Metal Church Buildings

Churches often grow quickly and are unable to successfully provide service to the people in the community. Metal church buildings are a great way to address emerging parishioners and a need for space. You can easily and affordably created the space needed for your growing church with a new metal building system

When looking for an answer to crowding troubles, the answer is certain to arrive. If smiling faces outnumber the seats in your church, then a metal church building is a great solution. The benefits of a pre-fabricated metal building include practicality and economical construction costs. Many customary churches find themselves in need of supplementary space for children's, youth or family activities. A metal church building is an excellent choice to solve your space problems.

Frame Features

Connection Clips - Specially fabricated clips are designed to securely connect structural components. Many companies supply only blank plates that must be cut, drilled and/or welded to components before assembly can begin. In some cases it may require many hours of work to connect required clips. Metal Building Depot details and supplies each clip and placement to every building manufactured. We factory weld all clips onto rigid frames and guarantee the correct placement of all component connections. Don't waste your time and money attaching clips that should have been factory located.

Structural Bracing - Most buildings under 60' have sufficient diaphragm action or "panel shear" that provides all the bracing needed to stabilize the building. In some cases of high winds, seismic or snow loads may cause more stress than panel shear can handle, so additional reinforcement may be required. In these extreme cases we will employ the use of X bracing to reinforce the frame. In situations where X bracing cannot be used a wind column is an excellent addition to strengthen a vertical rigid frame column. A portal frame is sometimes used in extreme load circumstances. Portal frames are fairly expensive and only necessary in rare circumstances.

Panel Options

Color or Galvalume - Our online system includes both Galvalume Plus® and SMP Colors. For a small price increase you can add a colored roof. Our standard colored panels consist of a Galvalume® sheet that has been primed and coated with Silicon Modified Polyester (SMP) paint. Both panel types of panel are very tough, and both our Galvalume Plus® warranty and our paint warranty run for 25 and 30 years respectively. The Galvalume Plus® panels cost less, but the painted panels give your steel building a more refined look.

Color and Roof Pitch - When considering color over Galvalume, be sure to take the roof pitch into account. Higher-pitched roofs are more noticeable, but with a low-pitched roof very little of the roof can be seen.

Benefits Of Pre Fabricated Metal Buildings

Reasons people choose one thing in place of another are normally are obvious and easy to recognize. Choosing the right kind of steel building system can be a little more difficult. All pre-fabricated metal buildings are not created equal. There are many elements of design and customization that make them very different and the differences are not always obvious. Please brows our preferred vendor listings. There you can find in-depth information about many quality-building suppliers.

Regardless of your intended purpose, whether to store equipment or use as a metal shop building, pre fabricated steel structures offer many advantages. Insulation and temperature control options and extras like customized paneling and many color choices add uniqueness and style.

The main advantage of a pre fabricated metal building is its simple assembly. Steel Buildings are shipped complete with all the accessories and hardware needed for construction. In many cases, you could have a steel building delivered and erected before most conventional builders could complete the initial planning.

To learn more about the benefits of pre fabricated metal buildings, contact a manufacturer. Along with a price quote, they can give you an idea of the customization options and floor plan styles available. Top companies provide the advice of skilled professionals to assess your needs to match you with the right building.

Roof Pitch

The angle of a steel building's roof is determined by roof pitch. Roof pitch indicates the rise vertically for every 12 inches of travel horizontally. Our online system allows you to choose up to a 6:12 pitch. There are many considerations with both higher and lower roof pitches. Higher pitched roofs may add to the cost of the building, but can add performance to a building in a heavy snow region. Additionally, you can take advantage of extra space above. High-pitched roofs are less likely to leak and can add style to your building.

Low-pitched roofs require less material and therefore cost less. Also it is easier to heat and cool a building with a low-pitched roof. One major advantage of a low-pitched roof is expandability. If you ever add-on to your building you will be able to add more space while keeping the loss of headroom to a minimum.
