In brief, our prefab steel building system incorporates a rugged 2” x 3” rectangular 14 gauge
triple layered galvanized steel frame
as the basic frame component in all our steel carports, garages,
workshops, greenhouses, RV covers, boat housing, loafing sheds
and horse barns. The
galvanized framing is FLO-COAT finished which gives the steel
twice the salt spray life and twice the rust protection as G-90
galvanized!
As you can see, our framing system
is far superior to all other typical frames on the market.
There are several key differences.
First, we incorporate a smooth mandrel bend at the eve
and peak section of the steel truss system.
This results in an all engineered superior quality
product. This particular style offers significantly greater
strength and a better look than the typical crush bend used by
other manufacturers who use weaker square or round tubing.
The factory's unique "Slip-Fit" design
dramatically simplifies the installation process. This patented
"swaged" manufacturing technique combines ease of
assembly with the strength and durability of structural steel. Our use of a
mandrel bending system results in a cleaner look, and a much stronger
bend transition.
All of our steel buildings and metal garage kits
use heavy-duty 2" x 3" rectangular triple layered galvanized steel
framing with guaranteed
minimum yield strength of 65,000 PSI. The triple layer
galvanized protection
provides a smooth, economical solution that resists rust longer than
any pre-galvanized or electroplated tubing product - in addition
to termite and rot resistance.
