delivery fleet utilizes specialized roll-off trailers designed to place truss packages exactly where the framing contractor needs them, eliminating the need for on-site lift assistance. If field modifications are required, our experienced field crews are fully equipped to perform adjustments safely and correctly, ensuring the project stays on track.

Safety & Maintenance

Reliability is backed by a strict preventative maintenance program that eliminates downtime. Safety is our primary operational mandate; we work with dedicated safety directors and third-party consultants to ensure full OSHA compliance and a secure environment at our facility and your jobsite.
