Metal Buildings: The Strong, Silent Answer to Your Construction Needs

Whether you need a metal building for residential or commercial purposes, you can depend on us to fabricate one according to your requirements. Here at Armstrong Steel, we have years of experience customizing prefabricated steel buildings known for their versatility and durability. This makes our products an attractive option for any construction project.

Join us as we explore the key features and benefits of metal buildings in this blog. We will also share their most common applications in various industries to help you decide about investing in one.

Why are metal buildings popular?

Most of us are familiar with steel buildings as industrial or high-rise structures. Given the material’s versatility, it can be used for many other purposes that demand durability, longevity, and strength. A metal building offers exceptional robustness to withstand extreme weather and natural disasters. Plus, it requires minimal to no maintenance, making it more cost-effective. Whether you use it as a home or for your business, you won’t have to worry about additional costs for its upkeep. Moreover, termites and wood rot will be the least of your problems.

What makes metal buildings reliable for any construction project?

Engineered to your requirements

At Armstrong Steel, we pre-engineer metal buildings according to your local building codes and load-bearing specifications. This ensures a ready-to-assemble structure that is easy to erect with minimal labor requirements.

High-quality and durable materials

 We use high-grade steel for the framing to provide structural integrity and stability. Even with minimal columns, your metal building will stand tall and strong without succumbing to harsh weather conditions or nature’s wrath. And because the material is noncombustible, it won’t be a source for fires or cause fire to spread fast and burn everything down.

Better warranties

At Armstrong Steel, we stand behind the quality of our metal buildings by providing longer warranties, such as:

• 40-year paint warranty
• 35-year rust through perforation roof warranty
• 50-year structural warranty

Most conventional construction projects generally don’t have these extended and thorough guarantees, leaving you worried once they expire after a few years. We ensure worry-free steel structures every time, no matter the application or the size of your construction project.

Customizable

 Whether for business, your home, or any other application, you want the metal building to meet your aesthetic requirements. Thankfully, these structures are versatile and can be incorporated with almost any construction material. This is particularly important for branding purposes and homes, especially if you don’t want your property to look like an industrial warehouse.

At Armstrong Steel, we have an expert team of building consultants to help design your dream structure. We offer flexible floor plans and clear-span or modular designs so you can maximize the interior height. Plus, it’s possible to use any interior or exterior finish and roof or wall materials.

Build faster

 Prefabricated metal buildings are pre-engineered in-house. Our team ensures all parts fit seamlessly, simplifying assembly and reducing labor costs. Moreover, we streamline the process of erecting your building because we provide detailed assembly drawings to correspond with the numbered components and pre-punched connections. All these features help speed up construction so you can start using your metal building sooner. With traditional construction and wood-frame buildings, you must wait at least a few months before the project is finished.

No waste

 At Armstrong Steel, we are proud of our ability to maximize the use of steel building materials. We design and prefabricate every building in our facility to control the process and minimize residual waste. In turn, this benefits our customers by ensuring they pay only for the materials used. When you build with wood and concrete, you can never predict how much material is used and the amount of waste produced.

Additionally, we specifically engineer every piece of your metal building according to your local codes and loads. This results in a more predictable use of materials to avoid excess or waste.

For any purpose

 Armstrong Steel Building Systems are known for their versatility. We offer various framing systems, such as modular and clear-span, ensuring your structure suits any application. With few to no interior columns, your building can be a warehouse, barn, or manufacturing plant. We can leave openings for larger doors so you can move or store large pieces of equipment in your building.

Steel building systems can be customized in almost any design to serve as a commercial or leisure complex. Our building consultants can even turn one into your dream home. At Armstrong Steel, we have also worked with clients who need a metal building as an equestrian facility, church, or institutional center. With uninterrupted space, these buildings also make the perfect aircraft hangar.

Future-proof

 Traditional construction with wood, concrete, and brick will make it challenging to expand your building down the road. If you need more space, you would have to spend more time and money on a renovation or building a new structure. A metal building eliminates all that extra work and costs. The modular or clear-span framing simplifies future expansions whether you prefer to extend horizontally or vertically.
