Structural Engineering

Like the skeleton of a human body, the structural system, shown here, works together to create efficient and rugged support resulting in the highest quality buildings in the industry. This rigid frame design provides a clear, unobstructed space that is ideal for storage, manufacturing or recreational use.    Our state of the art designs allow us to manufacture clearspan buildings up to 200 feet wide and in unlimited lengths.

Standard "X" Bracing

Longitudinal wind/seismic forces that are transmitted from the tops of endwall columns into the roof system are transmitted to the eave lines by either diaphragm action of the roof panels, when allowable, and/or by trusses in the plane of the roof. Trusses consist of rigid frame rafters for top and bottom chords, purlins for compression struts, and "X" bracing for tension diagonals. From the eave lines, the longitudinal forces are transferred to the foundation by either diaphragm action of the wall panels and/or the sidewall "X" bracing. When "X" bracing is used to resist longitudinal forces, all braced bays share equally in transmitting these forces to the foundation. Each braced bay is designed to take its proportional share of the wind/seismic loads.

Optional Portal Bracing

This bracing option consists of moment resisting frames placed in the sidewall between primary frames. The portal frame rafter is horizontal, with it's top placed 4" below the cap plate of the column. All members of the frame are made of built-up members or hot-rolled W-shapes.

Optional Wind Column

This option places an additional column adjacent to a rigid frame column and utilizes a fixed base to resist forces resulting from wind/seismic to the endwall. This option is limited in scope due to it's considerable foundation requirements. It is useful for buildings where both sidewall clearance and framed openings do not allow portal bracing.
