Anatomy of a Metal Building

The diagram below will familiarize you with the parts and pieces that make up a steel building using standard industry terms

We use advanced computer technology to create a custom-designed metal building for each customer’s specific specifications and project location. No matter what you call it, a steel building system features structural steel and cladding components and related accessories, professionally designed to act as an integrated building system.

The building system utilizes rigid frames or columns and beams as the primary structural elements. Manufactured in a controlled environment, the metal building components are delivered directly to the construction site, where they go together faster and more efficiently. Today’s steel building systems look very different from their predecessors. Extremely versatile, the building can incorporate many different architectural finishes to provide the look required for applications such as churches, schools, shopping centers, office buildings, and more. Steel building systems offer cost-effective and efficient low-rise buildings for a wide array of uses and have significant cost advantages over many other building types.
