Learn About The Various Types of Steel Buildings And Their Uses

If you have never knew about building structures before, you may want to take a moment to get familiar with the features they offer. Discover the specific applications for steel buildings:

Commercial Steel Buildings: These are buildings designed for profit. This type of use is usually associated with Industrial parks and retail developments.  The process of getting through the building department can be challenging to say the least. Be sure to select a contactor that is familiar with the building department process, site planning and overall project management.

Steel Mini Storage Buildings: You may be wondering if the self-storage industry is saturated. The answer is no way! While some parts of the nation may be overbuilt, many communities have a need for additional storage facilities. Consumers’ endless desire to amass along with escalating rents that place families and businesses into smaller homes and work areas are increasing the industries customer base. On top of that, today’s zoning is more “friendly” to self-storage than ever before.

Equestrian Buildings: All metal buildings are not created equally and equestrian facilities have specific requirements that are not adequately met by many suppliers. Choose a contractor that specifies high manufacturing and design standards to ensure that you receive the appropriate amount of components, extra fasteners, tighter screw patterns, high quality materials, complete trim packages and a top of the line design without any of the shortcuts used by other suppliers to increase their profit margins.

Steel Buildings – Shops and Garages: You may have heard neighbors comment that, “You can never have a shop or garage that is to big.” While certain limitations exist for every project, people appreciate spaciousness in their work or storage areas. Why not have a spacious and organized shop or garage to enjoy.

Steel Church Buildings & Gymnasiums: When budgets are tight, there can be a conflict between the functionality and the outward appearance of a building. In these situations, the project should focus on the functionality of the steel church building or gym as a state of the art facility that supports the goals of the congregation or gym students and not on “fancy” and over-priced exteriors.

Steel Aircraft Hangars: The design of an aircraft hangar is no place for short cuts. It is imperative that you work with a supplier that understands the effects that the deflections created from massive door movements and the effect that wind and snow loads can have on your building. Proper design will lower the deflection of the structure to help insure easy door operation and safety at all times.

Steel Agricultural and Barn Buildings: Although wood truss pole barn systems are useful under certain circumstances, there is no comparison between them and the quality offered in rigid steel building structure designs. Go with structures that offer additional strength, performance, flexibility for expansion and permanence.
