Steel Building in Anchorage, Alaska
Sunward Steel Buildings, Inc., was the fabricator and provider of this pre-engineered steel building in Anchorage, Alaska, in October of 2004.
These days, the durable, multifunctional metal building serves double-duty as a showroom and retail store for the Alaska House of Yamaha, a Big Lake, Alaska-based dealer of motorcycles, ATVs, snowmobiles, trailers, watercraft, parts and more. In addition to offering a wide inventory of new and used bikes and toys, the dealer also provides repair and maintenance services for the products it sells, with all jobs performed by highly trained factory technicians who are well-versed in stock and performance motorsports.
Yamaha Dealership Details
Designed to offer the utmost strength and durability given Alaska’s long, cold winters and other climate considerations, the steel building features premium-grade steel construction and stands 60’x80’x14’ in size. Easy and cheap to erect, the building features a clear-span design that maximizes space for showroom inventory, and overhead, a corrosion-resistant metal roof with a 4:12 pitch protects the interior of the metal motorsports dealership from the Alaskan elements.
The metal building also features some additional customizations made in adherence to local building codes and in consideration of Alaska’s typical climate patterns. Further enhancing the building’s overall durability are a 100-mph wind speed rating and a high, 50-pound snow load.
Reliable, Multifunctional Commercial Construction Solutions
Rugged and engineered to maintain its structural integrity in the face of extreme weather, heavy snowfall and other notable Alaska construction hazards, pre-engineered steel commercial buildings can accommodate businesses of virtually any type, and they tend to be more affordable to purchase and raise than most alternatives.
They also require significantly less than wood buildings in terms of upkeep, generally needing only an occasional power wash to retain their good looks over time. This particular metal showroom and retail operation provides a safe, all-season space to store inventory and service motorcycles, snowmobiles and other products available at the Alaska House of Yamaha and has served as a valuable business asset for more than 15 years.
The largest city in the state of Alaska, Anchorage sits at the terminus of the Cook Inlet, in south-central Alaska. The city lies about 43 miles from Wasilla and roughly 113 miles south of Talkeetna.
