Fortress EVOLUTION™ Steel Framing — Rim Joists (Black Sand)

Complete the perimeter of your EVOLUTION™ steel deck with 2"×6"×8' Black Sand rim joists. Pre-punched options speed layout when installing fascia, while blank profiles (straight or curvable) give you full flexibility for custom edges, picture frames, and curves. All versions integrate with EVOLUTION joists, beams, and compatible brackets/fasteners (sold separately) to deliver straight, durable, low-maintenance framing.
