Existing CECO Joists?

Structural

I am currently working on analyzing an existing roof structure for a possible new fall protection system.

I was able to pull off one of the existing joist tags, and it read the following:

54 256 J15 The CECO Corp.

I have been unable to find anything on the inter-webs, about CECO or this particular joist. The best I can find is that the CECO corp. has changed hands several times over the past few years.

Has anyone dealt with these before? Any existing information available?

Thanks,
