Heavy Duty Metal Buildings: Ideal Solutions for Industrial Applications

Whether you need an assembly or manufacturing facility, Armstrong Steel has your back with our heavy-duty metal buildings. Our prefabricated industrial steel structures are designed to ensure efficient workflows and productive work days every time. No matter your needs, our building consultants will help you customize your building and maximize your space. Unlike other fabricators, we don’t copy-and-paste designs — we always tailor our structures to suit your industrial requirements.

Do you wonder what makes a heavy-duty prefab metal building ideal for industrial settings? This blog has the answers so you can determine if it’s right for you.

Durable and reliable buildings

Every time we design a heavy-duty metal building, we consider our customer’s load-bearing and local building codes. Our engineering team will ensure the structure can withstand heavy snowfall, high winds, and rainwater. We consider the unique weather and seismic conditions in your area, too, ensuring your steel building can survive natural events, including earthquakes.

In addition, we consider the structure’s material strength and thickness, including the required force transmission. All this guarantees structurally sound prefabricated heavy-duty metal buildings that can survive anything — from natural events to maintenance loads.

Worry-free metal buildings

Our building systems ensure worry-free use for any industrial application. Steel is non-combustible, so you don’t have to worry about your facility burning down completely when there’s a fire.

We’re confident in the quality of our work, which is backed by industry-leading warranties you won’t find elsewhere. In addition to a 50-year structural warranty, we offer a 35-year rust-through perforation warranty on the roof. And for added peace of mind, we also provide a 40-year paint guarantee, ensuring that your building will maintain its appearance for many years to come.

Energy efficiency

Modern industrial buildings need to be energy efficient. At Armstrong Steel, we prioritize this when designing heavy-duty metal buildings. Our rigid steel frame structures can be insulated with advanced high-performance insulation systems to boost your facility’s energy efficiency, leading to more savings on cooling and heating costs.

Maintain optimum temperatures

Well-insulated steel buildings can also help maintain comfortable working conditions indoors, keeping your workers and equipment safe. The same goes for metal warehouses and storage facilities, so you don’t have to worry about mold and moisture problems.

Build quickly and efficiently.

Do you need a new industrial facility as soon as possible? Traditional construction with concrete and wood could take at least a few months to complete. Our prefabricated industrial steel buildings are quick and easy to build, reducing your project timeline. A simple structure with minimal customizations can be completed within a few weeks.

Quick assembly

Our industrial metal buildings may be heavy-duty structures, but that doesn’t mean they are difficult to assemble and erect. We provide detailed assembly drawings and anchor bolt patterns with our heavy-duty metal buildings. Plus, we customize a comprehensive erection guide to streamline the process.

After finalizing your design, our team will work on the wall and roof components in-house. Depending on your structure’s size and complexity, you can assemble it on your own or rely on steel building contractors.

Low labor costs

Armstrong Steel metal buildings are pre-engineered, ensuring each component is designed to fit seamlessly. This greatly decreases labor costs, saving you money. Plus, erecting the building is streamlined with pre-punched, bolt-together connections. We also numbered and cut most components to simplify assembly. Simply check your drawings to know where each part goes.

Customize your building

It may be an industrial structure, but that doesn’t mean it should look like a warehouse. At Armstrong Steel, we design heavy-duty metal buildings to work with all roof and wall designs to meet your aesthetic requirements. This means you can customize your structure with any material, including CMU, shingles, and brick. Likewise, it can be personalized with metal panels or stucco.

Another great thing about steel is that it allows flexibility in accommodating any exterior or interior finish. Our building consultants will ensure your industrial facility’s design is consistent with your branding and corporate image.

A building that adapts to your needs

We offer different framing systems to make your building adaptable to your changing or growing requirements. The clear-span design lets you maximize the interior height and width for any application. Our engineering staff and building consultants will work with you to finish the interior, whether you require a warehouse or manufacturing plant or some retail and office spaces.

Expand your building with ease.

Expansions are also easier with heavy-duty metal buildings. The framing systems can be extended lengthwise or crosswise in many ways, eliminating the need for a time-consuming and expensive renovation.

Buildings with long-term value

Compared to traditional construction, our heavy-duty metal buildings are proven to hold their value and aesthetics well. This is all thanks to our precise engineering and ability to customize the building to meet your local codes and loads. Our structures are also covered by warranties, so you don’t have to worry if anything happens.
