KHAMIR PATEL
Founder & Managing Member

Khamir Patel is the founder and managing partner of Florida Steel Frame & Truss Manufacturing, LLC (FSFTM). Since early on, Khamir was fascinated by the construction process and had the opportunity to be involved alongside his father on multiple hotel construction and renovation projects in Florida. While his father continued on in the hospitality industry, more specifically operations and day-to-day management, Khamir further developed his interest in construction. Khamir secured his state certified general contractor license and developed the Tampa-based construction company, KHP Homes, known for successful development of residential and commercial properties including large custom homes, hotels, medical offices, and apartment complexes. In 2018, to support the continuing growth of his construction company and the increasing demand for high-performance framing systems in Florida, Khamir started FSFTM, with the vision of influencing other builder's to join the green revolution and make the switch from conventional framing systems to light gauge steel trusses and light gauge steel framing systems. Under Khamir's management, Florida Steel Frame & Truss Manufacturing continues its rapid growth and now supplies light gauge steel trusses and framing to projects throughout the Continental USA, Canada, and the Carribean Islands.

Why Steel?

Superman, isn’t known as “The Man of Wood,” or, “The Man of Cinder Block.” So why build with these materials?


Advances in steel fabrication have made it possible to build trusses and framing for residential and commercial buildings entirely with light gauge steel. While steel is more expensive than wood and cinderblock, the additional expenses are offset by reduced labor and overhead.


Steel is a high-quality building material that is resistant to mold, mildew, termites, and other pests. Due to its non-combustible nature, steel can resist temperatures upto 1,800 degrees Fahrenheit and is a great choice for buildings in areas prone to hurricanes, tornados , and earthquakes. It also does not crack, rot, decay, or emit VOCs over its lifetime making it a safe and clean choice for use in your next construction project.
