Quonset Building
Strong arch-style steel buildings ideal for garages, workshops, farm storage, and more uses.
A Quonset building, or Quonset hut as it is commonly known, is one of the oldest pre-engineered building designs available, dating back to the United States’ involvement in World War II. These iconic semicircular structures, often seen in old war movies, have transcended their military roots to become versatile solutions for modern-day applications.
Quonset huts, with its simple yet strong steel arch form, can be used for a variety of functions. These structures, whether used as a barn, garage, workshop, or even a business storefront, provide flexibility that is only limited by your creativity. Their building requirements are straightforward and customization is simple due to their continuous arch design, which allows for a variety of sizes and combinations.
Quonset huts are valued for their ability to withstand adverse weather conditions such as strong winds and heavy snowfall. Their semicircular design naturally provides structural strength, making them an ideal choice for areas prone to inclement weather. The streamlined construction process of Quonset huts results in cost savings by requiring fewer materials and manpower than traditional buildings.
Cold Formed Steel (CFS)
Lightweight, durable steel frames perfect for shops, offices, garages, and quick builds.
A cold formed steel building is a structure constructed primarily using cold formed steel members.
Cold formed steel is made by rolling or pressing thin sheets of steel to form various shapes such as studs, beams, channels, and angles.
These steel members are then assembled and connected to create the framework of the building. Cold formed steel buildings are known for their durability, strength, and versatility.
They are often used in a variety of construction projects including residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural, and even institutional buildings. Because it is a reliable construction material and simple to install, cold formed steel is rapidly dominating the construction industry.
I-Beam Building
Heavy-duty steel buildings ideal for warehouses, factories, and large commercial projects.
I-Beam buildings are structures constructed using steel beams in the shape of an “I.”
These beams are known for their high strength-to-weight ratio, making them popular in construction for their ability to support heavy loads.
In an I-beam building, the main structural support comes from these steel beams, which are often arranged in a grid pattern to form the framework of the building.
Other components including braces, decking, and columns are attached to the beams to complete the structure.
These buildings are widely used in residential, commercial, and industrial construction due to their versatility & durability.
Prefabricated or pre-engineered steel buildings are structures manufactured off-site and then assembled on-site. These buildings are constructed using steel frames and fabricated according to the precise specifications and design requirements. The bulk of the labour, including welding and cutting is completed before the building is delivered, which expedites on-site assembly.
Steel buildings require minimal maintenance compared to structures made from other materials like wood, brick, or concrete. Some routine maintenance tasks can help ensure the longevity and structural integrity of your building. This includes regular inspections to identify issues early on, cleaning exterior surfaces to remove dirt, dust, and debris, and addressing rust and corrosion to prevent damages to the steel components.
Yes, we will provide you with three sets of certified engineered and foundational drawings stamped by a Canadian engineer. All steel building orders automatically receive a digital copy of their plans via email to be reviewed and approved to ensure accuracy before delivery.
The time it takes to erect a steel building can vary widely depending on factors such as the size and complexity of the building.
Smaller steel buildings are relatively straightforward and can often be erected quickly. Typically, it might take anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks, Medium sized steel buildings are a bit more complex and may require more time for assembly.
You can expect the erection process to take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months. Larger steel buildings are the most complex and can take a considerable amount of time to erect. It is not uncommon for the process to span several months to a year or more.
For our smaller structures, we can deliver your building to the site in as little as three weeks. For larger structures, depending on the complexity, the average delivery time typically ranges from 6 to 14 weeks.
