Building Specifications
Comprised of the strongest, highest-quality steel available in the American market, this metal shop and garage features 712 feet of 29-gauge hi-rib wall panels and an arch-style design, meaning it has no interior trusses or posts, freeing up more room for employees to park or work on automobiles. Following a simple, affordable erection process, the metal arch building stands 40’x98’ in size, while its arched Galvalume roof offers ample protection from above, protecting cars and trucks against corrosion and the elements.
Both the front and rear ends of the arch building are open and have flashing, which prevents water from trickling in and causing mold or moisture-related damage. The arch building also boasts a 110-mph wind speed rating; a customization made in consideration of the climate patterns common across Vernon as well as the building code requirements in effect across the region.
