What was once Temple Baptist Church, a historic building in the heart of Toronto, is now being transformed into a four-storey, 32-unit boutique apartment building.
To preserve the front façade and succeed in meeting the tight timeline, real estate developer Oben Build took advantage of the many benefits of iSPAN’s cold-formed steel. Crews hung 12” TotalJoist sections off the structural steel frame using a Z-shape hanger, while the balconies were framed using our proprietary 8” TotalJoist. By running plumbing and electrical through access holes in the joists, we could achieve a ceiling height of 10 feet, as the builder required.
