HYBRID DECKING JOISTS

FastenMaster's new ICON ScrewJoist hybrid deck joist system combines the strength and durability of steel with the lightness and workability of wood

Table of Contents

FastenMaster has introduced the ICON ScrewJoist, a revolutionary hybrid deck joist system engineered to combine the strength and durability of steel with the lightness and workability of wood. It reportedly enables contractors to build exterior deck substructures faster, stronger and safer than with pressure treated joists. 

ICON ScrewJoists are significantly lighter for safer, easier handling and quicker installation without the need for metal hangers or connectors. Straighter and more dimensionally stable, they provide a consistently level surface without crowns or low spots. Their open web design allows contractors to slide 2x8 lumber blocking into place without having to cut and install multiple blocks. 

Joists are 10.5” tall, 3.5” wide, custom manufactured, and shipped to the jobsite with a detailed engineering layout showing the placement of each joist, ledger board, and carrying beam, plus all critical connections and other necessary structural details.

Initially, they will only be available in the Northeast.
