Pricing depends on your specific project - just like homes, no two steel buildings cost the same. Steel is a global commodity with prices that shift daily based on market conditions. Material costs continue to trend upward and aren't going back to what they were years ago, which is why we provide current, accurate quotes tailored to your project instead of generic price lists.
Several factors impact your investment: your area's required wind and snow ratings, your building's size (width requires more steel than length), and your design preferences. Simple rectangular buildings are most economical, while custom features like additional doors, windows, and insulation adjust the price accordingly. Understanding today's market helps you make informed decisions about your timeline. Want to know what your building will cost? Our building consultants can provide an accurate quote based on your specific requirements.
Armstrong Steel Buildings are engineered to comply with all U.S. and International building codes, including applicable snow and wind loads for your location. We help to ensure your building meets the required standards.
Your building ships by truck directly from our manufacturing facility to your job site. Since every building is custom-engineered and fabricated, delivery times vary based on your project's size and complexity. Once your order is placed and your design is finalized, your Armstrong Project Manager and the Armstrong Logistics team will provide you with a confirmed delivery timeline and keep you updated throughout the process.
Metal buildings are faster to build, more affordable, and built to last. Steel won't rot, crack, or attract pests like traditional materials can. They're also incredibly strong—designed to handle serious snow and wind loads—and require very little maintenance over the years. Add in the fact that steel is highly recyclable and you can customize the design to fit your needs, and it's easy to see why so many people are choosing metal.
Many of our customers install their buildings themselves using the easy-to-follow erection drawings and manual that come with every Armstrong Steel Building. You may also choose to hire a contractor to put up your building. Not sure who to call? We can connect you with an Authorized Armstrong Builder who has trusted experience erecting buildings.
Every building is custom-engineered and fabricated, so delivery times depend on the size and complexity of your specific order. Want a more accurate timeline? Your Armstrong Project Manager can walk you through what to expect for your particular project after your design is finalized.
Every building is custom tailored to your needs. We offer a wide palette of colors for your wall panels, trim, and accessories. All buildings include our industry-standard galvalume roof finish, and colored roof panels are available as an upgrade option. Color selections may vary depending on your panel type, so just let us know what you have in mind and we'll help you create the perfect look.
Every Armstrong Steel building kit includes:
All Armstrong Steel buildings are made with 100% American-made materials. Doors, windows, and insulation can be added to your kit based on your specific project needs. Your project manager can help you customize your package to include any additional components you may be looking for.
Pre-engineered metal buildings work great for low-rise multistory structures. Our team will work with you you to help create the best possible design for your specific application.
We can design steel building expansions whether you're adding onto an existing steel structure or connecting to a traditional building. Even if your current building wasn't originally designed with expandable endwalls, our engineering team can work with what you have and create a solution that fits your needs. Let us know what you're working with and we'll help you figure out the best approach for your expansion.
Every Armstrong Steel building can be customized with windows, doors, skylights, vents, and other accessories. Just let us know what you need and we'll help you design your building exactly how you want it.
Steel buildings work for countless applications - commercial retail spaces, breweries, event centers, industrial warehouses, aviation hangars, equestrian arenas, workshops, storage facilities, and much more. If you can dream it, we can probably build it.
Most people only buy a steel building once, so it's crucial to choose the right partner. Many companies cut costs by outsourcing engineering overseas or using the lowest-bid fabricators. That cheaper upfront price often leads to major headaches - misaligned parts, missing components, poor welds, and construction delays that end up costing you more in the long run. At Armstrong Steel, we handle engineering and fabrication to our standards, ensuring your building goes up right the first time. Our client satisfaction and transparent process are what set us apart.
PEMB stands for Pre-Engineered Metal Building. It's a building system made of steel components that are engineered and fabricated specifically for your project, then bolted together on-site. This approach is faster and more efficient than traditional construction methods.
We deliver pre-cut, ready-to-assemble steel buildings directly to your job site anywhere in the Continental United States and can deliver to your choice of port to be shipped. Your building ships directly from the Armstrong Steel Manufacturing Plant.
Beyond standard construction tools, you'll need industrial lifting equipment to handle the rafters and columns - we typically recommend a 2 ton forklift or telehandler. Other helpful equipment could include a scissor-lift, front-end loader, and power tools. Don't worry - your building kit comes with a detailed erection manual that outlines everything you'll need.
Foundation requirements vary based on your building size, local soil conditions, and applicable building codes. Your Armstrong Steel building kit includes an anchor bolt plan showing the building's dimensions and load reactions. We highly recommend hiring a local foundation engineer or contractor who can design and pour the proper foundation for your specific site and building after you’ve received your wet stamped blueprints from us.
Adding length to your building is more economical than adding width. Steel buildings can span up to 200 to 250 feet wide clear span in some cases, but wider buildings require significantly more steel in the framing system. If you need more space, extending the length is typically your most cost-effective option.
Both have a significant impact on pricing. Higher snow loads require stronger roof framing to support the weight, and higher wind ratings require additional engineering and reinforcement. For example, a building in Alaska engineered for 120 pounds of snow per square foot costs more than one designed for 43 pounds. Similarly, a building rated for hurricane-force winds costs more than one designed for moderate wind zones.
Yes, they do. Buildings in high seismic zones require additional engineering and reinforcement to meet earthquake safety standards. A building designed for San Francisco's seismic requirements will cost more than one built in an area with minimal seismic activity. All Armstrong Steel buildings are engineered to meet the seismic codes for your specific location.
Metal buildings are faster to construct, more cost-effective, and built to last. Steel won't rot, warp, or attract termites like wood. They're engineered to handle your area's specific snow and wind loads, require minimal maintenance, and are highly customizable.
To ensure your slab or foundation is poured correctly it is important to have your anchor bolt plans. These are included with your building and are provided to you as part of your engineering package.
No! All you need to do is ensure that your building will be anchored appropriately. Once you sign your order form and send in your engineering payment, we will provide you with the anchor bolt plans necessary for you to prepare the job site ahead of delivery.
Not at all. Some companies use lighter gauge materials or hybrid pole barn systems with wood framing that can rot. Others use red oxide primer instead of galvanizing their secondary framing, leading to rust issues. There's also a big difference between stainless steel fasteners and zinc-coated ones. Some buildings even require you to bolt on clips in the field during assembly, adding hours of labor. Armstrong Steel uses galvanized framing, stainless steel fasteners with a lifetime warranty, and designs that go together efficiently. Quality matters.
