            High-strength steel construction

            We source the highest quality structural
            steel from within North America. Automated
            continuous welding provides extra strength and no
            weak spots.

            Low profile
                                                                      Steel deck
            14” height from baseplate to driving surface minimizes ramp   cutaway
            requirements. Higher profile for additional clearance is easily
            accomplished with affordable base plate options.
            No-bolt module connections

            Simple hook & notch design allows quick, easy joining of
            the modules. Overall scale length is easily increased by
            adding modules.
