This allows you to design the most cost effective building no matter the size. Composite Steel Buildings is the only licensed company to design buildings using the SMRT® Design giving users a distinct advantage in the market to provide a true alternative to conventional design. A full description of the building types are listed below.
using SMRT® Patented Design*
SMRT® Design* is a unique mixture of structural steel and cold form steel. It utilises the strength of structural steel columns and partial rafters with cold form steel forming the centre of the rafter. The design was created to eliminate the need for using heavy structural steel or highly fabricated web trusses where they were not needed. This provides a large cost saving in material and labour, giving you a distinct advantage in the market place.
Composite Steel Buildings is a License holder of the SMRT® design*. This is your opportunity to have a truly one-of-a-kind software package.
Typically a rolled C sectional deign for the column and rafter with either Z section or top hat sections used for wall girts and roof purlins. This is still the most cost-efficient design for domestic sheds and smaller commercial buildings.
Universal Beam or I Beam is traditionally used in larger commercial buildings. By using structural steel in the design of the building, it takes away the limitations of size and allows you to supply very large span and height capacities. These buildings are typically called upon in large commercial projects.
Web Truss design building typically uses Structural Steel or I Beam Steel for the columns of the building and then incorporates a welded rectangular hollow section or square hollow section web designed rafter. You can also find various sized angle steel used for this type of rafter. These styles of rafters allow for considerably larger spans over cold rolled buildings.

Shed Design Software for Australian shed businesses
Our shed design software allows the agent to make design changes while you’re with the customer and to check the design to make sure everything has passed, and engineering can be provided. There is no need to send your design to an engineer, our agents can check the design right then and there.
- Personalised to suit your specific measurements
- Ongoing support available
- Advanced, easy-to-use design software
The image below shows what you can do, with the software, including:
- Changing the size of the frame on the fly
- Change an individual item in the frame to optimise the shed. For example, the image below is showing 2 rafters that are overstressed. Although this would possibly pass with the final engineering check, you could easily change the size from a C150-15 to a C150-19 and pass the structure straight away.
