Tek1 introduces Light Gauge Steel (LGS) Bathroom Pods — a complete, prefabricated, and installable bathroom solution designed to bring unmatched speed, accuracy, and reliability to your construction projects. Manufactured off-site in a quality-controlled environment, these pods arrive fully finished and ready to connect, minimizing on-site work and maximizing efficiency. ⚙️ What is a Bathroom Pod?…

In today’s construction world, speed, precision, and consistency are no longer optional — they’re essential for achieving construction efficiency. I’ve seen firsthand how Tek1’s approach is redefining the process. Instead of building bathrooms on-site, we now build them inside a precision-controlled manufacturing setup — where every frame, fixture, and finish is handled with engineering accuracy,…

When people admire a perfectly built structure, they rarely see the detailing behind it — the hundreds of micro-decisions that make “zero-error” projects possible.In one of our recent projects, a simple roof overhang turned into an unexpected test of coordination, precision, and creative problem-solving. The Challenge — Roof Overhang Dilemma The project had a roof…

Introduction – The Hidden Challenge Would you choose safety over deadlines if your truss design failed? On a recent project, I faced this exact situation. What began as a standard detailing exercise turned into a real test of structural limits, client expectations, and project timelines. 1️⃣ The Problem – Missing Structural Member The original structural…

When people look at the Aspire Mickleham Childcare Centre today, they see a bold design and complex roof structure. But what they don’t see is the weeks of questions, clarifications, and coordination that turned a challenging concept into a buildable reality. As the detailer on this project, I had the privilege of leading that journey…

In large-span steel projects, the challenge isn’t always about strength or design — it’s about logistics. Transport regulations often cap dimensions at 12m length x 2.6m width, meaning oversized trusses designed in software can’t physically reach site in one piece. At the Aspire Mickleham Childcare Centre project, I faced exactly this issue with trusses reaching…
