meyJOIST H2 i-Beam
meyJOIST H2 I-Beam Engineered Timber
When a floor or roof has to span long and stay flat, an engineered timber I-beam does the job that solid timber can’t. meyJOIST H2 is an engineered timber I-beam built for strength and straightness at low weight, so longer spans go in faster with fewer supports and less labour on site. We stock meyJOIST H2S in depths from 200mm to 360mm, with flange widths from 45mm to 90mm, covering standard residential floors through to wide-span roof systems.
Why an I-Beam
The I-profile is what makes it work. Putting the timber into a top and bottom flange with a web between them concentrates the strength where the load sits, so an I-beam carries further than solid timber of the same weight and runs dead straight across the span. That gives you flatter floors with less bounce, fewer call-backs for squeaks and movement, and a frame that holds its line after lock-up. Consistent depth and grading also means less packing and waste, and a quicker floor system overall.
The H2S treatment protects against termites for beams kept dry inside the building envelope, the standard for structural floor and roof framing in termite-prone Sydney areas. Match the depth to the span and the flange to the load: deeper 300 and 360mm sections for the long runs, 45mm flanges where the load is lighter, 90mm where it is not.
What Goes With It
An I-beam floor needs the right hangers and the right deck. Joist hangers and framing connectors sized for I-beams are stocked here, with the structural screws and bolts to fix them. Sheet the floor with structural flooring plywood, and where the frame carries a bearer or lintel, run LVL E13 H2 beams. Comparing joist systems?

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a meyJOIST H2 I-beam?
An engineered timber I-beam used for floor and roof joists. The I-shaped profile gives high load capacity at low weight, allowing longer spans than solid timber of the same weight.
What sizes are available?
Depths from 200mm to 360mm, with flange widths from 45mm to 90mm. Deeper sections suit longer spans; flange width is matched to the load.
What is the difference between meyJOIST and SmartJoist?
Both are engineered timber I-beams for the same applications. They are different manufacturer lines, so availability, sizing, and price vary. Call 1300 554 775 if you want help choosing between them for your job.
What does H2S treatment mean?
H2S protects against termites for beams kept dry inside the building envelope. Confirm it suits your application and check the product specification sheet before ordering.
How do I choose the right depth?
Depth depends on span, spacing, and load. Call 1300 554 775 and our team can help, or work to your engineer’s floor or roof design.
