Standard Features
Our Standard features include superior
grade materials, including the finest quality coatings over extra heavy metal skins and super
strong structures.
Our knowledgeable team of
professionals is ready to provide effective, cost-efficient and aesthetically pleasing
solutions to your building needs
Primary
Framing
|
|
Main Frames
|
Minimum 50KSI yield strength material. (MBMA guidelines require
only 36KSI yield strength material). By using extra-high yield strength material, a smaller web
can be utilized which means increased usable
space.
Main frames are continuous bead
submerged-arc welded by automated welding
machines. Automated welding of this kind minimizes
the possibility for human error for uncompromised
integrity.
All base plates, connection plates, flange
brace tabs and clips are factory welded in
place resulting in erection time and labor savings.
|
|
End Wall Frames
|
Corner and Wind Columns are either cold formed, mill-rolled or built-up "I"
sections depending on design requirements.

Secondary
Framing
|
|
Girts
|
Girts (at sidewalls and end walls) are minimum 8" depth. Members are
cold formed Z-sections, minimum 16 gauge, up to 13 gauge 55KSI material for superior
strength (MBMA guidelines require only 36KSI
yield strength material). Girts and Purlins are typically "by-pass" with
laps at main frames for extra strength and ease of
assembly.
|
|
Purlins
|
Purlins (at the roof) are minimum
8" depth. 10” and 12” are also available depending
on design requirements. Members are cold formed Z-sections, minimum 16 gauge,
55KSI yield material for superior
strength (MBMA guidelines require only 36KSI
yield strength material). Purlins are lapped at
main frames for up to 6' for added strength and labor savings during the erection process. Maximum spacing is 5'-0” on
center.
|
|
Eave Strut
|
Eave Struts are cold-formed un-equal flange C-Sections. The top
flange is built to match the roof
pitch, to help to ensure weather tightness at the
eave.
|
|
Sheeting Angle
|
A continuous 14 gauge Sheeting
Angle is supplied for use at the gable ends
(rake). The Sheeting Angle provides a place to secure end wall sheets and gable trim.
|
|
Base Angle
|
A continuous 14 gauge Base
Angle is provided for attachment wall
sheeting at the base. The Base Angle is secured to the concrete with powder actuated
anchors.
|
|
Primer
|
All steel arrives at the factory “black” (unprimed). Following the fabrication
process, once all welding drilling and punching of holes is complete, a coat of
factory primer is applied to help protect
members during shipment and erection.

Bracing
|
|
X-Bracing
|
Diagonal rod or cable
bracing is supplied where required at the
roof and walls to absorb and redirect
longitudinal loads imposed by wind and
seismic forces.
|
|
Flange Bracing
|
Angle Flange
Bracing is provided for connection at the
inner flange of the rigid frame and returns to the purlins and/or girts. These Flange
Braces ensure that main frame column and
rafter stability under heavy
loads.

Roof and Wall Panels
|
|
Super
strong 26 gauge min., 80KSI yield strength material for both roof and wall
panels. (MBMA guidelines require only 50KSI yield strength material). Panels produced from
such superior steel offer greater resistance to
damage from impact including hail. Only
Galvalume® Plus steel with a standard 25-Year
warranty is used for superior resistance
to the elements
|
|
Commercial PBR-Panel (Roof and Wall Applications)
|
PBR-Panel has a deeper, 1 ¼” high
rib, and 12” on center for extra strength.
Stiffening ribs are roll-formed into every panel between the high ribs to reduce “oil
canning”.
|
|
Architectural Panel (Semi-Concealed Fastener) (Wall Applications)
|
Member fasteners are secured and hidden in the recesses (“flutes”) of this
panel. Configuration includes a shallow “V” for a clean aesthetically appealing look.
|
|
Standing Seam Panels
|
Minimum 24 gauge steel is used to manufacture standing seam panels in a
variety of profiles. Industrial and architectural
standing seam panel are available in a number of profiles.
|
|
Ridge Cap
|
We include a die-formed
ridge cap, built to match both the slope of your
roof and the profile of the panel to ensure
weather-tightness.
|
|
Trim and Flashing
|
Standard Architectural Commercial trim package includes
complete sculptured trim at the rake, eave,
corners, framedopenings (including
full cover trim at framed
openings),walk doors and base for a
finished look.
|
|
Color Selections
|
A wide variety of colors and
finishes for roof, wall and trim are
available. All with a comprehensive 25 year
warranty.

member-to-member connections. A-307
bolts are included for all
secondary-to-primary and secondary-to-secondary connections.
|
|
Fasteners
|

Weather-tightness
Package
|
|
Closures
|
Closed-cell Neoprene
Strips, pre-formed to match the profile of your
panel with self-adhesive backing are included with every building to
ensure a weather-tight seal against the
elements. Closures are provided for the
roofline, eave and base.
|
|
Sealant
|
3/8”wide, 1/8” thick Mastic
Sealant for roof side laps, end laps, and
ridge cap is included for a cohesive, weather-tight
roof.
|
|
Sheeting Notch
|
Designed into every building system is a 1 1/2” X 1 1/2" Sheeting Notch at base. This Sheeting Notch provides added insurance against rodents,
pests and the elements.
