Steel Building Applications and Styles

Commercial & Retail

These may include manufacturing facilities, offices, or even distribution and shipment centers, that allow for a reasonably priced alternative to expand pre-existing structures or set up a new construction in a shorter period of time. These modules can be customized and installed with little to no impact to ongoing business functions.

Storage & Warehousing

Provides protective and reliable storage that requires minimal maintenance. This could mean a space to store machinery and equipment, excess stock, records and files, among other uses.

Automotive Garage

Provides protection from harsh climates, especially winter, and provide a wide, open space where several vehicles can be stored, displayed, and repaired.

Recreational Facilities

Providing large, open-spaced construct of varying size that can host a range of sports and other recreational activities which would involve audiences or extra height.

Agricultural

Pre-engineered steel buildings are more pest-resistant and economical, making them the perfect option to house livestock, store harvested crop, and farming machinery.

Government

Government agencies must minimize damage and time taken to construct buildings that can hinder government workers from doing their jobs. Pre-engineered steel buildings accommodate this by providing a space for multiple operations to operate under one roof due to their durable, weather-resistant, and customizable features.

Education

Expanding campuses can be hectic and time-consuming, however using a pre-engineered steel building for school construction would use environment-friendly materials that will not harm children and can be used to create libraries, laboratories, etc.

Manufacturing & Industrial

Efficiency is highly prioritized in these industries and pre-engineered steel buildings provide large-capacity storage solutions for equipment, factor in high ceilings for sizeable construction, provide options for easily customizable floor plans that make them ideal for longer production lines, and these buildings are much quicker to construct – optimizing them for high productivity.
