Brace Options
The Butler™ system is a unique pre-punched modular system. Unlike conventional systems, a modular system requires no on site modifications nor labour intensive tasks to erect.
The secret to the system is in the detail associated with the erection resulting in fast, precise installation and long term performance.
Brace Options
Multiple Options - Fewer Loose Parts and Fewer Site Adjustments
- Factory-welded brace clip connections are available with the Butler™ system.
- Eliminate site bolting, reduce labour and assure greater precision.
- Steel rods don’t stretch or deform during or after installation - saving time
- and labour in replacements.
- Rod bracing doesn’t require multiple tightening during erection.

| Factory-welded rod bracing to the column eliminates on-site bolting. | ||
Flange Braces
Standard Lengths - Faster and More Economical Installation
- The Butler™ system provides one flange brace that is customised by varying the factory-punched hole locations in the beams.
- No on-site welding is required to connect Butler™ flange braces to long span joists (truss purlins).
- The Butler™ system requires no modification, cutting or coping of the flange braces at the web connection.

Single Channel Brace - Simpler and Faster Installation
- Single channel brace replaces the need for angle braces at a top and bottom location.
- Only a single drop pin is needed for channel brace installation.
- Factory-punched alignment holes speed up installation.
- No mechanical fasteners.
- No on-site modifications (bending or cutting of parts).
- No tools required.
