All frames are welded on a state-of-the-art computerized submerged welding
system. We are capable of producing structural members up to 72" in depth,
which gives us the ability to manufacture clear-span buildings up to 150 feet
wide! A factory primer coating is applied to protect the beams during shipping
and erection.

Structural Framing
All framing members shall be shop fabricated for field bolted assembly unless
otherwise noted on plans and specifications. All building parts shall carry an
identifying mark for easy field identification. Structural framing shall
include tapered beam frames, tapered rigid frames, modular beam and columns,
lean-to rafters and columns, canopy beams, intermediate columns bearing end
frames and end wall columns. Steel used in the fabrication of built-up primary
structural members shall have a minimum yield of 50 KSI. Hot rolled primary
structural members shall have a minimum yield of 50 KSI. Cold rolled structural
members shall have a minimum yield of 55 KSI. Primary framing shall be shop
fabricated and include all holes required for attachment of secondary members
and bracing. A continuous arc-welding process shall join flanges and webs of
built-up welded members. End wall columns and rafters shall be "hot-rolled"
built-up "I" or standard "cee" sections.

Connections
All field connections shall be bolted. All primary bolted connections shall be
furnished with high strength bolts conforming to A.S.T.M. A-325. All secondary
bolted connections shall be furnished with machine bolts conforming to
A.S.T.M.-A307.
Secondary Framing
Secondary framing is created from rolled steel coated with a red-oxide primer
finish in gages from 12 to 16 to provide an extremely rigid, and corrosion
resistant structure. The following elements are formed as secondary framing:
Girts (walls) & Purlins (roof): These members run the length
of the building providing rigidity, and a sturdy skeleton to attach the
sheeting. They are rolled from steel coils 12,14 or 16-gauge steel, or thicker
if needed. All girts
and purlins are pre-punched for ease of assembly.
Eave Struts: This is a rolled member formed into a "C" to match the
pitch of the roof. The eave strut is also made of 12, 14, or 16-gauge steel.

Sheeting
All sheeting is 26-gauge "R" panel. Color sheeting has a galvanized substrate
to prevent rust and corrosion. All our Galvalume roof sheeting is hot dipped
with a zinc and Aluminum compound to give it the strength to stand up to the
worst weather, and the durability to last for generations.
OTHER DETAILS
Fasteners: Self-drilling fasteners are designed for rapid drilling
without slipping of the drill point, thus reducing walking and surface marring.
The neoprene washer keeps your building watertight as well as providing
vibration dampening.
Structural Bolts: We provide all the nuts and bolts to assemble your
building through pre-punched holes.
Closure Strips: Our Steel Buildings come with closure strips which when
installed provide weather tightness. The closure strips are pre-formed to match
the profile of the panels.
Ridge Cap: The
ridge cap is designed to match the slope and contour of the roof
providing a tight seal along the ridge of the building.
Trim, Flashing, Gutters & Downspouts: All our buildings come with
standard trim to give the building a finished clean look. Optional
Gutters and Downspouts
provide additional protection from the elements.
Plans and Drawings: We provide a full set of anchor bolt plans for the
placement of anchor bolts in the foundation. We also provide engineered stamped
and certified construction prints. In addition we provide an in depth erection
manual to walk you through the erection of your building.
