Get a customized steel structure that's engineered to meet codes and stand up to loads. Plans are reviewed by a certified engineer prior to manufacturing and can be stamped for easier permit approval.
Custom Sized - You specify the dimensions you want, generally starting at 25 feet wide/long, then engineering reviews the required steel framing to support those needs.
Durability - Given the careful planning that goes into these, and the structural integrity of steel framing, these are built to last.
Prefab Construction - You end up with less headaches when it comes time to build given components are pre-cut and drilled.
Accessories - You choose the windows, doors, skylights, vents, insulation and more. Then the design team makes it work.
Made in USA - We believe in buying local for high-quality at a great price (shipping heavy steel buildings is expensive).
Engineered - Here's where the magic happens. Buildings are reviewed by the factory engineers to ensure structural integrity.
Less Framing - Since steel beams can span wider widths, you get larger clear-span space than with traditional wood framing.
Pricing - Help manage your costs with a pre-engineered building as opposed to having to deal with architects, engineers, lumber yards, more laborers than necessary and more.

With the detailed requirements of pre-engineered buildings, it's best you speak with an expert about your needs by requesting a free quote. But, we'll still try to answer a few questions below.
As with anything, the answer is it depends. Pre-engineered steel building are, however, inherently tough. Steel structures can withstand damage from high winds and earthquakes. Along with this is the ability to hold up against heavy rains, and fire, as well as termites and molds and other vermin. There are very few things that can destroy the steel building. Along with this, the manufacturer of the steel building will also treat the metal so that it can also resist rusting.
The building is made like a kit in the manufacturing plant. Once the steel building is then put together on site as per the specifications, you also have the security of lowered maintenance. For example, there is really no need to paint the building every few years. Unlike that of a wooden exterior building, the steel building holds its coat. Additionally due to the structural toughness, the money spent on traditional buildings for termites and rodents treatment, can be redeployed for other use.
There is no fear of warping, splitting nor rot in a steel building. In other buildings there will be the need to replace wooden frames, or replace cracked sheetrock or fix sag. As a pre-engineered steel building, once it reaches the site, it goes up straight and is plumb. It will remain that way for decades and trouble free.
Reduced Wastage In Construction
When comparing the traditional building process to a pre-engineered steel building, there is reduced wastage in the steel building. Each piece of steel is precisely manufactured and there are no pieces that are thrown away as scraps. Each piece of metal has its rightful position. There is the right quantity to create the building whether it is the framework or panel. In a traditional wooden building, you could for example, end up with some loss or wastage as the wood may bend giving an unacceptable cut.
There Is An Ease of Expansion
Pre-engineered steel buildings are also easing to remodel and expand as well. This is also a major selling point when acquiring a pre-engineered steel building. As the need for growth happens the expansion can happen where the specifications are given to the manufacturer. It is because the existing steel building has been precisely built, then the new kit on arrival can simply be added by adding it to the original building. The precision and attention to detail means that there is consistency in the structure as well, due to the stability of the steel and metal.
Whether it is end-wall expansion, side-by-side or even second-story prefab expansion, it can be done a whole lot easier.
The Foundation
A pre-engineered steel building will require fewer pieces of framing as compared to the wood structure. This means then that there is much less weight on the foundation. Overall, that also means that the foundation problems which may arise in other heavy structures, such as settling will not occur with the pre-engineered steel building.
Energy Efficient
Some steel buildings depending on the purpose of use may not require heating or air conditioning in the milder climates. Maybe this is true in agriculture and storage and even other warehouses and aviation. In some other plants, maybe business, residential or commercial, there may be the need for climate control systems. Here, the steel building also works quite well.
The manufacturer of the pre-engineered steel building can enable deep wall cavities which allow significant room for thicker and energy-efficient insulation. Included may be a strong vapor barrier, and this all adds to slashing the overall utility bill.
For the roof, the right coating of the panels can also add to the steel building remaining cool and in the summer reduce any internal heat loss.
There Are Bonus Benefits Too
As an added benefit of having a pre-engineered steel building, the structure maintains its value over time. This is great news, especially if in the future there is the need to place the building up for sale. Along with this another bonus is the ease of insurance, since the building has been pre-engineered to exacting standards, that then means insurance costs would be lower.
Should you want to consider abandoning the building due to relocation or other reasons, the structure can be recycled as it is a steel structure. This is great for the environment.
